Miniature Pinscher Breed Information:
Contrary to popular belief, the Miniature Pinscher is not at all related to the Doberman Pinscher. In fact, the Min Pin is a much older breed than the Doberman Pinscher. Although very similar in appearance, the two breeds share no ancestors in common. Recorded facts from the year 1875 state that the Miniature Pinscher was developed by crossing a smooth coated Dachshund with an Italian Greyhound. The Dachshund was a German favorite with excellent ratting skills, and the Italian Greyhound was also a ratter used on farms where open fields required a faster dog to chase down rats and mice. The original Miniature Pinscher was a working breed left to the barn with minimal human contact, much like feral cats on farms today. This created the unique independent trait in the breed that is still found today. The Miniature Pinscher is hearty, playful, and proud. They are very energetic and thrive on owner interaction. They are spirited, demanding, and very loyal to their master. Min Pins are outgoing, responsive and clever. They are highly intelligent and capable of learning very quickly. They are very protective of their owners, and are sometimes leery of strangers. This protective instinct will manifest as barking and challenging postures. Originally bred for ratting, the Min Pin will bark at anything they deem a threat. They should be socialized at an early age to avoid excessive aggressiveness, especially towards other dogs of the same sex.
