That picture was taken just after her daddy brought her home. I think the pic looks worse than it actually was at the time, but it was shortly after her ears were cropped (not his choice, it was done before he got her). I think she would've had those adorable schnauzer ears that always stand straight up had they not been cropped.
What a pretty girl Angel is. I bet she and Pepper are GREAT friends! The first time I saw a white Schnauzer, I thought it was a Westie, too. Now, I'm learning that they are gaining in popularity. I also like the black and white Schnauzers, too. Lots of love and tummy rubs to you, sweet Angel!
