Versorging
Temperament
Confident, curious and playful, with a touch of stubbornness. Loyal to its people and quick to alert, though it can be bossy with larger dogs.
Oefening
Short daily walks and indoor play are enough; it enjoys games, trick training and short sniffing walks.
Versorging
The rough coat needs combing a few times a week and occasional tidying or hand-stripping around the face and feet; it sheds little.
Opleiding
Bright but independent; keep training short, fun and consistent, with patience for house-training.
Gesondheid
Known concerns include kneecap luxation, Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease, eye problems and some heart conditions; the short face can also make it sensitive to heat. Ask the breeder for the parents' knee and eye results.
Gesondheidstoetse wat telers gewoonlik doen
- Knieskywe (patella)
- Oogondersoek

Oor die ras
The Affenpinscher is an old German breed whose name means "monkey terrier", a nod to its expressive, whiskered face. It was once used to keep rats and mice out of stables, kitchens and shops, and it is thought to have contributed to the development of the Brussels Griffon and Miniature Schnauzer.
Today it is a lively companion that likes to be the centre of attention. It is brave for its size and alert to everything happening around it. It suits adults or families with older children who handle it gently.
