DOG FAQ - Why not a White Miniature Schnauzer?

The Miniature Schnauzer was developed to be an identical version of the Standard Schnauzer. The Standard Schnauzer has never come in the white color. Our history of the evolvement of the breed indicate that there probably were introductions of other breeds to reduce the size of the original breed. The originators of the breed recommended not breeding the whites and parti-colors that appeared. This was to preserve the breed as it was intended. The original German standard for the breed did not include whites; thus, the US standard stays true to the wishes of the originators of the breed.
