Geistvoll Fridenweizer, affectionately known as Weizer, was our first Standard Schnauzer. Her name is composed of "Friden" from Kathi's maiden name of Fridenstine and "weizer" from Budweiser. She was an accomplished traveler in the air, in a car, and in a raft. She accompanied us on many back packing trips and carried her own pack too.
Her favorite past time, which was chasing squirrels, was also her down fall. She injured her back by standing on her hind legs and barking up into the trees at the "visiting" squirrels. However, a bad back did not send her to the rainbow bridge, mouth cancer did.
She was the pack leader and would let every new pup that entered our Schnauzer home know that.

Weizer is distracted while watching for cats and other small vermin.

The snow was so deep, that Weizer could not get to the trees to chase squirrels.
