I don't know why, but I LOVE these little guys so much. I think about them all day when I'm at work. I snuggle with them both all night watching tv. They sleep right beside me in my bed, under the covers.

But, as you can see, they're "active." Do you know how hard it is snapping a picture of a couple of whirlwind blurs?

Whew.

Anyway, they're always dancing around and they managed to upset their bowl and dump their kibble all over the floor while I was trying to get a picture.

But, I didn't care. I just kept snapping until I finally got something to post.

Then I cleaned up the kibble. :lol:

Brutus Minimus is my chocolate colored male and Merry Min-Pin is my little black and tan girl.

I love dobermans, but after losing my dobie, St. Mathew, to cardiomyopathy, I decided to get a scaled down version that has fewer health issues and a little more "portable."

(Minature Pincers are in no way related to dobies, they just look them.)

This is at mom and dad's house. They are NOT allowed outside the kitchen because, ahem, Suzie, the nasty cat I've posted pictures of here, doesn't care for them and they chase her relentlessly around the house.

They are cute. I can see why you love them!

I think their cuteness is why they're so popular. But, make no mistake, they're a very active dog. Not good for retired folks that want lap dogs.

They're noisy and rambunctious and into EVERYTHING. They are good at staying out from under your feet. I'll give them that. They're not graceful either. They just run and leap all over the place.

Merry leaps over Brutus long wise. She'll snatch a toy and dare him to chase her and take it from her. It's cute. If he ignores her, she comes running into his face and taunts him with the toy in her mouth, and when he tries to snatch it from her, she turns tail and runs and he gives chase.

And he likes to tug. Tug-o-war is his game of choice. And their little growls are hilarious.

They're as much fun to watch as they are to smooch on. I'm always laughing to tears.

They are adorable! Like you, I love my Dobermans! I've thought about these but I'm really not active enough for our Dobie, so min pins are out of the question!

They are cute! They look like maybe they play with their food. Dugan used to do this too be fore I moved in with Hubby. Now it is a competition for food with Kyia and if he doesn't eat it fast enough she will. HEHE

But they are so adorable!! And it looks like full of energy.

They do look active, but so cute. We have a 10 month old minature goldendoodle and he is very active also. We are retired, but so far can keep up with him. He weighs 40 lbs now and still thinks he is a lap dog. And he has us convinced too.
