The standard says it all: "the typical Miniature Schnauzer is alert and spirited, yet obedient to command. He is friendly, intelligent and willing to please. He should never be overaggressive or timid." The Miniature Schnauzer is generally sweet, loving and loyal. They often have a favorite person, even though they will love the whole family. They will bark when someone comes to the door. Properly trained, though, they will stop when the owner indicates that the person at the door is welcome and not a threat. Miniature Schnauzers are generally intelligent and learn quickly. Many have excelled in formal obedience trials and are seen more and more in agility competitions. Though the breed was not originally bred to 'go-to-ground' for prey, he will gladly chase rodents wherever they go, including under ground. Miniature Schnauzers are eligible to participate in earthdog trials and some excel at them.
