Interesting Facts About Affenpinschers

Tired of seeing tricks and watching the antics of the common domesticated dogs? Why not adopt a rare dog breed that can bring joy to your home, like an Affenpinscher. 

This dog breed is well-known for getting rid of rats and other rodents. But Affens can do more than go after these pests. If you have the time and are dedicated, you can crate train your Affen. This method is recommended by experts because most Affens are hard to housetrain. 

It is also quite difficult to mix an Affen with other rodent pets like gerbils, ferrets, or hamsters given that this breed is trained to chase them. 

But do not worry; Affens can go well with fellow dogs and cats (if you train them well). Another note to consider: this breed may not be ideal for a pet if you have kids (toddlers) at home. The Affens have a reputation for not liking small children. However, they can develop a good and lasting relationship with older children and adult family members.

Another thing you should remember about the Affens is that their fur is hypoallergenic and wiry. However, these dogs also shed like the other common breeds.

So, have you decided to get an Affen? Be sure to adopt from a responsible puppy mill or breeder that ensures dogs are free from genetic diseases.
