Did you know....
Yes...thats right...
they like to dig too!
But come on...what dog doesn't?
No breed of dog-absolutely no breed- 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 seldom require bathing, and only need a weekly brushing. 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 demand a soft bed and many human comforts.They love to curl up under a blanket to sleep.
Min Pins are excellent watchdogs, and although they will try to be a formidable protection dog, their size makes them more intimidating than effictive.
Pet stores can obtain any breed of dog...but they do this by obtaining puppies from large breeding operations, where puppies have very little opportunities for socialization and parents are usually of poor quality and often poor health. Please help stop puppy mills and buy your puppy from a reputable breeder!
You should never give your Min Pin cooked Chicken, Pork, Lamb or fish bones.These can be swallowed and their sharp ends can pierce the stomach or intestinal walls.This could cause choking or intestinal blockage.
You should never give Chocolate to your Min Pin (or any dog) Chocolate contains theobromine, which is poisonous to dogs.
Never let your Min Pin (or any dog) drink Alcohol. Small dogs can drink fatal amounts very quickly.
Never let your dog eat Onions, they are a real danger for dogs, and have been fatal in some cases.
Blue and Fawn color Min Pins tend to have hair and skin problems..and are not allowed to be shown.
Miniature Pinschers are not Miniature Doberman Pinschers. Despite their apperarance, they were not breed down from the larger breed. In fact, the Miniature Pinscher is the older of the two breeds.
You should Min Pin proof your home if you plan on getting a Min Pin..or if you already have one.....
