Both! I have a 9-year-old min pin... he's a couch potato while indoors and an explorer while outside. Min Pins are very curious, social dogs. They will be your neighborhood watch, if given access to a window; they will be the escape artist you never knew existed, they love to be chased and mine thinks that running away is a great game. They are great cuddle-rs too! Since min pins are naturally lean with short hair, its important to keep them in a relatively mild climate. If you have a well-fenced yard, most min pins can be left alone to explorer the yard all day. I don't recommend leaving a min pin inside the house by themselves too long, the will get into everything within reach!! Mine went through the dirty clothes basket and ate up everyone's underwear and socks :(
All in all, i wouldn't trade my min pin for anything in the world.
(another answer) So true, but I wouldn't leave him outdoors in the winter. Their short hair and small body size mean they could not stay warm enough.
Being miniature Dobermans, which are very active and athletic dogs, they can be extremely playful.
The Dobermann Pinscher is categorised in the Working Group.
All domesticated dogs are known by the same scientific name: Canis lupus familiaris.
if they have front OR back dewclaws they have 18 claws if they have front AND back dew claws they have 20 and if they have no dew claws then 16 claws.same goes for large dogs
Not necassarly, since they do shed and have dander they can affect allergy sufferers
The breed standard says male Miniature Pinschers should stand 10-12 inches at the shoulder, and females stand at 10-11 inches. Male Miniature Pinschers should weigh 8-10 pounds, and females 8-9 pounds. Of course, there are plenty of non-standard dogs out there, so these sizes and weights can vary.
indoor cats yes, outdoor cats **** no.
Toy Breed Dogs. Small breed dogs such as toy poodles, Yorkshire terriers and Chihuahuas typically weigh less than 10... Miniature and Small Breed Dogs. Miniature poodles, miniature pinschers and other small breed dogs like Scottish terriers... Medium Breed Dogs. Medium breed dogs are those breeds which weigh an average of 25 pounds
Well I have one and the last owner she had as a baby said that they think there bigger than others. I think that they know they're small but try to be brave of bigger dogs.
They are considered very smart dogs. They can learn very quickly. They are very trainable because of their intelligence, however they are very strong willed and sometimes simply resist doing what they are told.
Pugs are a domesticated breed of dogs and, as a much loved pet, mainly live indoors.

Min Pin puppies are also known as miniature pinschers. Unlike most dogs their head are directly proportional to their body. They have dark oval shaped eyes and have ears that perk to the left. Usually people want their tails to be cropped but that's illegal.They're dogs that cope well with other dogs!
Purebred Boxers and Doberman Pinschers are short haired dogs. If these breeds are anything but short haired, they are mixed with another breed.
All three Schnauzer breeds (Miniature, Standard and Giant) are related to the German Pinscher. The German Pinscher is the ancestor of the Miniature Pinscher and both the Miniature Schnauzer and the Standard Schnauzer are essentially wire-hair versions of the Miniature and German Pinschers. The Doberman came after all the other Pinschers and Schnauzers and while some German Pinscher blood was used to create the breed so were many other breeds such as the Weimaraner, Rottweiler, possibly the Great Dane (which is a German breed) and possibly the Greyhound and other breeds and mutts as well. The Giant Schnauzer was created by crossing Standard Schnauzers, German Poodles, Bouvier des Flanders, Great Danes and various rough coated sheep dogs and drover dogs. The German Pinscher and the Standard Schnauzer are the oldest, with artwork as late as the 1400's depicting German dogs that had similar looks to these 2 breeds. Both the German Pinscher and Standard Schnauzer, along with the Miniature Pinscher and Miniature Schnauzer became official breeds in the late 1800's. In developing the Standard Schnauzer (and subsequintly the Miniature Schnauzer) from the German Pincher the German Poodle was probably used too.
There are many breeds of small dofs, from chihuahuas and poodles to rat terriers. In addition, dog breeds that have small adjectives in their title (like toy poodles or miniature pinschers) are smaller than their regular-sized counterparts.
