We adopted a spirited male puppy from Barbara’s schnauzer litter born on Feb 3, 2012. We named him Ludo (from the German name Ludwig which means “fearless warrior”). We wanted a name with German roots since he has German ancestry.
Ludo has been a joy since the day we met him. He crate trained very easily, in fact he has slept in his own bed every night since he came home.
Recently, we undertook a 3 day, 3 night road trip to Grand Canyon and Las Vegas with Ludo and my parents. We stayed in pet friendly hotels along the way. Ludo took very well to travelling in a crate for long distances with rest stops in between. He did great! And we ended up having a wonderful holiday!
His intelligence amazes me everyday. And he is a great companion to my almost 5 year old son.
I feel much safer working from home with him by my side. The other day, we had some solicitors come to our door and the moment, they heard Ludo bark, they didn’t bother to wait, but just got in their car and drove away.
My, this Schnauzer has a bark that can give a German Shephard a complex!
Looking forward to spending many happy years with our new family member!
