Giant Schnauzers are sometimes acquired without any clear understanding of what goes into owning one, and these dogs often end up in the care of rescue groups, in need of adoption or fostering. If you're interested in adopting an adult Giant Schnauzer who's already gone through the destructive puppy stage and may already be trained, a rescue group is a good place to start.
