A high level of intelligence, an affectionate nature and the renowned clownish personality are the admirable qualities of an Affenpinscher. The Affenpinscher is certainly the correct choice for a dog owner wanting a pet that has the ability to amuse the family with its comic antics. The dog is a showoff and would take every opportunity to catch anyone’s attention. For that reason, the dog has left its modest corner in barns and stables to be the pampered and highly valued pets that are provided comfortable accommodations including the laps of its adoring owners. An Affenpinscher though has a cunning side. The sly dog has what it takes to wrap the owners around its little fingers. The dog is so small but it knows how to use it wiles to make the whole family give in to its demands. This dog makes a loving and devoted pet but owners have to be aware of this little dog’s tough personality. Never give in to the desire to spoil this dog if you don’t want to have a bully in your hands. The dog has this unwanted behavior of showing a bad temper if its wishes are not granted by its master. The dog is small but it will attack if teased by strangers. Loving care but consistent firm training would have positive results and turn this mustached little devil into spunky but lovable toy-like pet that will consistently bring joy to the family.

The Affenpinscher is listed as one of the toy breeds. The size makes this dog an ideal choice for an apartment dweller.
