The Miniature Pinscher originated in Germany several centuries ago..where the red Miniature Pinscher was known as "Reh Pinscher" because of its resemblance to a small red deer found in German forests years ago.

What small dog has the intelligence.. pride.. spirit and ferocity of a much larger dog but still has the charm and playfulness of a puppy? If you have ever met a Miniature Pinscher.. I"m sure you know the answer.

The Miniature Pinscher is not a scaled down version of a Doberman,in fact the Miniature Pinscher is the older of the two breeds.

Known as King of the Toys, the Miniature Pinscher at first glance.. looks like a tiny Doberman.
They are sometimes called Teacup Dobermans, prolonging the myth that the Min Pin was bred down from the Doberman.The two breeds are unrelated...although they do share a guard dog instinct.

Even so...the similarity in appearance is striking, making the black and tan color of the Miniature Pinscher an especially popular choice for pet owners who enjoy having a Doberman look a like..that fits into a small home with limited yard space.The Min Pin can also be surprisingly fearless towards large dogs, with an attitude that exaggerates the dog's small size.
No breed of dog can compete with the Min Pin when
it comes to strutting, prancing, and standing at attention.
The Min Pin is a very clean breed, with very little doggy oder.They hardly require bathing,  Their small size and short coat make shedding a minimal problem.
They do not like the cold weather and cannot be expected to live outdoors. They love to curl up under a blanket to sleep.
Min Pins are excellent watchdogs, and although they will try to be a  protection dog, their size makes them more intimidating than effictive.
