I can't stand Chows either, very unpredictable.
Your Schnauzer sounds just like mine, Missie does not put up with any crap from the pups. She is already 13 and probably won't be with us much longer, one of the best dogs I have ever had.

I'll tell you another thing about Ol'Sparky, he would kill a rat in a heartbeat. When we first moved to Georgia, the place I bought was quite run down & had several chicken houses that were no longer any good. I picked up peice of tin sheeting and upset a nest of rats, Sparky killed 9 rats in less than in a minute. That's no lie, he kept the Rat poplulation down. I miss the little joker.
If you do some research on Minature Schnauzers you will find that one of the reasons they were bred was specifically for catching rats.

Chows are no more unpredictable than any other dog, with proper discipline and training. Chows are very independant and intelligent and aren't terribly motivated to please their people. You have to be more stubborn and determined than the Chow.
