JEC SEMINAR
The MPCA holds a Judges' Breed Study Group Seminar at each year's national specialty. Click here, for dates and hotel information. Cost is $20.00 per individual. Participants receive the MPCA Illustrated Breed Study Guide, a catalog, ring-side mentoring and a certificate of completion. Contact Madeline Miller for seminar information and reservations.
The Judges' Education section is intended to serve as an educational tool for judges, breeders and exhibitors to help form a correct image of the "perfect" Miniature Pinscher and to promote a better understanding of and appreciation for the breed standard of the Miniature Pinscher. We hope is site will serve as a guide in interpreting that standard.
Breeders and judges should both emphasize the positive. Breeders have the responsibility to try to breed Miniature Pinscher's as decribed by the standard. Judges must find and place those dogs that best represent the qualities called for in the standard. Breeders and Judges both must consider the whole dog, not overemphasizing any one part. Reward the virtues and penalize faults to the extent of the deviation from the ideal.
The Miniature Pinscher Club of America, Inc. is dedicated to providing accurate educational material to judges, aspiring judges and exhibitors.
