“Best Breed I've ever owned!”
Written on: 30/09/2012 by elliottjr
Our first doberman lived until he was 15 years 8 months old (I kid you not!). Considering he nearly died when he was 10 from a very serious nose infection where the specialist vet had to perform 4 life-saving operations including blood transfusions etc. So to think we had over 5 more wonderful years with him it was a miracle! We chose to have him put to sleep eventually as he was having too hard of a time getting up and down with his hind legs, God love him though he kept trying but we could... (read more)

“amarisk9 YUCK”
Written on: 17/06/2012
My 4 year old dog just died from a heart condition. He also could barely walk from severe hip and back dysplasia. During the first year of his life, he was treated at the dermatologist for mange - all from poor, poor breeding. I contacted the breeder multiple times, only to be told his medical problems were MY fault. The only saving grace was that my precious dog had the best medical care. His life, however short, enriched our lives. I pray no other family has to endure this tragedy. Please... (read more)

Written on: 28/03/2011
I lost my second doberman one month ago at the age of 14. Our first dobie lived until 13. We have had two beautiful, faithful, loving dogs. They are eager to please and will guard you for life - when you least expect it! I have had 3 sons and both dogs tolerated the kids. I never left other children unsupervised around my dogs when my children were present. If other children chased after my boys our dog would get uneasy - perhaps because they felt their family member was in danger. ... (read more)

i know how you feel as my krieger dobermann was 8yrs 7months when he suddenly collapsed and died of d.c.m. he had also suffered from wobblers syndrome that was treated at the edinburgh vet school in 2009. although as you say they are the best dogs, i am not getting another dobermann as they have too many health problems now. i cannot suffer anymore heartbreak as zak was my third dobermann.

My Dobermann is nearly 3 years old and is an absolute joy! I have never owned a dog before so I lept right in at the deep end. I would advise it's probably best not to get a dobie if you don't have experiance with dogs. They are extremely intelligent and demand alot of social play. They love to please so obedience training 15 mins a day is recommended to keep them in check. You MUST make sure you are the alpha or they will run rings around you. Lots of exercise is an absolute must. They are... (read more)

My beautiful and regal Cezar died today of sudden heart failure. He was 11 years and 10 months old. He was both my children born, now ages 7 & 10, and always loved and protected them. He would gently put himself between my kids, and strangers at all times. Never being aggressive, just letting the other person know that he always had my kids back.
He loved to play, and was scary intelligent. That is one reason I have always loved Dobe's, they are so very smart.

In honour of my 5 year old Doberman dog. They make cracking dogs as long as you have lots of time for them. They are very demanding and will whinge you to death if you ignore them or don't walk them often enough. These dogs can literally run a marathon a day and still keep going! Don't ever hit a doberman. Their sensitive and intelligent nature and the way they absolutely idolise their owner can make striking a doberman a one way street. First they will loose respect for you and become less...

hi
<br/>you could perhaps try a glucosamine or devil's claw supplement. we have a rhodesian ridgeback and she had started to have some mobility problems, but like your dog, the vet could find nothing wrong. we started to give her a glucosamine supplement 2 months ago now and she is a new dog, much happier in herself and getting up and down no problem! devil's claw is also supposed to be good for mobility. of course ask your vet about this first. hope this helps, though. :)

She keeps us on the go 24/7, she's a thief, underwear being her favourite thing. She doesn't greet you, she levels you out. She eats anything and everything if its not pinned down.

I have got a 2 year old doberman, who suffered anxiety separation, but i have managed to cure it, i started of by leaving her for very short periods of time, and every time i leave the house i say to her 'going to the shops be a good girl' i would just pop out for 10 mins then gradually leaving it longer so then she knew i was always coming back to her, it really did work. Hope this is of some help for any one that has this separation problem.

hi there
<br/>a good cure for jumping up is to ignore him until he calms down. also, for pulling i would say a combination of choke collar and a halter, so when he doesn't pull, he is only on the halter, which is very comfortable for them and when he pulls, just a quick tug on the choker. this may seem harsh, but it is only necessary a few times, then you can go out with just the halter. separation anxiety is a difficult one, we've had trouble for a while. plenty of toys and being left in a secure outdoor area in warm weather are two things, just leave something to keep him occupied if you can. one of my friend's dogs is only comforted by leaving the telly on! some like the radio, so they can hear a human voice. hope this helps :)

We recently lost our 6 year old dobermant to sudden death on New Year's Eve. We found out that he had an enlarged heart and irregular heart rate in early October and had him on the latest medication, but could not prevent his untimely death. What a loss... he was smart, beautiful and a great companion. We decided to purchase another dobie within a month and has helped us heal in a special way. I am sorry about your loss and understand how empty you must feel.

I couldn't wish for more in a dog. Our Doberman has been so easy to train, and she so loving and so giving. She is great with children and other animals. It's a shame a few people see the need to avoid her (even when she was 3 months old), but that is their issue.
I believe we are very lucky with our dog. Her temperament is fantastic, and she is very laid back and soft. She really is a fantastic example of a loving family dog.

<br/>Of course, it is the breed of dog which I have had experience with, and I agree with everything you wrote. It's all a matter of training, and as Ignatius Loyola said; "Give me the child and I'll give you the man".

Not very hard at all. Dobermans are very much willing to learn, but they can get bored quickly. About 30 minutes a day is Roxy's limit.
<br/>
<br/>When she was 12 weeks old, we taught her to sit, lie down and paw in 2 days.
<br/>
<br/>The only problems we did have with her were house training and her being left alone. She wasn't destructive, but she did used to bark. I think if we left her home alone a lot more when she was younger, we wouldn't have had this problem.
<br/>
<br/>I have also found that Roxy gets tired much quicker through doing training, learning tricks and generally using her brain than she does when walking!

"The Doberman Pinscher has been used as a protection dog, due to its intelligence, loyalty, and ability to physically challenge human aggressors. Doberman Pinschers were once commonly used in police work and in the military. The breed was used extensively by the U.S. Marines in World War II, and 25 Marine War Dogs died in the Battle of Guam in 1944: there is a memorial on Guam in honor of these Doberman Pinschers. In these roles, they inspire fear. They are often stereotyped in such roles in movies (where they are trained to exhibit seemingly "aggressive" behavior), and video games, so consequently many people are afraid of the breed. A related problem is the misunderstanding of their legitimate roles; because guard dogs are trained to neutralize unwelcome intruders, many people mistakenly believe that Doberman Pinschers are vicious.
<br/>
<br/>Doberman Pinschers are, in general, a gentle, loyal, loving, and highly intelligent breed. Although there is variation in temperament, a typical pet Doberman attacks only if it believes that it, its property, or its family are in danger. According to a study done by the Centers for Disease Control, the Doberman Pinscher is involved in human dog bite-related incidents less frequently than many other dog breeds. Those familiar with the breed consider well-bred and properly socialized Doberman Pinschers to be excellent pets and companions, suitable for families with other dog breeds, excellent with young children, and even cats. The modern Doberman Pinscher is well known as a loyal and devoted family member".

I have 2 chocolate and tan Dobermans. One is 2 years old and oversized full male and the other is 1 year old smaller sized, full male. They are brothers and do not fight very often.
They were introduced to my partners children (age 3 and 4) and have never had attention issues or aggressiveness towards them.

I just got my blue doberman 2 weeks ago, she is now 7 weeks old. She is the most intelligent pup I have ever seen. It took me 1 week to potty train her and she knows "sit" and "no". She is protective of me already but knows exactly how to act around my 1 year old nephew. I am so glad I chose a doberman, I can tell she is going to be the best dog ever!!
