Schnoodles mix the charm and humor of both of their parent breeds: the Poodle and the Schnauzer. These cute little dogs love being part of the family and demand your attention. If they are not getting enough, you can expect to hear about it. Full-grown, they typically weigh 20-75 pounds and stand 10-26 inches tall.

Schnoodles are generally excellent with children of all ages. The Schnoodle gets along well with children, strangers, dogs, and other pets. It’s a happy breed that loves being part of the family. They're relatively quiet and don't bark much.

Schnoodles need an average amount of exercise, with larger pups requiring a bit more than the smaller ones. Whether it’s going for a daily walk, running by your side, or just playing indoors, they’ll take as much activity as they can get. Many dogs in this breed also enjoy playing fetch, tug of war, and swimming. Overall, their exercise needs are high.

The Schnoodle may have a rough and wiry coat like the Schnauzer, a soft Poodle coat, or anything in between. Some have alternating patches of soft and coarse hair, with coarse fur on the back and soft on fur on top of the head. There are a wide variety of possible colors, including black, brown, grey, white, apricot, or a mixture. Grooming-wise, this breed is low-maintenance.

Schnoodles are best suited for a home with a yard, though they can adapt to apartment life with enough exercise. They’re the perfect size for apartment living, but if they live in a home with a yard, they should be kept as indoor pets so they get enough attention and companionship. They are fairly easy to train.
