    Doberman: Good Dog Bad Dog

    Many people think Dobermans are killers, all of them.
    Dobermans are great dogs when you treat them well. Dobermans are being killed every day because of irresponsible owners. People get Doberman puppies, thinking they are some other breed, when their vet tells them that their puppy is a Doberman, they want to get rid of them ASAP thinking that all Dobermans kill people. Post your Replys!! Tell Irrisponsible Doberman ownera and people that Dobermans are great dogs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Help me tell the world that Dobermans are not bad dogs!!!!!!!!

    of course you can't blame a dog if their owner had any bad influence on them..i don't think dobies are killers at all.
    i don't own one, but my uncle has had two (one died a few years after they got him ). their first dobie was such a sweetie! wouldn't hurt anyone ever. the one they have no gets excited very easily and she is a jumper but she is very playful. i love seeing her and she isn't the least bit scary it's terrible what some owners do to their dogs but i have never hard about that..

    I pet sit for two Dobies once. Talk about the best behaved and sweetest dogs I've ever worked with. These dogs were so gentle and nice. During the day I would let them in the back yard then at night I would have to bring them in and keep them in the kitchen with a baby gate. I was so worried that these two dogs would just knock over the little baby gate and take run of the house while I was gone. But they didn't, they waited in the kitchen until I came back in the morning to play with them and let them out again. I wish all my petsits could be as easy as those two Dobies were.

    Thanks for the great signature Kay!

    I LOVE DOBIES TOO. I don't have any right now but I will in the future. I grew up with dobermans. My mom was a breeder but she stopped when I was born. We had a 90 lb red Dobie named Red. He was the best dog ever. He didn't have a mean bone in his body. And was very well trained. When I was born he wouldn't let any of my parents friends in the room with me unless they told Red it was o.k. He was so smart. Also one time he saved me from a swan that was tring to attack me. Red jump in the water even though he didn't know how to swim and scarred the bird away. But he almost drowned.

    I have many other stories about him if you want to hear them. He's come to the rescue many times. Becasue of him I think that Dobermans are the best. and I let everyone know it!!!

    Movadomypup. Do you have a Doberman? If you do I would love to see pictures.

    OMG he is gorgeous. He has such a intelligent look on his face. He has the looks that I want in my future Doberman. He looks very big I am just curious, how much does he weigh?

    You are so lucky to have such a handsome and smart Doberman baby! It make me want to go out and get one right this second. I want to get a Dobie and agility train it and get into obedience trials. I think that would be so much fun!

    Did you get him from a breeder or a rescue? I've been looking for GoodDoberman breeders in my area but most are just trying to make a fast $$$ Also have been looking for a breeder that has larger sized Dobies(90lbs up) but are still healthy. I really liked the Kimbertal Dobermans They have great health guarantees.

    Well, I am so glad you shared Barracuda's picture. Do you have any moe. I would love to see them.

    Talk to you later,

    Well, he weighs about 88 pounds maybe more, maybe less, I haven't weighed him lately.
    I got him from my friend. She got him from a rescue as a pup, she couldn't take care of a big dog and she knew I wanted him, so the day after, he was mine.

    Sorry, I don't have any more pictures of him, he is kind of camra shy, the only reason he is so focused in this picture is because he was watching a squirrel ( )
    Dobi's are great at agility as any other dog. I think you have great ideas.

    I think that the Kimbertal Dobermans look kind of fat. But don't take my opinion on that. If I were you, I would get a Dobi at a Doberman Rescue. The Dobis at rescues are killed so that the Shelter can bring in more Dobis. And another reason, the breeders breed so they can get money, and not all of the pups get adopted, so that doen't help with the dog problem. I fyou adopt from a breeder, that is just incouriging them to breed them more, making the dog population bigger. So, I'd get one from a rescue. I might be getting a female, so stay tuned!!
