The Dog/Cat Adoption Zone

[wolfy999]

Looks like our neighbor desserted their dog.....so guess where he is now? Yep, the Wolfpack has now adopted a Miniature Pinscher. Wolfette has never been happier and it looks like Buddy (dog) is happy also!

NA, we'll be needing advice...are you familiar with the breed?

I am a little

suffice to say, same attitude as the larger version, concentrated into a smaller package.

Actually, a rescue network I am connected with sometimes get reptiles. I'll call you if something comes up.

YAY!!!! I have a couple MinPins I walk. They are a handful!!!! But, I really like the breed. You have to be careful about their spindly legs and their eyes. They are also prone to Luxating Patella (as are all small dogs) which requires surgery. Thurston just had this surgery, so I know ll about it.

The MinPin is not a decendent of the Doberman Pincher but a Greyhound/Doxie cross. They WILL bolt so keep him on a leash. They are great little dogs if they are socialized properly. As with most small dogs, they have a bit of Napeleon complex. They live a pretty long time, so be prepared for a long term commitment.
