Our doberman will be 10 months old in two days and he's quickly becoming one of the best dogs we've ever owner, not to say that raising him hasn't been work and thankfully both me and my wife are retired as I couldn't see this going so well if we both were still working. He's taught us to be patient and understanding and he gets us up a lot and thats a good thing, I've walked more and played more in these past 8 months with Brody than I've probably done in the last 10 years total. He's our buddy for sure and full of love and gives the best, I mean the very very best damn hugs you'll ever get from a dog and maybe even humans. We sure love our doberman and thanks for sharing yours with us.
Beautiful doberman ! I've been wanting one for ever since I could remember , my dad had a couple and they had so many puppies and I know how much my dad loved all of them and they were friendly even with me and my siblings when we were babies. Everytime I watch a video about them I get so emotional because it clicks back to my dad. Hopefully I can get one in the future.
I have a doberman. She just turned 1 and I had her since she was 8 weeks. I am absolutely obsessed with her and shes loves me back. We are always together. She is strong, smart and affectionate.
I had many breeds in my life and it was the Dobe I wanted again. Yes they are one of the smartest breeds around. Very easy to train and they're willing to please. One of the most funniest breeds I ever had.They're very strong,high endurance and definitely protective of their family. Awesome with kids where they think that they are their own. Being an owner of two at one time,which has been a vacancy in my life for the past years which I miss dearly. As a new job I had started a few years ago brought me on the road of travels, where it has put me on hold of owning another Dobe. Enjoy! and thx! for the memory of having a Doberman.
I've had 2, and they both were amazing and loving and protective. I wish I could have another, but I'm 68 and have heath issues, so I would be unable to give them the exercise they need! I've never had a more wonderful dog!
The only problem with a Doberman is they bond so much to you your whole life ends up being about them and you have anxiety worrying about what life will be like without your best friend .in other words the attachment and closeness you build with them is almost too powerful. But I would never choose any other dog nothing in my opinion comes even close
Oh, so true. I have always have had a dog. Then my first dobe 17 years ago. The loss of that dog broke me like no other pets loss. I now have 2 and can't imagine life without at least one.
I totally agree. Have had dobies close to 45 years. Each one has taken a large chunk of my heart with them. (Don't know how how long a heart can last) :) :)
I lost my MoMo to wobblers syndrome last fall she was 6 and the sweetest dog I’ve ever had I miss her everyday she would sleep with her head on my chest almost every night until she could no longer get up. They are one of the greatest breeds.
yes, i've had 3 dobermans and at around age 8 their brain gets bigger than their skull and they attacked my children who they grew up with. My daughter had a large scar down her face and it looked hideous. She commit suicide at age 19. Sad.
Main line Animal Rescue/shelter of PA has a Doberman 5 years named Champagne. Save of Princeton NJ/Skillman NJ often takes large dogs from a shelter in Tennessee that has not the funds for many large dogs. Thank you for the contact
The way you described Raven... i felt like you were describing my dog! Champ was 10months old when i got him and he wasn’t taken care of that well before... he is almost 5 now... i love him more than anything
Just sitting here on my bed drinking coffee and watching this video. I'm accompanied by my 2 dobermans. They follow me everywhere. I used to have a doberman named Raven. She was such a beautiful girl but she became very ill and sadly I had to put her down. I will always remember her.
If you select a Doberman to be a member of your family.He or She will be the most faithful, reliable and truly loving member of your family.The only things they require from you is love,attention, a home,food and water, and they will give you pure love every minute of their lives.
Great dog, great looking dog, lots of compliments from passerby on walks. Keep in mind if getting one that they have lots of energy, are extremely rambunctious, love to play, love to jump on people and will show food and toy aggression at a young age. Did I mention lots of energy? They are extremely smart and will take to training easily. We have a seven month old that we've had since a small pup, he is awesome but a TON of work, be prepared if you're considering getting one.
Hi, Raven ♥ I've loved and known 3 Dobies in my life ~ Brigadier, Duchess and Contessa. They are SO educable with proper socialization, training, tons of love and exercise~ they SO want to please. I have so many happy, funny stories ;)
