Hi- Baron passed away on July 22, 2011. He was 15 years and 5 months old. He was stubborn, pushy, demanding, loyal, loving and absolutely the best “person” I ever knew. I wish you had know him your life would have been better for it. I will miss him every day as long as I live.

It not like I am an owner missing his pet, I feel like the pet that is missing his owner.

Hi !! I'm BARON.  This is the story of my life. I'm over to 15 years old now. I was born on February 14, 1996 so I'm a Valentines Schnauzer. My long name is:

Sketchbook Knight In Armour

It's sort of a mix between armor and amour. I'm a Standard Schnauzer. That means in German I have a standard big nose and that I'm ALOT smarter than you. It really does. I know these type of things.

My Dad helped me create my web pages on my iMac but my pages are better than his. 

 

I was born in Kampsville, IL. Its pretty neat because you get to drive your car on a special yacht to cross this big moat to get there. I was born in a white castle on the side of a really tall mountain that overlooks the moat. The castle was guarded by me and my eight brothers and sisters of the round table. My brother Breaker and I left the castle in a big white chariot to move to Alabama and claim it for ourselves. Dad says I made this all up, but its true....  Would this face lie to you?

My Schnauzer moms name is CH Sketchbook Speak Softly (Keeper) and my Schnauzer Dad is CH Sketchbook Business Report (Busby). I come from Sketchbook Standard Schnauzers and my breeders name is Liz Hansen (sketchbk@aol.com). Liz Hansen was the secretary of the Standard Schnauzer Club of America. I think that means all the Standard Schnauzers can dictate letters to her until they learn to type for themselves.

I finished Puppy Obedience training in May 1996. That's where I trained Dad to obey me. I also had a beginners obedience class, but Dad missed class to go to the Olympics so now I'm a little behind. Sometimes when I don't listen to Dad he says I'm a big behind. I don't get it??

I moved to Mason Ohio in September 1998. I live three miles from King's Island !!! They named a roller coaster after me there. Its called "The Beast". I like Ohio. Its not as hot as my old home in Alabama and there is a lot to do here.

I guard my dads home when he isn't here. I also do important things for dad like make the grocery list for him and backup our computer and make sure dad has cold beer in the refrigerator.   Of course, I only do this when I am taking a break from writing my first book, "Baron: The Way a Dog Ought to Be".

My dad just got a new Nikon D7000 Digital Camera so he says he will put allot of pictures of me sleeping in my LazyBoy this year! Wait, someone gave my LazyBoy chair away.  Plus he got me a new MacBook Pro to play with when he’s not home.

I have been a little sick lately. I am still bouncy but my body is starting to have problems so I spent a lot of time with the vet now.

Its almost my16th birthday!
