He is busy, inquisitive, playful, bold and brash. He retains terrier-like traits and tends to be stubborn and independent. He may chase small animals and can be reserved with strangers. Miniature Pinscher Dog Care The min pin needs lots of activity. Because of his small size, his exercise needs can be met indoors or out; regardless, he needs several play sessions every day. He enjoys a romp outdoors in a safe area, but hates the cold.

This is not a breed to live outdoors. His coat is virtually carefree, requiring only occasional brushing to remove dead hair.

The miniature pinscher is not a miniature version of the Doberman pinscher. In fact, he is the older of the two breeds. Clues about the min pin's origin are scarce, but it is noteworthy that a cat-sized red dog resembling a min pin is depicted in a 17th-century painting. By the 19th century, several paintings include dogs of distinct the min pin type. These dogs probably resulted from crossing a small shorthaired terrier (German pinscher) with the dachshund and Italian greyhound. Many of the traits from these breeds can be seen in today's min pins: the strong body structure, feistiness and black and tan coloration of the German pinscher;

the fearlessness and red coloration of the dachshund; and the elegance, playfulness and lithe movement of the Italian greyhound. Yet the miniature pinscher is more than the sum of his parts; he is perhaps the world's most energetic breed! These little German spitfires were developed into a distinct breed, the reh pinscher in the early 1800s, so named because of their resemblance to the small red German roe (reh) deer. Pinscher simply means terrier. The emphasis in the late 1800s was on breeding the tiniest specimens, resulting in crippled ugly dogs. Fortunately, the trend was reversed, and by 1900, the emphasis had returned to elegance and soundness. The min pin quickly became one of the most competitive and popular show dogs in pre-World War I Germany, but after the war, the breed experienced a plunge in numbers. His future was left to those dogs that had been exported before the war. His popularity continued to grow in America, and he received AKC recognition in 1929. Dubbed the king of toys, the min pin slowly accumulated admirers and is presently one of the more popular toy breeds in the United States.

Danna Jones, thank you for telling me about him. From death row, to a new home, thanks to our Village!Joyce DrakeI was adopted today!😂Min Pins & More Rescue, Inc.This little Blue Boy was in a very kind shelter in Sanford FL, Seminole county. MPMR Foster, Kathleen Prince was called about him as he seemed to have a neurological issue. Her wonderful vet, at no charge to us, performed various diagnostic tests including a CT scan. He was determined to have severe bilateral Hydrocephalus. The vets believe it was congenital, but at some point recently it became life threatening. After much discussion, with his medical team, it was decided it... would be kindest to help him pass. He was helped to the other Side by very kind people, surrounded with love, and will be privately cremated. His cremains will be kept in a sacred place with Kathleen. I

will be eternally grateful to Kathleen for all she has done, and continues to do! He was "adopted" before he passed by all of us who came to love him these last few days. He has a Name, a Family, and he is Loved. He was a stray, staggering on the streets...but now, he is an Angel, and he Soars. Paws Up, Blooper, Little Blue Boy! We will see you someday, and we will Rejoice. -- Becky Roeckers Posted by Min Pins & More Rescue, Inc. shared a link.Topeka, KS - Miniature Pinscher.
