Schnauzer (Detailed Introduction)

        Schnauzers are most often nicknamed “little old man,” which indeed sums up their image well. Their long white beard really makes them look like an elderly person, but this is exactly the charm of this breed. So, if your Schnauzer’s beard becomes yellow or red, we should consider methods to make the Schnauzer’s beard turn white again.

        There are many reasons that cause the Schnauzer’s beard to discolor, such as not wiping the beard when eating, oxidization from wet beard after drinking water, the dog’s own coat color that makes the beard prone to discoloration, and lack of trace elements (VE, VC) in food leading to physiological hair discoloration. These are all due to owner’s neglect. If you want your Schnauzer's beard to turn white and restore its beautiful appearance, you must commit to regular grooming.

        1. If you’re not feeding dog kibble, first improve your Schnauzer’s diet to ensure more balanced nutrition, guaranteeing sufficient intake of trace elements that maintain the beautiful coat color. These are key to whitening the Schnauzer’s beard.

        2. Change bad habits of neglecting the Schnauzer’s beard. If possible, buy a dog-specific water dispenser so your Schnauzer drinks with its head raised, avoiding frequent wetting of the beard. Also, keep the beard clean after feeding and drinking.

        Maintaining clean and white Schnauzer beard is inseparable from daily diet and care. If the hair around the mouth is wet, it’s best to dry it off or blow-dry as soon as possible. Of course, daily cleaning is also indispensable.