Most people don't think of the Doberman when they think of hunting dogs but let me tell you, they can hunt. I have a raccoon problem around my property. My dobe absolutely lives to solve that problem. he'll wake me up at 2 in the morning or whatever to tell me we need to go outside and hunt so I'll put some shoes on and grab my trusty Ruger .22 pistol and head outside and he'll typically have a raccoon treed in less than a minute. I think he initially detects them from inside the house actually. He'll go to the base of the tree and start jumping up and down and barking like he was a black and tan coon hound. Sometimes the foliage is too thick to see them and I think he's full of shit after 5-10 minutes of looking up in the tree but he won't let up so I keep looking and sure enough, there it is. Thing is though, when I drop it out of the tree, he won't put his teeth on it. He doesn't want to kill it, he just wants to find it for me. He hunts smart too. He'll give a single bark and then come to a dead stop and listen for one to move in response. And then he's right on them.
I can take mine anywhere and he can handle it. Just so smart. Before we go to bed, he will search the house for his blanket before he jumps onto our bed. It's so funny to see this big tough dog trotting around the house with this blankey haha! He carries it everywhere he goes. If he gets a new toy he will take that to bed with him. Like a child. It's amazing the intelligence of these dogs.
I currently have a miniature pinscher and I am considering getting a doberman pinscher. Thanks for all the info. Anyone have any extra info I should know before getting one?
Everyone have their preferences. In the end one thing is common among all breeds. They are dogs. They are man's best friend. Been so for the last 30,000 years. There are no bad breeds. Only bad owners. The difference lies in what suits you? Based on looks, temperament, trainability, purpose of ownership, time and effort you can invest on your pet etc.
I ended up raising. One of the most stubborn breeds. The husky. I always wanted one of these. Maybe one day. For now I'm I am very content with my little baby 😁
Carlos Antunez I am debating whether to get a Doberman, rottweiler or a giant schnauzer. Although I love Rottweilers I think I would either get a Doberman or a giant schnauzer as Rottweilers have many health problems and have short lifespans.
You can't breed discriminate, it's being rediculous. It's like human racism and stereotyping. Dobermabs are a great natural guard dog. I've seen them protection trained first hand then in the same note they go home to their families and play with the kids.
Every one in my family wants a Doberman except for my dad, he said if we get one he will divorce my mom and leave us but I think it's worth getting a Doberman
@@LifeTheBasicManual about intelligence, eager to please and guard skills Doberman. However RR is a great guard dog as well and I believe is more chill inside home and in my opinion more healthy.
@@LifeTheBasicManual you that have both, which one you like the most? I have a miniature schnauzer and want a guard dog so im unsure about doberman, RR or Giant Schnauzer, i also need that new member to be nice with my MS.
Nice video.Can anyone give me a reputable breeder in the us for American and European Dobermans. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Looking for a puppy that’s health tested and temperament tested.
You are lucky to have a nice Doberman, I heard a lady was bitten by Doberman and the dog's canine teeth went through her chin ouch that is hurt !!! For people who wish to get one , Please don't have this dog if you can't handle it!
It is more about being seriously dedicated to training it than being able to wrestle it. They are one of the most intelligent animals out there. Try to be equally as smart and train it. That is 99.9% of a "bad" dog's problem. Lazy owners.
CONGRATULATIONS! I'd suggest you get yourself a trainer immediately! Dobies are too smart for their own good, and need a strong pack leader. There is a phase at where they go through "the terrible twos" which is why constant training is advised. They start acting like toddlers, and "forget" their training! But a well-trained Dobie is a PLEASURE to live with.
MARK SUTTON It has happened. but the only time it happens is when you get a Doberman from a bad breeder and you raise the Doberman wrong. mostly caused by lack of socialization. you have to socialize the dog and also give the dog something to do so it doesn't get bored and become destructive or aggressive.
Anyone who believes brain myths and such is Falling for failure. My first dobie was a concern because of this. I took her to the vet at 6 months and asked him was it a wise choice of a dog with 4 small children?. He replied, you couldn't ask for a better dog next to a lab or shepherd. And he was right!! Unfortunately after 8 years she subcomb to lymphoma smh
I think from your Video you should help Vets with Dobermans as service dogs. You Clearly have the cash, and shared it with us on TH-cam. There is a lot of Vet programs that place dogs with Vets that are in need. Would you be willing to help?
Its a nervy dog and very defensive. had them my WHOLE life. have had 4 of them. lets face it the Doberman was bread out a LONG time ago. now were simply left with nervous nelly show ring dogs! such a shame. I loved all my Dobermans but to be honest my Malinios is 10x better!
It's gotta be YOUR energy. Yes, they are an exuberant breed, but really prefer a good couch to a good run! Their breeding lines are meticulously recorded, and have one of the cleanest breeding lines. Malinious have injured more people than Dobermans. Look it up.
Our doberman will be 10 months old in two days and he's quickly becoming one of the best dogs we've ever owner, not to say that raising him hasn't been work and thankfully both me and my wife are retired as I couldn't see this going so well if we both were still working.

