#4 The face of the breed is characterized by a well-defined and high-domed forehead. The stop should be spherical rather than straight.
The animal has its V-shaped ears turned forward. According to the breed standard, small, pricked ears are desired.
Breathnaíonn an Affenpinscher ar a úinéir le cuma neamhchiontach, déantar an éifeacht seo a threisiú ag na claibíní dubh, cruinn. Is saintréith é droichead díreach gearr na srón freisin. Cé go bhfuil jaw íochtair upturned ag na hainmhithe agus underbite, níor chóir na fiacla a bheith le feiceáil nuair a bhíonn an béal dúnta. Mar a thugann an t-ainm le fios, is moncaí é an t-ainmhí i gcuimhne. Breathnaíonn sé go gleoite lena mhalaí agus a ghuairneáin. Ina dhiaidh sin tá muineál gearr agus cúl beagán fána. Críochnaíonn sé i slat cuartha i gcruth corrán nó sabre.
#5 In general, the breed adapts to the lifestyle of its owners. She feels at home in both the city and the country, provided she gets enough exercise.
The Affenpinscher is by no means suitable for couch potatoes who prefer to spend their evenings in front of the television. The lively animal appreciates long walks and hikes in nature and likes to let off steam with other animals. He likes to live out his urge to move in dog sports: Dog dancing is just one of the activities he enjoys. With his clever mind, he also learns tricks in no time at all.
