Hi, this is Fern! I have had Miniature Pinscher puppies for 14 years! Mt sister and her husband got me started in raising Miniature Pinscher puppies when my husband passed away from cancer, as I had to do something for income to support me and my children. We immediately fell in love with these little dogs. They are very intelligent and awesome watch dogs. Nobody hits my driveway without them letting me know. They are a long-maintenance dog and eat very little. I raised the Mothers of my puppies and also have my own male. They have been a real blessing to me and my family! Feel free to call with any questions you may have!
