Dear Reader,


Text Box: Baron Coburn, playing with “Hamburger.” Thank you for choosing my book! Your selection tells me that, like myself, you are a Miniature Pinscher lover interested in learning as much as possible about this fascinating breed.

In my years of having a Miniature Pinscher as a family pet, I have learned invaluable secrets and techniques that make life with a Min Pin so much more rewarding. Whether you plan living out your years with your Miniature Pinscher, showing or breeding, I have tips and ideas for you that will help you enjoy every second that much more!

My own Min Pin, Baron, inspired me to create this all inclusive handbook because he has given so much to our family. I’m sharing this knowledge with you so that you too can learn to enjoy every aspect of this breed as much as we do.

Please realize I’m providing you this information as a resource. It is not meant as a substitute for veterinary care, advice or treatment. If you’re concerned about your dog’s health, always check with your vet first.

Sincerely,

Taylor

Obedience Training & Your Miniature Pinscher

This should be the first step in any training program. Before training your dog for shows, you must have your communication and obedience training in order. Getting this down first makes other forms of training easier and more successful.

READ THIS Before Breeding Miniature Pinschers

Improve the Miniature Pinscher Breed

If you’re considering breeding Miniature Pinschers, your primary reason should be to improve the breed.

The Miniature Pinscher Club of America (MPCA) highlights the importance of this primary motivator by making it the club’s top objective:

“To encourage and promote quality in the responsible breeding

of pure-bred Miniature Pinschers and to do all possible to bring

their natural qualities to perfection.”

You need at least a basic understanding of something before you can improve on it. The same is true with breeding Miniature Pinschers.

If you want to breed your dog, gain a thorough knowledge of the breed, and of the approved breed standard. When you’re intimately familiar with the breed, research and study the ancestry of your bitch and prospective stud dog. This includes knowing the dogs’ temperament and health histories.

Don’t be like many breeders who have bred dogs with poor temperament and unknown health histories. Spare any future dogs from joining the countless number of abandoned and homeless dogs—including Miniature Pinschers.

Important: DO NOT EVEN THINK ABOUT BREEDING YOUR RESCUE DOG!!! You will only be producing more Min Pins in need of eventual rescue. You cannot possibly know the dog’s history or ancestry.

For those of us who do breed, follow the objectives set out by the MPCA Constitution and By-Laws (from: http://www.minpin.org/breeder.htm):

Miniature Pinscher Rescue Puppies

Rescuing a puppy can be a heartwarming experience. After all, where would the puppy be without you? But it’s important to understand that abandoned, abused or ill puppies will need special care, intensive training and attention.


If you are interested in adopting a rescued dog, check out the Miniature Pinscher Service. This non-profit organization has locations across the U.S. and specializes in the transport, foster care and adoption of rescued Min Pins. Their dogs have been spayed or neutered, inspected by a veterinarian and evaluated for training needs.

Your decision to adopt a rescued Miniature Pinscher must be based on a healthy financial situation, plenty of time to spend with your new pet and a desire to work hard to help correct any physical, social and behavioral problems they may be left with.
