Affenpinscher translates from the German as "Monkey
Terrier" or "Monkey Dog" and they live up to
the name with their antics and personality. It helps to have a sense
of humor if you plan to live with an Affenpinscher. They
originally served double duty as ratters/mousers and as ladies
entertainment in the castles of their native Germany. On the
following pages are pictures of Affenpinschers and monkey terriers.
