I heard that Mini Schnauzers were noisy and that almost put me off getting one
Luckily my two are not yappy - last week I had a delivery arrive, and it was put in the shed by the driver (I left instructions when I ordered, thinking I would be out!). The first I knew about it was when the dogs strolled over to the patio doors and watched him with waggng tails and not a sound!!
From an early age I discouraged Daisy from barking, distracting her with food or toys - and with her loving food it was easy!! When Leo arrived he followed her lead - but after dark they change into "guard dogs" when someone comes to the door, and Leo esecially has a deep bark for a little dog.
