She is to die for a very pretty baby I love her. I had a pure silver min always said some day maybe a Giant and maybe some day. How old?

Thanks Anette, we love her, but Kahlo is truly stunning…
You don't see very many Giant Schnauzers here in the states, or should I say in Texas, before I came here in the early 90's, being born and bred in Sweden, there were lots of them..very cool breed.. -

Thank you! I love her, of course. :D
There are not to many Giants in norway either - they are much more populare in sweden, and I think there are a lot of very good breeders in sweden. So my next gian will come from pure working lines from sweden. Kahlo is to weak mentally to be a good working dog - so we are just goofing around and having fun. And I think she will love to have her own little basenji as her little brother. :D

Just out of my own complete ignorance, what are working Schnauzers used for? :o

In sweden they are used in police work, IPO (shutz - not completly the same - but similare program), obedience, what we call "bruks", dont really know the amerikan word for it, programs containing obedience, seach after items, tracking, searh for persons and so on. And of course rescue dogs. We have some good giants breed in norway in rescue and IPO but most of them comes from working lines from sweden or elswhere in europe. Swedish breeders are generally much more likly to test there breeding dogs and offsprings mentally to see what kind of dogs they are making (this is general for all "working" breeds in sweden compared to norwegian breeders, not just giants).
Pardon my bad english…

Your welcome. And good my english is readable.
Kahlo is a great dog, don't get me wrong. She is just nok "enough" dog - she is to shy and dont like people she dosen't know, can't be left alone and stuff like that. So to try to train and push her is not right - so we just train for fun and enjoys life the way she can handle it. :)
