I've heard talks that there is now a Teacup Doberman.. Not a min pin but an actual pocket sized doberman...

Please tell me I'm wrong...*shudder*

I'm sure it is just a small Minpin, most "pet people" consider Minpins to be mini Dobes.

Everybody around here calls MinPins Mini Dobes. It's disgusting. There is also the German Pinscher, that people might confuse.

Gawd I hope it's just that! Alex was actually the one who brought it up. And he knows the difference between a Min Pin and a Dobie. Wink Not that I had anything to do with his knowledge. Lol

It seems to be a common thing for people to call Min Pins Mini Dobermans. Sad I wouldn't call a German Pinscher pocket sized, but the thought crossed my mind that people might be calling them Mini Dobermans, especially since they look more like a Dobe then a Min Pin.

I've never heard anything about them. But I've also never heard anyone call a min pin a mini doberman either.
