Though he may be selective with his human friends, those who earn his trust are rewarded with unwavering loyalty and affection. Puppy Personality Traits Coco is a thoughtful and discerning Schnauzer, known for his selective nature when it comes to people. While he can be reserved with strangers, once he forms a bond, he becomes a devoted and affectionate friend. Coco enjoys mental stimulation and thrives on activities that challenge his sharp mind. He loves being around his chosen human companions, often shadowing them with a wagging tail and a watchful eye.
