German Pinscher |

Description
History
As the name would suggest the German Pinscer is believed to have been bred in Germany and have descended from early European herding and guardian breeds.
The breed nearly became extinct after the World Wars. Credit is attributed to Werner Jung for collecting several of the breed after the war to continue the line.
Temperment
Similar to the MinPin the German Pinscher is of extremely high intelligence and strong willed. They are generally very friendly and playful when properly socialized but care must be used around young children.
