ABOUT NIZHONI MINIATURE PINSCHERS

I hope you enjoy visiting my "kids".
After almost 16 years of being involved with this wonderful little breed,as you can see....I'm exhausted! However, you will meet Min Pins at all stages of life, from newborns to seniors. I hope that in meeting each one you will get some insight into the wonderful and varied personality of a Min Pin. There are certain characteristics that they have in common with each other. All Min Pins are entertaining & animated little clowns. Each one is also an individual with their own special traits. In reading about each, you will get some insight into the Min Pin personality.
Except for the ones that sleep with us at nite, my dogs are paired up for sleeping at night, but during the day they enjoy running as a pack. Actually about 3 packs. The boys are kept separated (We believe in planned parenthood & those boys are sneaky and fast!) Everyone gets along because, like Cesar Milan, Joe & I ARE the pack leaders.
I am not alone when I say that once you've been owned by a Min Pin it is hard to imagine your life without one........or two.....or three. That's just the way it is.

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT: DO READ MY PAGE TOWARDS THE BOTTOM OF THE MENU "YOUR PETS HEALTH"

LAST BUT NOT LEAST..CHECK OUT THE LAST PAGE OF THIS WEBSITE. I HAVE FOUND JUST A FEW GREAT MIN PIN THINGS LIKE TUNNEL BEDS, COLLARS ETC ETC. THINGS I PERSONALLY USE OR HAVE FOR MY KIDS...

CRICKET.....my Senior Citizen
Cricket went to the rainbow bridge in June.....She was 17 & my first Min Pin & my very special girl. She was a "winter pup". I got her for Valentine's Day from hubby when she was 9 weeks old. Min Pins are definitely "under the cover dogs". They do not like the cold. My 3 Rotts made xlnt babysitters and heating blankets. Cricket would drape herlittle body over their back or cuddle into their belly.

She was my constant companion. Whatever room of the house I'm was in, she there, at my feet. I cherished each day that I had with her.


INT'L CH NIZHONI'S MURPHY BROWN
MURPHY BROWN is now comfortably retired.
Murphy was out of Cricket's first litter, so became 2nd in command around here.I regard Murphy as one of my foundation bitches. Murphy tomcollage-produced some outstanding babies and many years of Min Pin love. Her Dad was mostly Bluehen breeding.
As a 2 year old she took Reserve in Flagstaff The judge was president of the Min Pin Club...made us feel real proud!
Murphy was shown under 3 AKC Judges & received her IABKCA International Championship Certification.

Murphy's also quite a celebrity in our book. Actually she's in a book. It came about in 1997 when a freelance photographer asked my handler if she could take some photos of her dogs at an dog show in Tucson. She said sure, as long as we can get copies or negatives. She kind of kept her promise & did send one negative. We had no idea what these people do with pictures, but obviously they sell them to publishers of various things. Well, a new breed book appeared on Min Pins the following year entitled "The New Owner's Guide to Miniature Pinschers". The author is Jacqueline O'Neil. To our surprise we found Murphy pictured on page 49 sitting with her pal Dallas. There is a great picture of her litter sister, Reba on page 103.There's also a couple of photos, one a full page, of my handlers daughter with one of my little chocolate boys. This is a nicely done book, with alot of xlnt photos that represent our king of toys.
THEN to add to our joy we found this beautiful photo (shown here) of Murphy, featured not only on the cover but also for the month May in a Min Pin Calendar published by Pet Prints. When I found she was in it I called the publisher to get a copy (well actually,I bought the 7 they had left because it was already May! Even tho' this was several years ago, I will always think of Murphy as my calendar girl! Murphy blessed us with beautiful pups, some of which I kept over the years and who have made my line what it is today.

NIZHONI'S I'M PLAYING THE FIELD
I'm very pleased to introduce you to Mamie & Thomas. I haven't had any dogs shown for several years. Not that there aren't several show dogs at Min Pin Heaven...I just haven't retaken that leap of faith. The loss of my husband several years ago just took the wind from my sails. I'm ready to move forward in life.
The results of the Lucy/Trucker litter inspired me. With the help & encouragement of some respected show breeders I kept 2 pups now known as Mamie & Thomas. I named them in honor of my very dear friends Mamie VanDoren & her hubby Thomas Dixon.
Mamie wrote a book a few years ago entitled "Playing the Field", thus my Mamie's registered name.
They both started showing this month (May) in the puppy class. I haven't been in the ring in many years so a little nervous but optimistic that we will have resident Champions here! Wish us all well.Click on the enlarged photo to see a wonderful picture of them. They're quite the twins.

MAMIE EARNED HER FIRST 2 POINTS IN NEW MEXICO ...

NIZHONI'S BLADE RUNNER
Coming up with a registered name for Mamie that connected her to Mamie VanDoren via her book was pretty easy. But her hubby is just a wonderful, regular guy. Mamie's a wonderful, regular gal too, but she's a movie star, wrote a book etc. I was stumped. So I called Mamie for help! They are both animal lovers and particulary Min Pin lovers. They are tickled that I named my 2 "star prospects" after them. (It's a dog lover thing!) After discussing various name possibilities, Mamie said that Thomas's favorite movie is Blade Runner. Sounded good to us. So that's his registered name. He's a little darker and a little smaller than his sister...also being a boy, just a love!
So we're ready, set and let's do it Mamie & Thomas!!
