The diminutive Min Pin is a bundle of energy, full of vigor. He’s highly curious and tends to investigate — and possibly eat — everything. He must be watched closely so he doesn’t get into something he shouldn’t. He’s a skilled escape artist and should never be outside off-leash — in fact, you’ll have to make sure he doesn’t dart out whenever you answer the front door. “Min Pins rule” — that’s the attitude you’ll discover when you get acquainted with the Miniature Pinscher, a small, elegant dog with an arched neck and well-muscled body. Weighing in at a dainty 8 to 11 pounds, this toy breed is a tough little dog with a lot of attitude.
Buy him a doggie sweater he can wear during cold winter months. Make sure all small objects (keys, coins, kids’ toys, and so forth) stay out of his reach. Medication can be a serious issue, because the Min Pin will find and ingest any pills that you chance to drop on the floor; be sure to put those away after every use.
I am Kraig Wharton, a wildlife conservationist and a television personality. I am 30 years old. I was born and raised in the small town of Marion, Alabama. I have always had a love and respect for nature, which led me to pursue a career in wildlife conservation.
I have been very fortunate to have had the opportunity to travel all over the world, working with some of the most endangered species on the planet. My work has taken me to some of the most remote and dangerous places on earth, including war-torn countries such as Iraq and Afghanistan.
I am passionate about educating people about the importance of conserving our natural resources, and I am committed to doing whatever it takes to protect our planet for future generations.
