What's a Snoodle?
Thanks, Nicola, for writing in and providing great info on Snoodles. I am really surprised their behaviors are so much like Giant Schnauzers!

I’ve been hearing about this new trend with mixing Poodle and different dog breeds. Honestly, I don’t understand the Chihuahua and Poodle mix … But I’ll try to keep an open mind until I see one.
I’ve heard about the Schnauzer-Poodle mix and recently met one online at Dogster. Elvis is from New Zealand, and he’s just as lovely as can be!
I love the story behind the name Elvis. From his Dogster profile,
“Elvis got his name because of a text from my mum, who had just got out of hospital (she called it jail). So of course, dog with funny hair, good pelvic wriggle and the jail-house rock all equal “Elvis” …”

great pet product recommendations
ThisNext.com just launched their Pet Shopping Guide and it’s filled with super great stuff, all of which were recommended pet lovers. It is totally worth checking out. If you like to show what’s on your list, all you have to do is sign up and recommend your own favorites. It is super easy. All you have to do is cut and paste the URL. That’s probably the hardest task (My list is on this site via the fancy flash banner, which was easily created on ThisNext via their ShopCast widget (check out my flash badge For the Love of Dogs. To your right and below the navigation menu).

God, I hate it when she's bored...
Anyway, the background article on Giant Schnauzer’s could be the same for the Giant Schnoodle. They need loads of love, affection and EXERCISE. I run my boy as much as possible, at the least an hour a day and this is not nearly enough.
We now have an 20 month old daughter, who also demands a lot of attention and time. Elvis is very good with her, but size and playfulness are a concern, so I always watch the two of them together.
He’s knocked over a couple of children due to exuberence and vast size, rather than malevolence.
I’d say if you have the time, no children and love dogs, this cross or “designer” breed is great. I have put a lot of time into training and establishing who’s the alpha in the house (that’s me). But I must say, he’s still given to having a bout of deafness when the swallows are flying in the fields… he loves to chase them.
