Do you have to clip a Miniature Schnauzer?

【Expert answer】
Any Q

The Miniature Schnauzer is not a “wash and wear” dog. They do require regular grooming every 4-6 weeks. This breed does require frequent brushing and combing, nail trimming, ear cleaning, as well as clipping or hand stripping.


Should schnauzers be clipped?

Keep coat looking neat by clipping your Schnauzer every 6 weeks. During the winter months, keep your dog's coat a little longer and just trim up areas needing attention. Groom (i.e. brush, trim nails, etc.) and bathe your Schnauzer between full body cuts.

When should I first groom my mini schnauzer?

Officially it is best to wait until your new puppy is 8-weeks old, and can leave their mother before you consider getting them groomed. Once the puppy has been introduced to its new home and has established relations with the new owner they can think about getting the puppy groomed.

Why do Schnauzers need to be groomed?

Miniature Schnauzer Grooming Needs Because of their double coats and inability to shed properly, Miniature Schnauzers require fairly constant grooming. They need their coats clipped or hand stripped, the latter of which can be a very time-consuming process that is usually reserved for show dogs.
