This adorable little gremlin is a 9 lb, 7 year old mini schnauzer - yes , you read correctly, 9 lbs.  He is listed on his paperwork as a toy schnauzer but we know that officially, there is no such thing.   He is in excellent health and boy, does he have a lot of spunk!  He has a strong prey drive so if you have small animals or birds, this would not be the dog for you.  He would most likely make a great watch dog but if someone comes into the home he is immediately their friend (just don't let the burglar know that - lol)  He is very friendly, loving and a great all around companion.  Fritz's ideal home would be with someone who is home most of the time, has a desire to spend time with him on training, and lots of daily walks and exercise!
