Isakhi esithinta imilenze emifushane yomhlobo siye safaniswa nomunye ofanayo onika ama-dachshunds nesi-Welsh corgis isithunzi sabo esinciphisa. Kodwa-ke, njengoba umgogodla wekati uhlukile ngokwenyama, ama-munchkins awahlupheki ngezinye izikhathi izinkinga zomgogodla ezihlotshaniswa nalezo zinhlobo ze-canine.

Eminyakeni yama-1940, e-UK, udokotela wezilwane wachaza amakhelwane ambalwa amakati ezinemilenze emifushane. Nakuba lo mzila wanyamalala phakathi neMpi Yezwe II, ikati elincane elinemilenze yabonakala eStalingrad ngo-1953. Nokho, kwaze kwafika ngo-1983 lapho ikati elincane elinemilenze, elibizwa ngokuthi i-Blackberry, latholakala uSandra Hochenedel eLouisana, namuhla Uhlobo lwe-Munchkin lwazalwa.
