Make sure your groomer NEVER leaves your Miniature Schnauzer unattended on the table or places your Miniature Schnauzer with cable attached in a kennel. - Remove your Miniature Schnauzer's collar while he is at play with another animal in the privacy of your fenced in backyard. Dogs at play can easily become entangled causing them harm or death by strangulation.
- The most difficult collar to remove in an emergency situation is the belt-buckle style collar. Refrain from using this type of collar on your Miniature Schnauzer.
