I just tried the "whisper" on my girl and got her complete attention (Yay). I also love the idea of training her before feeding. I'll start that one tomorrow. Good stuff. Thanks!
@Ignacio Reed o(k
I sometimes go through the comments and like all, cuz everybody who watches your videos need to be rewarded.
Haha! Darius, that is so kind! Thanks so much for all the love!
Possessive over food...add a surprise food treat to the dish when you reach into the food. Ahh what's dad giving me?
That's a great idea, Dennis! Thanks for sharing that tip with us - the Dobie would be so excited to see a little surprise!
Also hand feed the dog if they have guarding issues
@@DobermanPlanet Hand feeding is the best technique, works very well with wolf hybrids and its builds a strong bond.
My dad grew up with Dobermans and after years of hearing him want one we finally got one two weeks ago! It’s no exaggeration when I say your videos have helped SO much! Thank u!!
I would advise using a washable cloth instead of baby wipes for two reasons:
1. you don't know if the chemicals on wipes may irritate your dog (they'll lick their fur after, too)
2. wipes aren't re-usable and are made of plastic, making them an environmental hazard.
Chamois leather cloth is a good option
Yep. I use a wet rag/cloth/washcloth
Huggies natural care are cotton and water only 99% cotton 1% water
There can chemicals in certain wipes that are toxic to dogs. Cloth and bowl of dog shampoo is much better.
can be chemicals
Ha! The 'poop trick' has worked on all dobes I've had (5)!
Consider hand feeding...that combines several of your tricks. We started using that with our service dobe.👍😁
That's great! Thanks so much for sharing your strong record of success with us. It's encouraging to hear that this trick has been working for such a long time for all your Dobies! Love the hand feeding idea as well!
I think that chalk trick actually refers to boric acid chalk. Regular chalk isn't going to dissuade very many ants if any at all. But boric acid is sold in chalk form and would be effective at deterring them without putting the dog at any risk
(21 years pest control)
That's very interesting, Greg! Will have to do some more research on that and see if getting some boric acid chalk would work even better! Very good tip - thank you for sharing!
this guy should get OVER 1million subscribers from DOBERMAN OWNER's cuz hes so damn good
I have a question. Does Arlo ever argue with you or throw a "doberman tantrum" ?? Copper, my red doberman, does this from time to time and i find it so funny !!
Oh gosh mine does that too 😂
I know my Dobie throw tantrums 😁
My Doberman is 7 weeks and he does so many tantrums esp at night 😭 do u correct them? Or let them just do it?
I have a beautiful Doberman he’s just turned 9 years old. Sadly he has a cancer Diagnosis is bone cancer and he was only supposed to live a few weeks but he’s lived over here I’ve been working really hard trying to keep him healthy and well but I can’t imagine being without a Doberman. I love him so much and he makes me so happy.🥰☹️
I have my Dobie eating out of an elevated food bowl seems to help him eat more comfortably, also not as much gas too
Thank you! Grandpa gets terrible gas. I'll have to try this!
My dog loves the snow. He also doesn't care if it's raining or cold outside.
Then you don't have a dobie lol
@@charlesstraley9274 I dunno, I have videos on here that prove I have one. :-)
I trained our doberman puppy to sit and then stay during meal time.. Really effective 😊
To help with our puppy’s “resource guarding” , we didn’t put our hand in the bowl. We held the bowl and fed him by hand. There were several nips we got at first because well, he believes he is always starving! However now, 7 yrs old, in the middle of eating I can call him over and he will stop eating to see what I want then I usually give him a small treat and send him right back to his food. Feeding by hand was tedious at first but it has paid off!! He won’t even get upset when my cat shows up to see what he has for dinner.
Still can't believe there are over 100 thousand subscribers!
Makes one wonder if it's worth having any other breed.
As a family we have a Doberman and a medium-sized mongrel, and I've got to say I prefer the mongrel's laid-back temperament; the Dobe is very much THERE. Impossible to do art in the same room, for example. But I love the breed when they settle and are well trained, which these videos really help to achieve!
@@zauberholz8357 I am considering getting a companion dog for my intact Doberman. But I am hesitant. He is well behaved inside - but another dog could distract him.
@@raymonddeflaviis2306 Yes there are a lot of things to consider with two dogs! I think if you have another it works better if they're similar energy-wise.
