German Pinscher:
he German Pinscher, also called the Standard Pinscher, is a medium-sized, tall terrier with a strong, smooth, glossy coat that comes in red fawn, black & tan, and dark brown with yellow markings. Black with tan markings is the most common. The alert expressive ears have a natural fold when they are uncropped. Cropped ears are high set. Its long muzzle is bluntly tipped with a medium-sized, black nose. The body is robust and well muscled, like a Schnauzer's. Although well balanced with elegant lines, the breed isn't as sleek and taut as the Doberman. The dog's back is straight and the tail is customarily docked. The German Pinscher can be an ideal companion dog. This rare breed has a sense of humor, is brave, not squeamish, sober, and have considerable stamina. It is lively but docile, quite versatile, and a vocal guard dog. It responds to obedience training. However, they can be bull headed and stubborn and need to know who is boss. This breed only barks when it feels it is necessary, which may be often. Visitors will be announced with loud barking but then things usually calm down quickly. The German Pincher is not a good breed for children for this reason; they may not differentiate between a real problem and some good old roughhousing.
