DOG FAQ - Is there such a thing as a Silver Miniature Schnauzer?

When the Salt and Peppers are machine-clipped, the characteristic banded hairs disappear and they become a solid shade of gray, which can vary from a very light gray to dark slate gray. Some people will refer to Miniature Schnauzer that have a very light gray undercoat as ‘Silver’, but they are officially Salt and Pepper. When a lighter Salt and Pepper is machine-clippered, the resulting undercoat can look almost silver. Once the dog has been clippered, what is left is the solid undercoat.
