any dog can live outside. but how long is the better question. min pins are very social and should not be kept as outdoor pets. personally none of my dogs are outdoors, but i've known a few outdoor dogs that are well loved, taken care of, exercised and are just fine. none of them being a min pin or any other small dog. they are susecptable to wild animals because of their size, and well they just can't be happy. yes you're right. they can live outside, but you should be a responsible pet owner and not let them. you should provide vet care, spay or neuter, premuim food, plenty of training, socialization, exercise, and love.

Min Pins are dogs that like to be close to their people and with their very very short hair, they don't tend to like the cold. Even dogs with good coats unless they have the husky or chow like undercoat AND good shelter, shouldn't be out in the cold for too long if it is very cold.
So yeah, let your min pins live inside. They will be happier. Even in good weather dogs can get real bored being out side all day and night.

Why bother getting a dog if you're gonna leave it outside?
I never understood that.
