Schnauzers can be bred when they are in heat for the first time 6-9 months after birth, but it is not recommended to breed during this period because the various body functions of Schnauzers are not fully developed at this time. Pregnancy is risky for the dog. It is best to breed at 14-15 months, which is when the second heat comes. At this time, the Schnauzer's body is relatively mature and can withstand the pressure of pregnancy.

Schnauzer Breeding Precautions

1. Schnauzer breeding time can be determined based on the performance of estrus. Schnauzer female dogs are constantly approaching male dogs and their labia will be swollen. When the dog is everted, the vaginal secretions change from red to yellow, and the dog is willing to accept the male dog climbing on it, the breeding can be started.

2. When the Schnauzer is in heat, two dogs can be raised together in advance to familiarize each other and deepen their relationship, so as to promote smoother mating of the dogs.

3. Do not let Schnauzers mate frequently, so as not to affect the health of the dog and its puppies.

4. The breeding place should be quiet and clean. Drinking water or strenuous exercise should not be done immediately after breeding.
