I have 2 mini's Shotzie and Fritz and both are spoiled. I clip them and also brush their teeth a couple of times a week. I really love this breed because they don't shed and are excellent watch dogs.
This is the only breed I ever had since my first schnauzer in 1978 I named her Whiskers; my other schnauzers names were Pepper and Heidi. They are really good companions and are ready to do what you want them to do. Mine like going for walks, chewing rawhide, and playing with their stuffed animal toys.
Shotzie's favorite toy is a skunk.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
