It isn't the entire breed of min pin that is mean, I've personally dealt with many that have very positive temperaments. Though min pins do exhibit what can be called "Defensive" attitudes. Unfortunately, many people don't fully understand how to quell bad habits in animals, and wind up almost "encouraging" the behavior by not completely addressing it, allowing it to become worse and worse, until it's reached an extreme. Temperaments of a dog truly depend on 1, [2 if it was rescued from a shelter]

1) The owner. How the dog is treated, how it's socialized with other dogs, and how well the owner is at training are all variables that go into a dog's attitude.

2) The dog's past. Abused and/or abandoned dogs often have a "chip" on their shoulder, regardless of how good the new owners are. I personally rescued a dog from a shelter, [Boxer/Rhodesian Ridgeback Mix] Who was abandoned and she, even to this day, can be very hesitant in certain situations.

So it all depends!

Min Pins go into heat twice a year. The heat will last between 2 and 4 weeks, 3 weeks being the average. Min Pins bleed very little, but covering the sofa and the beds with sheets is recommended, sofas can be hard to fit into the washing machine! Min Pins will mate with large dogs, and this can be a problem, as the puppies can develop to be too large for her to birth. It is better to keep the female indoors, and protected from wandering, horny males. Her scent can be picked up 2 miles away! Lizzard
