Exercise Needs

Active walks or playful running will effectively engage a Giant Schnauzer. Incorporating training sessions and fun activities will keep these energetic dogs content. Remember, they are unfazed by rain or wind—when it’s time for an adventure, they’re ready to go, regardless of the weather.
Space Requirements

Dirt, mud, water, and grime can quickly become trapped in a Giant Schnauzer’s fur, so many owners think it’s helpful to have a big, special area for grooming and bathing. These dogs are quite large, and although they can relax indoors, they really enjoy playing in a spacious, enclosed yard. They can be quite vocal and have strong opinions, making it wise to have a place that’s not too close to other homes. The sounds of city living can overwhelm them, so they thrive better in suburban or rural settings.
