The
Miniature Pinscher, or Min Pin as it is sometimes called, is a compact, sturdy, muscular, sleek dog belonging to the Toy Group.
It has a
smooth,
hard straight coat that closely follows the body and covers it from head to toe. The coat is usually red in color, but can also be found in black and tan or chocolate. The small rust-colored markings are well-defined. The eyes are dark, sometimes even black, and are slightly oval in shape. The ears are triangular and erect, and are usually docked. The tail is always docked, and set high on the back.
The Miniature Pinscher has a
strong muzzle,
black nose, and a
scissors bite. Its
small feet are catlike in appearance. Although small and compact, the Miniature Pinscher is a sturdy dog with a
well-developed chest,
muscular thighs, and a
unique high-stepping gait.
The Miniature Pinscher is
intelligent,
stubborn,
proud,
courageous and
extremely energetic.
(just like her owner!)
The dog is
attentive,
alert, and
loyal to its owner.
Quick to learn and
always curious, the Min Pin can
pick up obedience and
new tricks rather easily; actually getting the obstinate little guys to listen to you may be another story, however. Though generally
aggressive and
possessive with other dogs, the Miniature Pinscher can get along with children and other pets, provided it is brought up with them from a young age. The instinct to chase small animals is strong in the Min Pin.
The Miniature Pinscher can be
suspicious of strangers at first, and makes a good watchdog, especially since it likes to bark. The Miniature Pinscher is not your typical docile lapdog, but it
can be very sweet, although care should be taken not to excessively spoil it. This dog likes to
chew on toys and
small objects, and needs to be watched carefully to ensure that choking does not occur. Because the Miniature Pinscher has short hair, grooming needs are minimal. Since constant bathing tends to dry out the skin, a simple wipe down with a damp cloth will suffice. Use a firm brush or comb for grooming. The dog is ideal for apartment living since it is capable of being active inside.
The Miniature Pinscher does
enjoy being walked, however, and relishes the opportunity to run and play in an outside environment. During winter it should be kept warm, and some owners choose to put a sweater on it; the Min Pin hates the cold. The teeth and nails should be cared for regularly.
The Miniature Pinscher needs socialization and training starting at a young age, since its fearless nature can often lead to fights with much larger dogs.
