The origins of the German Pinscher are unknown.[6]Template:R/superscript Dogs of this type, both rough-haired and smooth-haired, were traditionally kept as carriage dogs or as stable dogs, and so were sometimes known as Script error: No such module "Lang".; they were capable ratters.[6]Template:R/superscript Both types were known as Deutscher Pinscher, and came from the same lineage; rough-haired and smooth-haired puppies could occur in the same litter.[6]Template:R/superscript The rough-haired Pinscher, which would later become the Standard Schnauzer, was also known as the Script error: No such module "Lang"..[6]Template:R/superscript[7]Template:R/superscript
The "smooth Pinscher" is mentioned by Heinrich Gottlieb Ludwig Reichenbach in 1836.[6]Template:R/superscript In 1880 the Pinscher was recorded in the Deutschen Hundestammbuch of the Verein zur Veredelung der Hunderassen.[8]Template:R/superscript In 1895 Template:Ill described five varieties of Pinscher – the rough- and smooth-haired Pinscher, the rough- and smooth-haired Miniature Pinscher, and the Affenpinscher; of the smooth-haired Pinscher he says that it is becoming less common, and is not often seen at dog shows.[6]Template:R/superscript[7]Template:R/superscript In 1895 a breed society, the Pinscher-Schnauzer-Klub, was established for both types, both rough- and smooth-haired.[8]Template:R/superscript
The Pinscher almost disappeared in the years after the Second World War. It was reconstructed by Werner Jung from a single standard-sized animal and four unusually large Miniature Pinschers.[3]Template:R/superscript[6]Template:R/superscript After eight years in which no births were recorded, a litter was whelped in 1958.[6]Template:R/superscript The Pinscher was definitively accepted by the Fédération Cynologique Internationale in 1955.[1]Template:R/superscript
The Deutscher Pinscher is an endangered breed. In 2003 it was, with the Großspitz and the Mittelspitz, the 'endangered breed of the year' of the Gesellschaft zur Erhaltung alter und gefährdeter Haustierrassen; there were at that time 40 breeding bitches.[6]Template:R/superscript In 2022 it was listed in category III, Script error: No such module "Lang". ('endangered'), of the Rote Liste of that organisation.[5]Template:R/superscript In each of the ten years from 2008 to 2017 the number of puppies whelped was between 350 and 450; in 2016 and 2017 there were just over 50 litters per year.[3]Template:R/superscript
Characteristics
The German Pinscher is of medium size, with weights for both dogs and bitches in the range 14–20 kg and a height at the withers between 45 and 50 cm.[4]Template:R/superscript The coat is dense, short and smooth; it may be either black-and-tan or self-coloured red, this varying from a light stag-red to a dark reddish brown.[4]Template:R/superscript[2]Template:R/superscript