Our situation is complicated, as the Doberman belongs to my grandparents and she has run of the living room/kitchen, while my mongrel stays in this side of the house/my bedroom. Dobe is 7 months old, mongrel 4 years, and has been here longer. Dobe bullies mongrel so they can't be in the same room for long unfortunately! It's sad as she got on well with the last Dobie who died a couple of years ago aged 10.5yrs. Their energies were more balanced.
I would recommend adopting an adult dog so you can see how they get on beforehand! One who can be an equal playmate for your Dobe, while not challenging him for food/toys/your attention etc. as he might get jealous.
@@zauberholz8357 Thanks for the feedback. Sounds spot on from what I have observed when we bring his "girlfriend" over, for playdates.
It's a lot more challenging owning an intact male. My life would be easier if I had him castrated, like so many do. But I am confirmed in keeping him intact.
And yes, even at 7 months old, a male Doberman can be an asset for personal protection.
@@raymonddeflaviis2306 A dog similar to his "girlfriend" would probably be a good match, then!
I can imagine it is a challenge. For their health it's definitely better to wait until they're fully mature, especially for big breeds. Personally I think it's best left until after 2 years old, though it's still a controversial area.
All show dogs are left intact, so it's clearly something that can be managed as long as the dog isn't left to roam! We just don't go to the park when our female is on heat.
We tried adding a large Kong to the food bowl ... our dobey took the Kong and went into living room to chew it ... so funny. Great video ... out dobey is a scooby doo.
🤣
I find the open handed strike to the top of the nose with a loud OOOSSS normally does the trick for unwanted behaviour
Love from Sri Lanks 🇱🇰
Hey John,
Last time I checked in with you I was headed up to Oregon to visit my breeder for my future Dobermann pup. Well, that particular weekend they got 12” of snow so I postponed til March 12. I’m driving 9 hrs to visit the dogs so I’m taking getting my new pup very seriously and doing all the homework I can to make sure I’m prepared as a Dobie Dad.
I continue to watch all of your videos and feel you have prepared me to give my future Dobermann the best possible life. It’s awesome the kind of material that you present and your commitment to the breed is nothing short of amazing. Im very appreciative of your time and your passion towards this breed. Thank you for all you do for the Dobermann and I will be checking in with you when I return from my trip👍.
Keep up the awesome work
hows the doberman journey going for you so far? im getting my pup christmas eve, im excited!
Number 7, done this with every dog we've ever had. I lift the food bowl and pretend to eat from it, then give it back, give a 'wait' command, then 'OK'. Really important I think.
Awesome work again John
by the time i get a dog i feel like im gonna be so confident in training it! love your videos
i'd honestly love to get a dobie one day, but i know i'll have to get one when i've dealt with my own issues since i wont be anywhere near ready if im tired all the time or something like that
this channel is super helpful so i'll keep it in mind when i know im ready!
Good insight there John.
Nyx loves the snow, but hates rain.
She loves barking at people then turns to a suck once/if they come see her. Like you've said in the past, the pandemic has slowed her people socialization down a bit, but she's great with dogs and their owners at the dog parks.
Cheers
That's a good point, Joshua! People really have to be intentional about socializing their pups - especially during this whole pandemic. Keep up the great work with Nyx!
Bringing our girl Arwen tomorrow!!!!! THX so much we love your channel!!!
love watching your videos man! I’ve been showing my mom some of your videos to convince her to let me get a Doberman because she’s really scared of them just because she thinks they’re aggressive and their looks!!
We use the Kong Wobbler in a water heater tray ( to keep the food in one area instead of all over the floor) to slow down Ducati's eating. It works great.
Your videos are awesome!! Me and the fam are getting a dog this summer and we love using your videos for help, and your facts kinda helped persuade my mom the right way, and now she wants a Doby too! I have three separate TH-cam things and I am subscribed to you on each on! I also liked the vid! So basically I wanted to say thanks for all of the helpful videos and keep up the good work!
It's great to hear from you, Jeremy! Thanks so much for being a faithful Dobie lover - it's nice to know the videos are having a positive impact in your family's life!
Nice 88 5.0 Foxbody Mustang.
"You don't want your dog to think that their name is No" ... That's a good one! 😜
Thanks!!! very big thanks here from the Philippines!!! I am checking all the videos for a week now because I am planning, preping carefully to have a dobie 6 months from now. I'm about to move from my family's house and start all over since I am now single, ang got separated from my partner. Your channel and videos made me to decide to have a dobie as a protection and companion dog, somewhat a therapy dog...looking forward to seeing new videos in the future. More power to you and your channel!! Mabuhay👍✌️🎉
Not one of my dogs including the newest a Doberman have I ever had any issues with over eating or eating to fast.. I always have food set out for him. My observation is he eats a few bits then he's good.. Same with my rottis. In fact, you may not agree with it but with my rottis I started just leaving the food bag open and they just eat when ever they want.. I wonder if some of these problems develop due to how the owner is feeding the dogs.. I'd like to have a conversation.. Just things I've encountered. My first time having a Doberman. I'm loving it.
