There’s a lot of misinformation floating around about the Miniature Pinscher. Some say this dog breed is annoying, and barks to much. Others will tell you the Min Pin is not good with children. Chances are that these are the same folks saying that Min Pins are simply small Dobermans. Of course owners of this breed know that all of those things are simply wrong.

The fact is that the Miniature Pinscher is nicknamed the King of the Toys for a very good reason. You’ll have a hard time finding a more fun loving, yet loyal dog anywhere.

When you’re getting a Miniature Pinscher you’re definitely getting a dog with an attitude. He’s been called a big dog in a small dog’s body. Min Pins only weigh about 10 pounds, but act like they are much bigger. And they are full of pride, which you can witness by the way they step high and hold their head high when they walk. This is a proud breed.

Combine the pride with the Miniature Pinscher’s fierce loyalty to his owner and his tremendous courage, and you have a great watchdog. But in all fairness, they can also be a handful.

Min Pins can become almost tyrannical, running your house for you. If you own this breed you simply need to establish early on that you are the one in charge. Some Min Pin owners may have trouble disciplining their pet simply because he’s so cute. Don’t make this mistake. You’ll find that because this breed is so intelligent that training is fairly easy.

Take the time to train him properly and your Min Pin will be an fantastic pet. They are loving and exceedingly loyal, but they are also a blast to watch play. If you love to laugh (and who doesn’t?), then the Miniature Pinscher is a great breed for you.

Just make sure that if you have children, they don’t play too rough. Yes the Min Pin is sturdy and incredibly playful, but he does only weigh 10 pounds. It’s easy to forget how small he is when playing.

And there are very few breeds that would be considered more loyal than a Miniature Pinscher. He will quickly become attached to everyone in your family, although he does have a tendency to become very attached to one person in particular.

And Min Pins aren’t just playful as puppies, they remain that way through their old age. Sure they are a bundle of energy and need exercise, but because of their size they can get plenty of it just running around your home or apartment. And don’t think you need to keep up with them. They’ll have a blast playing by themselves with you watching.

And if you want a lap dog when play time is finished, they’re happy to play that role as well. And any dog that’s loyal, fun, loving and easy to care for sounds like the perfect family pet.
