Internet Miniature Pinscher Service - Carolinas

The Internet Miniature Pinscher Service, Inc. (IMPS)mission is to improve the lives of homeless and abandoned Miniature Pinschers through rescue and the love and respect that comes with humane care, compassion and kindness. IMPS was formed in July of 1998 with the rescue and adoption of Lister through the Miniature Pinscher e-mail group at saluki.org.

IMPS attempts to assist Miniature Pinschers in need by providing foster care, transport, adoptive homes, veterinary care, and other services and information for the well-being of Miniature Pinschers.

Additional adoption info

All Miniature Pinschers placed through IMPS will be spayed or neutered prior to placement, have proof of appropriate vaccinations, and have been thoroughly evaluated by a breed representative for temperament and training needs.

All potential adopters complete an adoption application, and will undergo a vet reference check, personal reference check, and home screening. Discussion with the foster family is essential to finding the best match for both the dog and you. Always ask about habits, both good and bad.

IMPS requires reimbursement of all necessary veterinary costs. A small additional donation is requested with each adoption so that we may continue to care for chronically ill and/or severely injured foster dogs. Travel costs are borne by the adopter. In all cases, any expenses related to the adoption will be agreed upon prior to placement.