That floppy run at 8:55 was the best!
I was so certain you were going to use the rub on the whole counter to make it slippery and thought you were a genius 😭 thank god I waited ten more seconds before making a huge mess
Your videos are amazing, I have a Great Dane and these work on pretty much any XL/XXL breed! Love how much you educate on BLOAT. Even breeds like poodles and Shepard’s aren’t safe from a bloat emergency.
Arlo has grown into a Beautiful boy. Love the channel, keep up the good work.
So glad to hear from you and to know what an impact is being made! Please don't be a stranger here!
@@DobermanPlanet sent you 5 pictures and 1 video. Enjoy
Thanks for sharing these tips. Learned ALOT here.
Great video! Thanks for the tips and tricks! Keep up the good videos.
Wow! this is very helpful 😇
Aww love when they start to cuddle on the lap.
These are so clever and useful ❤️👍🙏
This channel is amazing with so many tips and well put together videos. Please release a book
Thanks for this video! We feel so much more prepared for our first Dobe after watching all of your videos...we can’t wait!
Thank you so much for the information. I just got my first Doberman and your videos are helping me a lot!
Who's here this early?😂✋🏼
Gotta love Arlo and your videos, I'm getting a Doberman pup next week because i got sooo motivated from your videos and I'm gonna name him after Cooper ❤
pumped about getting one of these dogs, this is a great video.
Yes, put the shit in the ground, it really helps!! Good tips John!! 🐾🐾grts from Finn the doberman and Maja from belgium 😉
Thanx.... much appreciated
greetz from Sweden
John these videos help so much I have a entire playlist of these videos and we might move sometime this year and I’m hoping it’s before my birthday so I can get a Doberman
Thank you so much for your tips!
My Doberman Puppy comes Monday and I’m so excited 😍
Love the videos man, life saver for real
Thanks so much, Randall! That's great to know...please don't be a stranger on here!
I just recently got a little Doberman puppy named Logan, and I was watching your vids all week! He’s my first dobie! I’ve learned so much from them! Keep ‘em coming!
Nice thanks!💐
Another great video brother!
Say, it appears that you might be in Arizona...
This is such an interesting video! it’s so great, amazing job again!
Video idea- off leash training and recall. There are not a lot of videos out there about this and I know Doberman’s are Velcro dogs a lot of the time but recall is so important so I think it would be beneficial to many owners!
Thank you !
Solid advice like always!
Thanks so much, Marino! It's great to hear from you!
First time Doberman owner, because i was at the right place at the right time. I rescued her. So I know nothing about her except that she's Doberman and I believe German Shepherd. What's the best food to keep her healthy
I love these dogs
I so want a pup Doberman to love! ♥️
When I find your channel and so happy I’ve been doing a few of these already. We got Rolex 3 weeks ago and it has been the best decision we’ve made. 😃😃
AMAZING VIDEO! i'm getting a dobermann puppy soon thanks to your help! keep up the great work!!
That's so great to hear! Thanks so much for reaching out and sharing the exciting news! Here to support you!
I was wondering if you had any tips for ear posting. Or if you might do a video on it at some point.
I’m trying to do as much research as possible before I decide to get a Doberman. Your content is very helpful and informative.
Thank you for all the helpful videos. I love your videos they have been very useful. They have helped me and the wife out a lot. I need a tip on how to keep my 13 week old female doberman from biting and harassing our cats. Again thank you again for the great videos.
Thank you so much I have a dobe and he digs alot
Of course, Mia! Please check out this video on how to stop digging permanently: th-cam.com/video/pVONKlVRJoU/w-d-xo.html and this video if you need more of an immediate fix:th-cam.com/video/-WoCUyIsAkI/w-d-xo.html. Hope these help!
speaking about the breeding...what happened with Arol's breeding? did you find out if he's from the other male? you haven't given any info on that.
👍👌👏👋🙋♀️
Lots of love from germany!
Stay safe and healthy!
Good tips
I Am Paralyzed, I just took on a 1 yr Male. My favorite trick is the last one . I just need my dog to be smart with common sense . All the tricks look great 👍 im used to Rotts and may get him a Rott
Thanks for the tip, I did not know they were prone to bloat
My doberman has a problem digging into the couch, so i tried the poop trick with the couch and it works!
