Abstract
The schnauzer comedo syndrome (SCS) is a visually distinctive dermatosis of miniature schnauzers. The SCS was diagnosed in 16 dogs, accounting for 0.2% of the canine dermatology cases and 0.04% of the canine hospital population over an 11-year-period. Interestingly, only 2 of the dogs were presented for only the SCS, and 12 (75%) of the owners had not previously noticed the SCS. Follow-up information was available for 10 (62%) of the dogs, and the SCS was unchanged for 3 months to 9 years.
