The look

If there is one thing I have worked very hard on since I was a puppy it is this. Wait for it, you'll be really impressed with my knowledge and use of this phrase. Non verbal communication. See, doesn't that sound full of schnauzery importance?

Now I am fully prepared to admit that one of my favourite things to do is bark, whether or not my listeners appreciate my skill at it.

However, I also know that I can say a lot with just a look. It is not by accident that we schnauzers have big brown eyes and devilish good looks.

I have devoted a lot of time to perfecting "the look" and let me tell you, my success with it knows no bounds. I have successfully lobbied to be brought to Grandma's, out for walks, to have just one more treat or a taste of that chicken. It s fool proof.

You believe me, don't you?
