He grew into them in a big way. He is approximately 29" and weighs about 115 pounds which is too much weight. He needs to be at about 95 pounds. We have put him on Iams Senior diet and he is getting his evening walk about 5 days a week.
Come to think of it I need to lose 20 pounds myself!
Last picture (I swear)
Wow he's grown in too a VERY handsome boy!!!!!!!!! He's got a very shiny coat. A good caption would "Beware of Dog" and post it in your yard LOL
Tell Callihan not to feel bad. Felice is on Fit & Trim to lose 20-30 pounds. She about 120lbs. She's getting older now(9yo) and I don't want too much weight on her joints!
My mom had a wonderful red Doberman Named "Red" he was 28in tall and about 95lbs. He was a wonderful dog. She had him when I was born and growing up he was my best friend and protector! He died from a blood clot caused by a tumor removal surgery under his tail. :( He was 12. He looked very similar to your Quincy.
We had gotten another Doberman Red #2 but he was just too aggresive. He didn't like us children. we weren't safe around him. ( He bit my brother in the face leaving a large scare across his face) My mom did find him a good home though as a guard dog on a LARGE estate-all fenced in. Now that I am older I relized that he had come from a terrible breeder who was just looking for $
Becasue of Red #1 I have always loved Dobermans. Most are wonderful dogs!!!!!!!
We have a statue of a Doberman in our front yard and sometimes that scares people!!
Sorry to hear of Red. Dobermans as great as they are just have terrible health issues. Callihan is pretty healthy. After Quincey died we took Callihan to have his heart tested and the results were good.
How soon are you thinking of getting a Dobe?
My family is moving to Florida in June. So once we get settled in there and make sure everyhting is set, then we are planning on getting a Doberman(Yay) I told my mom to make sure we get a BIG yard(I want acerage) for the dogs.
I also want to get into obedience trials with my Doberman and do agility! That would be fun for me and the Dobie cause they always need something to do...so do I.
I am going to try to get a rescue Doberman in Florida but I have contacted one in NewYork before but they didn't want to give us one becasue we had other male dogs. Also I really want a puppy.
If I can get a rescue. I'll get a pup from a very good breeder.
I wish I could show you pictures of Red but I don't have a scanner. Maybe I'll get on for Christmas(hint hint mom) :D
I am really glad that Callihan is a big healthy boy. I wish most breeders tried harder to breed healthier dogs. It so upsetting when they die young because of a congenital diseases:(
ownerof3dogs, if you want a puppy then you should get a puppy!!!
Maybe if you do some research on Florida breeders/rescue in the next few months by the time you move there a puppy will be available?
When I was thinking of getting a Dobe puppy in October I found all kind of information on the web about rescue and breeders from all over the country.
Good luck and have a safe move.
Thanks for all of your kind words about Callihan!
Doberman's are NOT killers!!! I have the same problem...I have rottweilers....and everyone knows that all they do is kill people and are very aggressive....YAH RIGHT!!!!!! I hate the stereo type people give dogs.....
My neice had a Dobi and he was the BIGGEST baby you ever saw! Thought he was a lap dog.....
Ok so I'm a little late, didn't go through all the posts to see the BIG BEAUTIFUL BOY! What a cutie, no wonder you love him so much!
Barracuda or someone elses Dobi?
I love rottweilers as much as I love Dobi's. Dobis and Rottweilers are awsome dogs.
I would love to see pictures.

Thank you turner. He is very beautiful, and he thanks you.
Some how I missed this post. I also missed the other picture of Callihan laying on the floor as a adult. He is exactaly what I want my Doberman to look like. I know I have said it before, but he's breath taking. I showed his pic to my mom and she was like "WOW" he gorgeous and big!Quote:
