The Miniature Pincher had been one of he most popular toy breeds in the world for a long time; it is small, elegant and very lively.

This lively, alert and vigilant dog likes to bark, is intelligent, sober, somewhat over courageous, dependent, loyal and learns quickly. One can be dumbfounded by the speed with which the little Pincher understands and obeys!

The Miniature Pincher can get along well with other household pets and children, provided they do not pester it. They can be rather suspicious towards strangers, but their behaviour will depend entirely upon how they were brought up as young dogs.
