Likes: Bella loves to play with other dogs. Always. Even if they don't want to play. Pet-Peeves: She hates having her ears pulled, and she always feels a need to stick her face between my wife and I if I ever go in for a kiss. Perhaps thats more of a pet-peeve of mine. Favorite Toy: The most recent one she just finished gutting. We know she's finished when we find it all over the house in pieces. Its like a ceremonial spreading of ashes in honor of the deceased toy. Favorite Food: Natural Balance with any wet food mix-in. Favorite Walk: Anytime she gets out she's happy. When we walk at night, she likes being let off-leash when we walk through the neighborhood golf course (don't tell the HOA). We always pick up her poo...just to let you know! Best Tricks: She drinks water from the bowl and then "paints" everyone around with her wet beard. Another pet peeve of mine if you want the truth. Arrival Story: My wife and I did a great deal of research on various Giant Schnauzer breeders and finally chose a very reputable lady in Pennsylvania. As luck would have it, our sister and brother-in-law were packing up to move from PA to Arizona the same time Bella was to be ready to picked up. My wife flew out to help them pack and returned a week later with the puppy. I've Been On Dogster Since:
