I think when she does it and the other dog is not interested in playing you need to firmly tell her "No". If she doesn't stop, pick her up and put in her "timeout" place, a playpen, bathroom, or somewhere where she is away from the dog she is bothering for a few minutes. Bring her back. If she starts up again, repeat the process, until she gets tired of going in the "timeout" place and figures out her actions are connected to it.

You could also distract her with a toy or a training session or something else.

It woud be good to have a place where the min pin can go to get away from the puppy when she doesn't want to play. Maybe a crate, or bed that's too high for the puppy but accessible by the min pin. I know my westie and my poodle have chairs they jump up on that the yorkies cannot get on. The cat always goes to higher ground when she is one playing too.

Hope this works. Good luck!
