Seidler. Official language (DE). COUNTRY OF ORIGIN: Germany. DATE OF PUBLICATION OF THE OFFICIAL VALID STANDARD: 06.03.07. UTILISATION: House and Companion Dog FCI-CLASSIFICATION: Group 2 Pinscher and Schnauzer- Molossoid breeds - Swiss Mountain and Cattle Dogs. Section 1 Pinscher and Schnauzer type. Without working trial. BRIEF HISTORICAL SUMMARY: Around the turn of the century a dwarf Schnauzer from the Frankfurt/Main area went on his way, then still described as a rough haired Zwergpinscher (Miniature Pinscher). Due to the different shapes, sizes and types and the muddle of harsh, soft and silky coat textures, it was no easy task to evolve a small dog with the appearance and the characteristic qualities of his bigger brother, the Schnauzer. GENERAL APPEARANCE: Small, strong, stocky rather than slim, rough coated, elegant. A reduced image of the Schnauzer without the drawback of a dwarfed appearance. IMPORTANT PROPORTIONS: • Square build in which the height at the withers is nearly equal to the body length. • The length of the head (measured from the tip of the nose to the occiput) corresponds to half the length of the topline (measured from the withers to the set on of the tail). FCI-St. N° 183 / 18.04.2007 3 BEHAVIOUR/TEMPERAMENT: His nature is similar to that of the Schnauzer and is determined by the temperament and the behaviour of a small dog. Intelligence, fearlessness, endurance, and alertness make the Miniature Schnauzer an agreeable house dog as well as a watch and companion dog which can be kept even in a small apartment without problems. -

The Miniature Pinscher Unique Origin
THE MINIATURE PINSCHER UNIQUE ORIGIN: The Miniature Pinscher, in spite of its looks, is not a miniature version of the Doberman Pinscher; however, it is believed that both breeds originated from the German Pinscher in Germany. “Min Pins,” as they are affectionately called, probably derived more from the Italian Greyhound and the Dachshund breeds. They are thought to be an old breed and used primarily as a very efficient home and barn ratter. PERSONALITY: The Min Pin is a spirited, fearless, and curious little dog. Their antics range from laughable to amazing. Min Pins are brave and fearless and make great escape artists as they can dig under or climb over fences. They are fun-loving, entertaining, and always full of energy. They can be affectionate, loyal and loving. Min Pins make a great little watchdog, as they will bark and alert you should anyone come to your door. They do well with respectful children, but you must train both of them how to properly play with each other to avoid any unintentional injuries. If unduly spoiled, the Min Pin can become headstrong. APPEARANCE: The Miniature Pinscher usually weighs between 8 to 10 pounds and stands approximately 10 to 12 inches tall. They have a compact, well proportioned body and are small and dainty in build. Its coat is short, straight, smooth and glossy. Colors can range from red, black & rust to chocolate and tan. INTERESTING FACTS: Miniature Pinschers are the 17th most popular dog registered with America's Pet Registry Inc. They are commonly called “The King of Toys.” These are just a few interesting facts. -
Is a Giant Schnauzer the Right Dog for You? by Daphne Cooke
Is a Giant Schnauzer the Right Dog for You? by Daphne Cooke Reprinted from What You Should Know About The Giant Schnauzer, 5th Edition ©1988 FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ARE GIANT SCHNAUZERS GOOD WITH CHILDREN? This question should be reversed. Are your children good with dogs? No dog, Giant Schnauzer or otherwise, should be expected to put up with abusive treatment or teasing from children who have not been taught to treat animals with kindness. Even very young children can and must be taught respect for the family dog, or you can expect problems. All too often parents purchase a dog for the kids. They envision the kids taking care of the new puppy and everyone playing together happily. Puppies should never be bought for the children. At least one adult must accept the ultimate responsibility for the dog. One who really wants it and understands the care, training and love that the dog will need. Even a responsible teenager who asks for a dog should be reminded that teenagers usually leave home and leave their pets behind. Who will take care of the Giant Schnauzer then? ARE GIANT SCHNAUZERS ROAMERS? Any dog who is not on a leash or in a fenced yard is a potential roamer, and possible troublemaker. Giant Schnauzers should be fenced at home or reliably trained for voice control, and you should be on the end of the leash when not at home. It is your responsibility to keep the dog safe from unfamiliar dangers (cars, trucks, garbage, irate neighbors) and to clean up after it. -

The Miniature Schnauzer Origin
THE MINIATURE SCHNAUZER ORIGIN: Miniature Schnauzers were originally developed in the 19th century in Germany where they were used to guard livestock and chase vermin. Their name is derived from the word “Schnauze” which means “muzzle.” They were developed by cross breeding small Standard Schnauzers with the Affenpinscher or Poodle. They still make a good watchdog today, but their primary function is that of a household pet. PERSONALITY: This little dog is very intelligent and easy to train. They are active, alert, spirited, friendly, and loyal. Since they were bred to chase vermin, they can be aggressive towards small animals. They are extremely protective and want to please their family. As with any dog, you must teach young children how to properly play with them to avoid any unintentional injuries. APPEARANCE: Miniature Schnauzers usually weigh between 10 to 18 pounds, and their height averages between 11 and 14 inches tall. They have a square-shaped body that is surprisingly muscular for such a small dog. Their ears may be cropped to stand erect or left long to fold over. Eyebrows on a Miniature Schnauzer are distinctive and arched, and their whiskers are long and the fur grows into a “beard” on both sexes. Traditional colors of Miniature Schnauzers are black, black & white or salt and pepper with their coat being wiry. INTERESTING FACTS: Miniature Schnauzers are the 6th most popular dog registered with America's Pet Registry Inc. As this little dog doesn’t shed much, they are considered hypoallergenic. According to Stanley Coren in his book The Intelligence of Dogs, the Miniature Schnauzer rates under “Excellent Working Dogs” as number 12 with understanding 5 to 15 repetitions of new commands and obeys the first command 85 percent of the time or better. -
