So you have decided you want to get a new dog but you do not want a big, mean, aggressive guard dog. You do not want a canine that requires unlimited time in the exercise yard. You don’t even want a new buddy that looks like a dog. “Cuteness” is the number one criteria you are using. Well do I have a dog for you…the Affenpinscher…better known to most people as “The Monkey Dog.” These little bundles of fur are too cute for their own good.

The Miniature Schnauzer

by Sidy Boy

The Miniature Schnauzer is derived from the Standard Schnauzer and is said to have come from mixing Affenpinchers and Poodles with small Standards. The Mini’s were exhibited as a distinct breed as early as 1899, and were recognized by the American Kennel Club in 1926.

Miniature Schnauzers should be no less than 12 inches in height, and no more than 14 inches. They are sturdily built, nearly square in proportion of body length to height with plenty of bone. The weight should range between 14 to 18 pounds depending on height.

Affenpinscher - The Monkey Dog

By Tim Shank

The Affenpinscher is a small 7 to 8 pound dog that usually does not exceed around 10 inches in height. The Affenpinscher has bushy eyebrows and shaggy hair and most often is considered to look somewhat like a monkey. Although this certainly is a dog, you might consider that sometimes it is a monkey by the way that it acts.

Affenpinschers look like terriers but they’re actually part of the pinscher-schnauzer subgroup. The common color of an Affenpinscher is black, although the AKC will allow them to be other colors such as gray, silver, and a combination of black and tan but Black is always preferred.
