Are you up to the challenge of a Min Pin?

 

According to the American Kennel Club standard for the Miniature Pinscher, this little guy is "structurally a well balanced, sturdy, compact, short-coupled, smooth-coated dog. He naturally is well groomed, proud, vigorous and alert. Characteristic traits are his hackney-like action, fearless animation, complete self-possession, and his spirited presence."

Spiked Leather Harness 

Your little dog can be as tough as he or she wants in the Spiked Leather Harness by Top Dog while still being the most stylish dog on the block! Spike (below right) is ready for anything in the Black.
Available in Pink, Blue or Black, with adjustable buckle straps front and back. Spikes are in a "V" pattern on the chest piece and are also on the back straps.

Challenge that clever little mind! 

The TreatStik is a great way to put the interest back in your pup's mealtimes! Some little dogs need to be persuaded to eat, but many times that's because they're just bored. The TreatStik makes meals a fun game. When you put your dog's kibble in the TreatStik, roll it around on the floor so that a few pieces fall out of the small hole (3/4" long, 1/2" wide), she'll see how much fun it is to play! She'll get the hang of the TreatStik in no time and be eager for the game!

Alternatively, it's a great toy! Just put a few pieces of kibble or a couple of treats in the TreatStik and your lazy dog will be chasing it all over the place once he figures out there's good stuff to be had!

Comfy and tough in a tattoo tee! 

Tattoo Design T-shirts will make your Min Pin the coolest and most comfortable on the block! Wearing a Tank Top or a Two-Toned Shirt with these fabulous Tattoo Designs by All Star Dogs, your small dog will be the most up-to-the-moment in fashion! The designs are embroidered onto the shirts.

Keep her busy! 

The Little Dog's Activity Book author Deborah Wood, author of Little Dogs: Training Your Pint-Sized Companion and The Little Dog's Beauty Book owns and shows Papillons in obedience trials. She also makes regular animal-assisted therapy visits with one of her dogs to a children's hospital. The Little Dog's Activity Book is loaded with dozens of games, tricks and fun things to do with your little dog. Step-by-step instructions for tricks, ideas for mind-challenging games, details on how to throw parties, plus tips for participating in organized sports with your little dog. Keeping your little dog active, both physically and mentally, can have positive effects on his health and behavior!

Perfectly clad in Plaid! 

Fully-adjustable, light and strong, these cute Step-in Harnesses by Daba Doo will stop all that fumbling, trying to fasten multiple clasps you can't even see! Once you have the harness adjusted for your little dog, all you have to do is open the harness flat on the floor, have the dog step over it with its front feet in the openings, grasp the two sides and close the easy parachute clasp over the dog's back!

And when they're bad, they're evil! 

Cuz Toys, sized for your little dog, and they're the best rubber toys to ever bounce! Hard rubber, with squeakers that are really hard to get to. These toys will bounce into your, and your dog's, heart. The Good Cuz and Bad Cuz are just 2 1/2 inches high (including feet!) and 1 7/8 inches in diameter. (If you're wondering, Bad Cuz have horns.)
All of the Cuz toys have great bits to chew on, bounce like crazy, and are just plain fun.

About Hope

I woke up one day and discovered that after decades of living with small dogs, training small dogs, competing with small dogs and co-owning a small dog boutique (Golly Gear), I was pretty much an expert on small dogs! And I blog all about it on the GollyLog.