loool . it is true ... but only in one particular country ... called stupidland .
Lol!!
Great job, so many excellent Dobermans are in shelters by passed by people not informed properly on this majestic dog
Where is a Doberman in a shelter? I have my second Dobe right now and have never seen one in a shelter. I'd take it in an instant.
Main line animal rescue, her name is Champagne they also have other great large breeds. Location 1149 Pike Spring Road

LOOOVE dobes, I am getting one soon actually :D
How is it?
dddddangel sameee
Same Here, Mate...

Beautiful dog!
I worship the dobie
Is it a good idea to take a doberman when we are a first time dog owner ?
Sorry for the eventuals mistakes, I'm french
I currently have a miniature pinscher and I am considering getting a doberman pinscher. Thanks for all the info. Anyone have any extra info I should know before getting one?

Wise words Ali!
Sorry but Dobermans are in a different class altogether.
How do you score it if you abandon your golf ball due to doberman? Is there a penalty, where do you place your new ball?
its not in the rule book? if it should be.
i love mine so much, could never have a different breed. they are so intelligent,loyal,loving but also can be such doodoo heads haha
My dog is the same way with the door bell. Even if there's a door bell that rings on TV.
love that breed. I live in houston tx. Do you know where i can get one?
Sorry Binh ho, we don't - worth contacting whoever is the breeder's association covering your area?
I ended up raising. One of the most stubborn breeds. The husky. I always wanted one of these. Maybe one day. For now I'm I am very content with my little baby 😁
Better than Pinkertons to keep your workforce in line. Thank you for your time majesty.
something so creative about this video I like it
Thank you Lina!
We Love our Doberman !
I too have a ridgeback and looking for a doberman!
I have always been so frightened of Dobermans. They look so beautiful and scary at the same time.
They can be nervy
I used to feel the same way until I had 2. They are awesome, but loyal and protective! They were both wonderful around babies and children!
Marble floors are nice 👌
Smart, easy to care for, very loving, very loyal, Dobermans truly are amazing animals. It's too bad they've gotten a bad rap.
so true!
I have one too!
Love mine very smart easy to train.
I thinking of getting a Dobie or vizsla
Get a Dobie
Do Dobies get along well with cats?
Jim F yes. they can be very accepting of other animals. especially when they are introduced to them at a early age.
I got a cat when my Vinnie was about 4 months old. He loves cats, whether stray or domesticated even though they don't always like him lol
not really. Their brain keeps growing inside their shrinking skull and the eat cats and kill elephants! It's really a sad thing...
Jim F yes
Are Doberman good with other dogs?

Better off owning a shepherd
