Devon, no need to worry about researching- I will be doing a lot, this dog won't even be thought of for a few years. I am in an RVT program, so I am learning and having hands-on experience with veterinary medicine. In the short time I've spent researching already, I've already seen some dobe breeders to frown upon.. I've definitely noticed that Rottweilers are a more goofy breed, where as dobes are much more serious.
