About The Breed
ADVERTISEMENT
The Miniature Pinscher, also known as the Minpin by fanciers, is a toy breed of dog. Minpins were first bred to hunt vermin, especially rats. In its native Germany, the dog is known as the Zwergpinscher. Pinscher, refers to a classification of dogs bred as guardians or to hunt vermin. Zwerg, in German, means Dwarf or Midget. The Mini Pinscher is also known as the "King of the Toy Dogs".
The coat colors, according to most breed standards, are red, stag-red, fawn, and black or chocolate with tan markings. The coat should be short and smooth. The miniature pinscher frequently has a docked tail and cropped ears, although this is becoming a somewhat controversial practice.
