In 1880 Germany published it's first Schnauzer Standards and listed "white with black Patches" at the end of the
color catalog. It appears that Schnauzers with white and black patches existed back then, although not in large
quantities, because the first book of breeds does not contain a single Schnauzer with this color pattern.
Furthermore, the subject of patched dogs was not raised by Schnauzer enthusiasts until the 1930s. However, on
September 4, 1929, a litter of black miniature Schnauzers was born at the "Abbagamba" kennel belonging to
Countess v. Kanitz in Podangen (East Prussia), Germany. This litter included three white and black parti
(schecken in German) puppies. The parents of these puppies had demonstrably been purebred black for six
generations (although nobody knows whether these six generations already contained animals with large white
patterns which were quickly removed by the breeders).
The Countess was certain that no "misalliance" had taken place – as was implied bluntly on several occasions –
and she decided to take a chance breeding these parti (schecken) dogs. She did the only sensible thing: pairing
the siblings "Ilfis" and "Isluga". The mating produced the three parti (Schecken) puppies "Moira," "Modiala," and
"Medina," just as anyone with the slightest background in genetics would have predicted. Another incestuous
mating involving the dogs "Liara" and "Leander" from the second generation of parti (schecken) dogs again
produced six beautifully developed Parti (schecken) puppies.
This was proof that pure breeding of parti (schecken) dogs was possible. The club members viewed this
phenomenon with skepticism.
Litters of purebred black parents commonly produce puppies with white markings on the toe tips, at the chin, on
the chest and at the tip of the tail. This is caused by the so-called "prenatal pigment stop."These markings
disappear in the first few weeks.
However, this is often the beginning of the parti (schecken) pattern and if animals with these permanent white
patches are mating with one another, the markings of the offspring will normally be significantly larger than those
the parents have.
The disposition for white patches is recessively inherited. Paired with an animal without this disposition, the parti
(schecken) pattern does not appear because the disposition for full pigmentation dominates over the disposition
for white patches. However, the disposition can be imparted invisibly from single-colored animals across several
generations until one day - as luck would have it – a carrier of this genetic trait mates with a partner whose
genetic material also contains this disposition.
In 1933, during the general meeting of the Schnauzer-Pinscher Club, the German group "Ostland" asked for
recognition of the parti (schecken) dogs of Countess Kanitz, which had meanwhile been purebred for three
generations. However, the meeting rejected the request, reasoning, " this creation or emergence of spotted dogs
contrary to the rules is not yet scientifically proven."

| Origin of the Parti-Colored Schnauzers |
| Translated from German into English. |
Did you Know that:
1. Parti Schnauzers were listed in 1880 as black & white patched Schnauzers in the last pages of the German Schnauzer
Standard of Breeds of the Pinscher Schnauzer Klub (PSK) Germany.
2. The first official recognition and registration of Parti Schnauzers was in Germany 1929 by Abbaganda Kennel. Parti
Schnauzers were recognized by the German Pinscher Schnauzer Klub which lasted only 4 years.
3. During the Third Reich in 1933 it was decided by the board members of the Pinscher Schnauzer Klub to ban the Parti
Schnauzers from all future registrations although they had already been accepted for 4 years. Partis colors were being
kicked out from the PSK Klub
Two reasons given for the Parti Schnauzer ban in 1933
I. The emerging of patched dogs is not yet scientifically proven.
Limited or no knowledge existed back then about DNA and Genetic.
II. Concern that Parti colors would be confused with the Wire Haired Fox Terrier.
The Fox Terrier became popular in 1930 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wire_Fox_Terrier.
Board members of the German Pinscher Schnauzer Klub stated that the appearance of the
Parti Schnauzers and the Wired Haired Fox Terrier were too similar. This would create
confusion to the public between the two breeds and would therefor have negative outcomes for
the Miniature Schnauzer breed. The Parti breeder of the Abbaganda Kennel was outraged and the accused
the board members of undemocratic and communistic nonsense because Partis were never crossed with Fox
Terriers and 100% Schnauzers. The lame excuse of the Fox Terrier was absolutely most ridiculous and absurd.
The Board comforted Abbaganda Kennel with the promise to create a separate breed for the
Parti Schnauzers in the future but World War II got in the way. As of today this has not happened and
the Parti Schnauzers are still being color discriminated.
