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. You can learn more about these wonderful dogs on the internet or by getting a good book on Miniature Pinschers. We wish you many happy years with your beloved little friend. .

British Veterinary Association / Kennel Club Hip Dysplasia Scheme
British Veterinary Association / Kennel Club Hip Dysplasia Scheme Breed Specific Statistics – 1 January 2001 to 31 December 2016 Hip scores should be considered along with other criteria as part of a responsible breeding programme, and it is recommended that breeders choose breeding stock with hip scores around and ideally below the breed median score, depending on the level of HD in the breed. HD status of parents, siblings and progeny for Kennel Club registered dogs should also be considered, and these together with a three generation Health Test Pedigree may be downloaded via the Health Test Results Finder, available on the Kennel Club’s online health tool Mate Select (www.mateselect.org.uk). In addition, estimated breeding values (EBVs) are available for breeds in which a significant number of dogs have been graded, via the same link. For further advice on the interpretation and use of hip scores see www.bva.co.uk/chs The breed median score is the score of the ‘average’ dog in that breed (i.e. an equal number of dogs in that breed have better and worse scores).

Questions - a Learning Experience? (As Printed in AKC Gazette, May 95 Miniature Pinscher Breed Column, Courtesy Of: Sherry Bernard)
Questions - A Learning Experience? (as printed in AKC Gazette, May 95 Miniature Pinscher Breed Column, courtesy of: Sherry Bernard) Anyone who owns a Miniature Pinscher will testify to the fact that you can't walk your dog around the block without having people stop you to ask questions. If you and your dog venture out to a mall or flea market it is not uncommon to literally attract a crowd. Far and away the most frequently asked question appears to be "Is this a bred down Doberman?" Proud Min Pin owners are happy to respond with a resounding "No". Unfortunately, that is often the only response given. This is not because Min Pin owners are rude or unfriendly, but usually because they don't know the history of their breed. It is not necessary to recite an entire chapter of a book to provide people with some basic information on where the Min Pin came from. It would be sufficient to let people know that the Miniature Pinscher is of German origin and is believed to be a cross between the Italian Greyhound and the Dachshund. You might add that the recognition of the Miniature Pinscher occurred a number of years earlier than the recognition of the Doberman Pinscher. Of greater interest is the fact that in Germany the Miniature Pinscher was known as the "Reh Pinscher" due to its resemblance to a small red deer, the Reh, which was found in German forests many years ago. One of the most fascinating personal observations I've made is that innumerable small children will ask me if the little red dog I'm walking is a deer! This is a fairly common occurrence with children, yet I've never had an adult ask that question.

More Than "Just A Pretty Face" as printed in AKC Gazette, Jun 98 Miniature Pinscher Breed Column, courtesy of: Faith Gordon). Westminster: What an exciting show for exhibitors and spectators! I had a party at my house to celebrate the occasion, and we all cheered at the TV as the Toy Group came in the ring. I was squirming in my seat to see who had won Best of Breed in Min Pins. I had my official list of the top-10 Min Pins in my hand and . .. wait! The Min Pin in the group, a red bitch handled by Kim Pastella, was not listed in the top 10. Where did she come from? Ch. Sunsprite Absolutely Sable, also known as Abbey, is making a return to the show ring after a year at home. Here is her story: Abbey came as a puppy from Marcia Tucker (of Sunsprite) to Pastella. Pastella, who usually has a Boxer at the end of her lead, hails from three generations of dog handlers and is no stranger to the group ring at Westminster, having twice handled a Boxer to win the Working Group there. Pastella's grandfather, Chic Ceccarini, won the group in1986 with a Boxer. Her mother, Loretta Ceccarini Parolisi, also shows Boxers. A few days after her Westminster win, I spoke to Pastella when our paths crossed at Rich Stadium in Buffalo, N.Y., home of the Buffalo Bills. (Football has not "gone to the dogs," but the stadium has opened its doors to dog shows.) I asked her, "How does it feel to win at the Garden, and where did this bitch come from, as she was not in the current top 10? " Pastella said that Abbey had finished her championship at a young age.
