Talk:Affenpinscher

I've added appearance and history to this article. There should probably be temperment and trivia as well.

Latest template test on this article

Cannot figure it out!

For the life of me, I cannot figure out how to make the Quick Facts box come after the Contents box. I even modeled it after the text of other dog breed entries where the Quick Facts do come after the Contents. Please alter it if you can to make it work. --shawnregan.

Suggestion by IP

Note to editors: To skilled editors reading this, for some reason when you search for this breed it says that it's a monkey, so please fix that and delete this when it's fixed. (I can't add the proof so search it up, I'm not a skilled editor but came here to say this.) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2607:fea8:4260:287d:1d94:b4ae:a688:f752 (talk)

Can we give out a note that Affenpinschers are a rare breed?

On the Akc popularity rank, Affenpinschers are in 148th place out of 197 recognized breeds. Plus, why are they even called a pinscher, because the characteristics of one are pointed ears, usually Black and Tan in color, a pointed muzzle, and a slender body? The affenpinscher has none of these characteristics, and looks more like a black wire-haired pug!

You're welcome to include the AKC popularity into the article, but note that's it's American popularity and may not represent how popular the breed is in Germany.
As for the name, a pinscher is a type of German ratting dog - which the Affenpinscher historically was. Traumnovelle (talk) 03:18, 5 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I love affenpinschers, they look funny. 207.148.176.222 (talk) 03:01, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Artistic reference

Would it be appropriate to mention, with a link, that the dog in the 1434 Arnolfini Portrait is thought to be an early form of Affenpinscher? It's mentioned and referenced in that article's Description section, though elswhere in Other objects it's stated (with reference) that it might instead be a Griffon Bruxellois, a claim also repeated in that breed's article.

(I realise that identifying the breed of a dog portrayed (however accurately, and van Eyck's detail is stunning) nearly 600 years ago is problematical, because breeds can arise, change and disappear over shorter timespans that that.) {The poster formerly known as 87.81.230.195} 94.1.223.204 (talk) 21:54, 13 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It'd be fine to include that content with a source. I'm not completely sure if it should go in the history section, it's own, or just as a referenced image caption. Traumnovelle (talk) 23:02, 13 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
