Often referred to as “the King of the Toys” by those in the know, these diminutive but dynamic dogs were originally employed on German farms as pest control. While they are small in size, Miniature Pinschers are not lapdogs but athletic, driven canines who respond best to a firm but loving approach. Miniature Pinschers are delightfully entertaining companions, but the novice owner may need some extra guidance when raising this bold breed. They require regular training sessions and daily exercise or they can quickly become unruly, demanding, and manipulative. Learn everything that you need to know to raise your dog from a lively Pinscher pup to a curious and confident adult with a dignified air. These little dogs make animated and entertaining companions that will keep you on the move. Miniature Pinscher parents will find themselves reaching for this handy manual over and over again. The valuable information contained in this guide is designed to help you navigate pet ownership, from selecting the right canine companion for your home to caring for your dog throughout his senior years. This thorough volume is a must-have manual for anyone who adores the Miniature Pinscher breed.

“Based on the latest findings in the field of canine cognition and behavior, this book is an invaluable resource.” —Hal Herzog, author of Some We Love, Some We Hate, Some We Eat: Why It's So Hard To Think Straight About Animals Every dog owner knows that along with the joy can come the stress and frustration of behavioral problems, which are expensive to diagnose and treat. Enter Kim Brophey, award-winning canine behavior consultant. Using cutting-edge research, Brophey has developed a groundbreaking system that allows owners to identify what their dog is struggling with, why, and how they can fix it. Brophey’s approach is unlike anything that has been published before and will give dog owners a new understanding of what motivates and affects their dog’s behavior. This innovative technique rethinks the way we categorize dogs, and distills information from over twenty scientific disciplines into four comprehensive elements: learning, environment, genetics, and self. With revolutionary tips for specific dog breeds, this book will change dog owners’ lives—and lead to happier human-canine relationships. “It’s refreshing to finally find a book that takes into consideration the many predispositions to behavior problems in dogs . . . teaches us to really see the dog in its entirety.” —Alexandre Rossi, author of A Dog at the Keyboard
