Giants are NOT what the OP is looking forNot all schnauzers are small. You're probably thinking of miniature, but there's also standard (40ish pounds) and giant (65-90 pounds). Not sure about energy levels, but it might be worth looking into.
Also, what about a Sheltie? Samoyed? Keeshond? I'll keep thinking.
Often trained for bite sports, they are high energy, and very high strung
Shelties are too yappy.