I found out last weekend that I misunderstood breeder about DNA testing she requires. There is no blood DNA testing. I need to do EXACTLY what you asked us all to do with our dobes. I need to do the x-rays and get hip info to see how that is. Good grief. I should have a how-to book with all I am required to do before saying anything. Well, I'm learning. All I know for sure is I await every single video you do. My heart is in the shape of a dobe. That is all I am sure of.
You can get the DNA kit all you have to do is swab the inside of the dogs mouth send it back
I always use baby wipes on my dogs especially after the dog park or during spring. My female loves to run and her under carriage is always covered in mud or sand. There also great for cleaning paws.
They also make bowls with deep groves to make it harder for them to eat quickly.
Anyone have the link for video he did on what dog brush to use on dobies?
I wonder what the purpose of the dog walking between your legs trick is for - is it just for obedience or does that serve a specific purpose?
Great video. My doberman pulls very hard against the leash. I tried the prong collar but she still pulls. What to do. elaine Payne
When I turn 20 I’m getting a Dobermann, I’m 18 rn
Isn't there a way to do a search in a TH-cam channel, if you are looking for a certain one of their videos?
Hi guys, i am planning on getting a dog ans considering a dobe.
Looking for some advice from people who have some experience. I work full-time (hence why i can afford to keep one), so would be utilising family members/friends and dog walkers to pop in during the day and take the dog for a quick walk etc.
A sticking point for me is i have read lots about dobes attaching to one person and needing a lot of socialising. I was just wondering how they were with dog walkers/other people taking them for walks? Would they be standoffish with walkers or friends?
0:57, yes, but what if your dog gets their everyday meal be eating their own poop? 😂
this is so good. try to balance the Nos with the Yes's . also when i give a No i try to show them a Yes. it helps them get what you want. he grabs a dishrag to play with you give a No. then I grab a toy and show them it and give a YES. it works
Hello I watched the video and it’s very insightful, I do have a question though, one of the tips was to put your hand in their food bowl when eating to stop them from getting possessive of their food, does this also work with toys, Vis a vis taking away a toy they’re playing with to stop them from getting to attached/possessive to their toys to stop aggression over it, I know that some children think that dog toys are their toys and they could get hurt over it,
Thanks😀
What do you when they show aggression when you use the hand in bowl?
Where can I get the small teepee tent?
”You don’t want your dog to think their name is no” 😆 I really want a Doberman and I’ve been doing a lot of research just to find out everyone says different things but mostly Sweden where I live have I lot of inbreeding. Also how do you trust a breeder? After all they’re salesmen and I’m a buyer...
What brand of baby wipes do you use for Arlo? Great video btw!!
We use a piece of Chamois leather for our Dobe! Comes up nice and shiny, and can be re-used.
Learned behavior, you say? Like saying "Kaiser....Arlo is on!" And him sitting in front of the TV? Lol
My red dobies name is kaiser that we rescued
@@charlesstraley9274 Nice of you!
I really feel sorry for my doberman who I got a month ago. My father brought him home with very little knowledge about the breed . We don't know how to it train him or provide any exercise. 😔😕
Honestly I'd look up some dog trainers on TH-cam. This channel will also be a lifesaver.
I have a question. I live in Canada and it snows a lot, and I mean a lot. Will they be able to stand the cold when I take them for walks?
The training before food works amazing, I’ve run out of stuff to have her do. 1 thing I have issues with is getting my Greta to act decent when around other people, she basically go nuts because she’s so excited. Any ideas?
Nice 5.0!
Tried the Vick thing where mine started chewing on our couch, she has stopped ever since 😂
Why does the internet say vicks may cause poisoning if ingested ? Is it true ?
If u don’t mind me asking, what breeder did u get arlo from?
Anyone know where to get Doberman in Australia Queensland
Arlo is gorgeous ♥️
what method did you use for taping his ears?
What was the kennel where you got your Doberman ?
For mine, hes definitely a fast eater, and they sell bowls now that are designed to make them eat slower.
Can i ask if it is possible to make a home for my doberman and keep him there or it would be bad for the dog ; i really want one but cannot keep him inside the house also i wanna thank you so much for your videos as they are addicting and soo much fun to watch
Chalk works to keep ants away because the chalk particles inhibit their ability to breath so they avoid it.
Make a huge square that's very thick and the bowls in the middle away from the chalk, hope I helped!
