This is an e-mail list dedicated to Miniature Pinschers and the
people who love them. MinPinTalk is a list geared towards education
in all areas of the breed. Spaying and neutering is a strong topic of
discussion with this group as an essential part of being a Responsible Pet Owner. MinPinTalk is a wonderful group comprised of Pet Owners,
Conformation Participants/Responsible Breeders, Obedience Enthusiasts and Agility Competitors, all of whom are excited to share accurate and factual information about the breed with you, and hear your stories and questions.

We FIRMLY believe that NO pet should be used in ANY breeding program.
If you're joining to brag about a litter of puppies, to get breeding
advice or to look for a stud for your pet, and your breeding practices
do little more than add to the pet market , then you are in the WRONG place. Breeding should be left only to those actively participating in AKC/UKC Competitions. Responsible Breeders/Show Participants are extremely welcome.

The members of MinPinTalk understand there are times in which a much loved
Pet must be re-homed. We are not a rescue group and placement of pets is not allowed publically on the list; however, we do have a network of dedicated members who will gladly assist you in your re-homing needs. We ask that you please give us the time needed to seek the proper help you need to insure that your pet goes to a pre-approved forever-home. If you need help locating a loving home for your Miniature Pinscher please send a private e-mail to minpintalk-owner@yahoogroups.com - do not post on the public list. We will work closely with nationwide rescue groups to help your pet on his/her journey to a loving home.

With that said... if you would like to share your MinPin stories, give and receive
advice, enjoy conversations with people who share
your interest in the breed, make wonderful friends and have fun, then
this list is for you.
