Medium sized, elegant, and square in build, the German Pinscher is an excellent watchdog and companion. Bigger than the Miniature Pinscher but smaller than the Doberman, the agility, alertness, intelligence, and stamina of the German Pinscher make it suitable for conformation, obe- dience, tracking, agility competitions and more. Their short coats are solid-colored red or fawn, and black or blue with tan to rust markings. A working dog, they possess a natural instinct to hunt vermin and protect home and family. This creates a dog with strong prey drive and a strong will. However they are willing learners and they make wonderful multipurpose companions with firm, but gentle and consistent discipline.
