Congrats congrats!!!
What's her name?
Yeah... when i got my pup also she is ungroomed... originally i wanted to leave it like that, coz look cuter... like teddy bear. But then very hot for her coz she don't stay in aircond room. If she's staying in aircond room then should be ok gua...
But if ungroomed oso ok gua, got many ppl leave their pups ungroomed until finish vaccination... just see your pref. If she's hot she'll know how to cool herself down... like lie down on the marble floor or sit under the fan.
If you happen to want to groom her... a piece of advice... dont send her to the pet shop to groom. I did that mistake, but lucky she never catch any virus. I just oni groom her second time, Jason help me. Very good service plus he comes to your house, so no need worry she get exposed to any virus/bact.
Good luck in the training, and take good care of her! Such a great addition to the family before CNY.
Hope that we'll have a gathering soon for all our puppies and the adults to meet up

i gv my new MS name Miki
Yeah, she is a good addition before CNY and oso the velentine for my gf n i

No problem with letting the pup go ungroomed

The Schnauzer look is just the breed standard (which is hand stripped, and most of us do clipping, so that's already not meeting the standard

). Since most of us don't show our dogs anyways, it's not a problem for them to be ungroomed until you want to change their look. Just make sure the fur between the paws and between the eyes are trimmed so that your pup can get a better grip on the floor and not get lots of gunk in the eyes from the fur poking it

thanks Rayne, u such a kind person that willing to answer people's doubt
