So you want a Giant Schnauzer puppy,

will you want it all its life?

Will it be all-important, like family and wife?

Will you handle it with gentleness and pat it when it’s good

And see its water’s always fresh and that it’s got good food

Will you train it kindly and brush it every day

And provide it with a clean dry bed where it can go and lay

Will you teach the children that they too must be kind?

And if he takes their toys, they really must not mind

Will you train it on a lead, to sit and walk to heel?

Not drag it on a choke chain with all the pain to feel.

Will you teach obedience, to come when its afar

To lay and stay if needed and be good when in the car.

And when it’s learnt these lessons and loves you all so true

Will you thank the day he came to live with you.

And when it’s old and feeble and life has passed it by

Your family broken hearted and not an eye is dry.

If you can answer, YES my friend, to all that I have said

Then you deserve a Giant Schnauzer, the best one ever bred.

But if you have read my questions and cannot answer true,

Please don’t have a puppy, it’s not fair to him or

you.
