Traits of schnoodles are consistent and distinct. If you own more than one schnoodle either at one time or in succession, you will notice these same behaviors and characteristics from dog to dog. True, every dog is unique, but like humans have similarities among races, so does the breed of schnoodle. Being aware of these traits will help raise and care for your schnoodle all that plenty more.
One of the traits of schnoodles that stands out is the need to establish dominance. It is always more noticeable in male dogs. Pretty plenty what happens is an alternative new dog will approach the schnoodle. The schnoodle will growl and bark and maybe even jump on the other dog (sometimes three times its size) just trying to establish that he/she is the top dog around here. This only lasts a couple minutes. After that, the other dog and the schnoodle always break apart and begin doing their own thing.
Intelligence is also one of the traits of schnoodles. They have been known to remember names of toys, adamantly tell you they want food, and even watch TV enough to see whats on. Yes, TV. If a schnoodle see an alternative animal on the TV, these dogs are known t bark and jump at the TV thinking they are specific somewhere.
As said above, schnoodles are smart. They are definitely smart enough to cling to the household member who feeds them. If there are kids around, and they dont ever get the chance to feed them, then schnoodle will never deem them as disciplinarians or anyone they should obey. Therefore, to get kids used to your schnoodle and vice versa, have the kids feed your dog. Have them feed the dog food preferably. You also can try having the kids give the dogs a treat.
Of the entire traits of schnoodles, this one is the most noticeable. Schnoodles have a really aggressive sounding bark, but are never as physically aggressive as their bark may sound. You need to be very aware of just how aggressive sounding you dog is, especially when encountering other dogs. The dominance tendency wants to be top dog and the aggressive barking can in fact help with that. The problem is the owner of the other dog may misinterpret your schnoodles barking as just pure aggression. All you can do is reassure the other dog owner that your schnoodle may sound a marginally mean, but they are not dangerous and will not cause any harm to their dog. The schnoodle is simply thinking or want to be the dominant one. After quite a lot of minutes, the schnoodle will calm down and might even begin to ignore the other dog.
Listing all these traits of schnoodles is not meant to deter you from getting one for yourself. It is only meant as a guide in how to care for a schnoodle. They are great pets and companions. Owning a schnoodle will in fact bring joy to your life and fill the gap of very loyal friend.
