The Miniature Pinscher is a German breed. The Miniature Pinscher was developed from the Dachshund, Italian Greyhound, and the short haired German Pinscher. The breed looks like a mini Doberman, most likely because both the Miniature Pinscher and the the Doberman both were developed from the German Pinscher. The breed was used as a barnyard ratter controlling the rodent population in the stables. The Miniature Pinscher is often called the "King Of The Toys."Some of the Miniature Pinscher's talents are competitive obedience, watchdog, and agility.

Miniature bred to over 15hh = Foal mature 14hh-15.3hh Miniature bred to Galloway (13.2hh - 14.3hh) = Foal mature 13hh and under OR 14.3hh Miniature bred to 13hh and under = Obviously, foal will mature 13hh or under Sometimes, though, the results will be different, depending on the genes of the horses bred, and the size. It would be extremely hard on a miniature mare to a carry a foal sired by a full sized stallion so it would have to be a miniature stallion with a full sized mare. Shetland ponies vary in size so it would really depend.
