Arrival Story: On July 1st, 2007 my boyfriend and I moved into our first apartment together. Only July 7th, 2007, after begging and pleading to have my own dog, we finally made the journey to the pound. We walked up and down the isles of many cute, wriggly puppies and sad faces of older dogs, but none of them seemed 'just right'. Right before we were leaving I saw this pathedic, mangy, huge eared, dirty little dog. He was listed as a 2 year old Min Pin. At that moment in time I knew that this was MY dog. We talked to the lady at the reception counter, and she said that he was dropped off just an hour or so before we came. The owners left no name or any background history of the dog. After filling out paperwork, paying $60.00, and waiting 2 days for him to be neutered, I finally got to pick up my very first dog. He was fear-aggressive, peed when men approached him, had bad allergies and no housemaners. A year later, lots of training and learning about nutrition from Dogster I have a happy, healthy dog of my own. :)
Bio: Miniature Pinschers are fun, cute, brave, fearless dogs all packed into a pint size. If you are interested in adding a Min Pin to your family, please be a responsible pet parent and do your research before you add "The King of Toys" to your family!Miniature Pinschers were first bred to hunt small vermin. Min Pins are devoted to their owners and can become aloof to strangers without proper socialization. They are a very active breed, and should get ATLEAST a minimum of an hour of exercise a day. Since this is a terrier, daily walks will not be suffiecent source of exercise. Min Pins are gluttons, so pay careful attention to their food intake. A morbidly obese dog is NOT cute or funny, and you will be causing your dog more stress and health problems as it ages. Keep in mind that this dog does not truly see itself as small and will challange larger dogs. With proper training and socialization the Miniature Pinscher can become quite a joy to your family. :)

So Mommy and Daddy decided to 'downsize' their 2 bedroom apartment into a 1 bedroom apartment in the same complex we live in. Mommy has been frantically cleaning and putting ALL MY STUFF into BOXES! and yelling at Daddy to stop screwing around and clean. She keeps saying we only have til Monday, we only have til Monday!!!!. Humans are odd.
But seriously, I really want to chew on all my bullysticks and rawhide chips that she JUST packed away. WTD!?!?!
Mom says that the place we are moving is going to be on the 1st floor isntead of the 2nd, so my 'view' on the patio won't be so magnificent. That's not fair. Why didn't the pawrents ask for MY opinion before moving!? GRrrr.
Atleast she says there is a lot of windows for basking. Ahh, I love lying in the sun.
Wow I haven't wrote in my diary in forever! Sorry guys!
Well I started Petsmart Beginners Obedience back in January. Man let me tell you, I have had a BLAST! I really do like learning! And my trainer, Rachel, is the BEST!
So far I know how to...
"Watch Me"
"Touch"
"Sit"
"Down" (lie down)
"Come"
That's a lot for me! I am still having trouble with Sit/Stay and Down/Stay, because I just don't wanna leave Mom! But we are working on that.
Since Mommy got a job at Petsmart, we get a FREE dog training course! I am so excited! Mommy and I are going to try to perfect the commands I know, and work on Stay, and then move on to Intermediate Obedience. How fun!
Well, just wanted to let everyone know what's happening with me! Hope everyone is having a splendid March! :)
