Schnauzer Dog Figurine - 5"

Description

A Schnauzer is a dog breed type that originated in Germany from the 14th to 16th centuries. The term comes from the German word for "snout" and means colloquially "moustache", or "whiskered snout", because of the dog's distinctively bearded snout. Initially it was called Wire-Haired Pinscher, while Schnauzer was adopted in 1879. The standard colors for most schnauzers are either black or salt and pepper. The miniature schnauzer also comes in black and silver. The black-and-silver variation differs from the salt and pepper in that a salt-and-pepper-colored schnauzer has a coat evenly mixed with black and white hairs, whereas a black-and-silver colored schnauzer is mostly black with silver on its face, feet, and chest.
