I have always owned German Shepherd dogs. I would’ve never thought in a million years I would be sitting here watching your videos right next to my five year old male rescue Doberman. He is the most easy-going dog I have ever met in my life. I did not have small children, but if I did, I would not have any issues whatsoever allowing this dog around my children. He is a Velcro dog and I’ve never had a dog that really and truly wanted to be around me as much as he does. Unlike my German shepherds, he is a dream come true on a leash. He is so unfazed by any passing dogs or animals. He walks so proudly on the leash with his head held high. He is so chill, and I absolutely cannot believe anyone would abandon this amazing dog. I’m so blessed he came into my life. Seriously, I can’t believe he’s my dog!
Perfect that this came now when I'm in the starting pits to buy a Dobermann after my beloved middle Pinscher has left earthly life ❤️
good luck my friend...could of, would of, should of bought a dobe...bought instead a lab due to popularity and my kids and i have had two dobes in the past...they are all good dogs: labs, GSD, dobes...i know you will find the perfect dobe...
The most important thing I now consider when thinking about getting another doberman is health. I can adapt to higher energy, either sex etc. My next dobe will be a male American/European mix that is show quality. Black and Rust appeals the most to me. Unless my female expires before my male. I'll always have 2 opposite sex. Until the day I die no matter my age. When I get too old to train I'll go the adult adoption route. My first one was 16 months old rescue. He was fabulous!! Ohhhh but the joy of raising that pup is work that made my bond deeper than theirs I'm sure.
Over the years we’ve adopted a male Blue puppy who lived to nearly 11 and currently have a male Rust we rescued at age 2. He’s now nearly 14! Amazing dogs!
Our first Doberman was an American show/pet. She was very reserved and calm. She did have the Doberman protection. There were several occasions where she went into DobieMode, as we called, she saved me from a stranger who came to our door and wanted to come in. She was having nothing to do with the guy even getting on the porch! I was so glad to have her. She was 14 when she passed. We currently have a 2 year old European male working dog. He is so full of energy and wants to play 24/7. People often ask which we preferred, all I can say they both are Dobermans with their own personalities.
Having raised Doberman puppies all my life, last year I adopted an adult male from a Doberman rescue. It was a no brainer for me, because I've slowed down and no longer have the farm and the acreage for a puppy to grow up with, and getting a 6+ year old was great for me. Because I'm very familiar with the breed, the medical issues he came with were not a deterrent as I've dealt with them before. One of the things you mentioned about not knowing the history is spot on. I discovered my dog doesn't like large groups of people, and he wants to make snacks out of little dogs, but he's great with my indoor cats. You really will find out things like this on your own usually, after you leave the shelter, so be prepared. Other than that, I won't be purchasing puppies to raise anymore. I will give a good home to seniors who like living with seniors now. 😀
For someone like you with lots of experience with the breed, do you recommend any supplement for their heart ? I will be getting my first Dobe at the end of the year and plan to follow John's training videos.
Yes, great tip for others to read what you said about finding out their quirks, likes, and dislikes after the fact. Kudos to you for adopting older Dobies, Sandy!
I'm about to get one finally after years of wanting one, so this is great timing, thanks!
These doberman planet videos are the best.
I have been sponging up ALL your videos. THANK YOU! We're getting Rambo (black/light rust) in 4 weeks just off of our summer vacation. He'll be about 10wks old. Puppy prepping now. He's a registered pet European American hybrid. The dad is European American 120lbs and mom is American 85lbs. Rambo is the biggest male in the litter. We're super excited to have him join our family. He'll be an indoor/outdoor dog. We live in the country so he'll get plenty of exercise in our fenced 1 acre area around the house. Our kids are both teenagers and we have two indoor cats. My parents bread and trained Dobermans when I was very young. They're really excited for us.
Male, German, Black/rust, puppy. I have 30+ years of Dobe experience. They’re the absolute BEST!!
Hi Lori, I am on a breeder list for Euro Doby Male puppy black and rust. I never had a Doberman before but i had dogs for over 20 years. The doberman will be my first strong breed I should say, I am a little nervous on how I will be able to handle the dog but I plan to follow John's videos from the start so hopefully I will succeed. Also I am a very active 5.3 woman who trained her own horses to do tricks.
@@bisou7856 Very cool! You will be just fine, don’t be nervous at all. Starting with a puppy, building that bond and trust, will be the most rewarding experience you ever had with a dog. I’ve been around horses and if you can handle/train them, you’ll have NO problems with your Dobie! I’m excited for you!!❤️🐾
@@loriw2661 Thank you so much for responding, I am also hoping to meet other Doberman owners in my area of Northern VA when the time comes as I know sometimes there are group of owner that get together with their dogs, just not sure if it is a thing with Doberman and their people. Do you use any health supplements for hearts and joints too ? I've seen some online that are specifically for Dobermans.
@@bisou7856 I don’t use anything on my own. I have the heart check done along with bloodwork. If my vet recommends using supplements or anything else, then I’ll use them. At 2 years old you can X-ray their hips (usually done for OFA cert) to make sure their ball/socket is healthy.
@@loriw2661 thank you.
European, Show, Female Black and Tan, Puppy. Strong believer in letting the puppy choose you, though when you meet the litter. ❤ 🇬🇧
My doberman Heidi is an American female. Her and I have a strong bond with each other. She came to our ranch a year ago and she was in bad shape. She didn't trust nobody because she was seriously abused by her previous owner and it took me two weeks to earn her trust. But now she's just a big baby. And a house dog to boot.
I have been a foster home for our local doberman rescue group for 25 years. I love the effort you put into this video! Have been blessed to foster and "foster fail" with several dobes from both American and European lines, you have done great research identifying valid points of consideration. One of my biggest frustrations with potential adopters is their unwillingness to do thorough research before deciding to adopt. Thank you for your beautiful channel and the amazing effort you put into educating the masses about this amazing breed!
Thank you, Tracey! It's so important to us to help people be well-informed about the different types of Dobies out there. Thank you for all your hard work being a foster home for Dobermans in need!
I would have the same doberman as you, only female! Because of our cats we need a puppy. Our beloved Lady passed four months short of her 12th birthday, a year ago April 29th. So we are now at a stage in our grief where we can move on to our next doberman. Wish us luck! This was an awesome and informative video. Thank you so much!
I wish I would have known this earlier. I've had 7 American Dobies over 50yrs, having more than one at a time. I didn't ask when I bought my current puppy and he's an Euro. So different from the others.
I have a melanistic blue, and we have bred her to a melanisric fawn. We got a melanistic red girl that I'm keeping.
I am having a Doberman puppy in 2 months. These videos are a big help.
My first Doberman was a male black&rust European one; the best dog I’ve ever had❣️🥰 Energetic but relaxed and peaceful and very sweet, ‘velcro’ and protective of me. The female black&rust European is something else…very smart, energetic and athletic and superprotective of me and the house but not as cuddly and relaxed as the male one. She learns very fast but also has more a will of her own, she’s a dominant creature but respects what you want from her. To my opinion it’s very important to be consequent in what is allowed and what is not, especially with dogs like Doberman’s. She’s a great dog to travel with because she loves to be in the car, as long as she can accompany me she’ll go anywhere 😁
Loved this video because it’s a perfect guide to chose the right Doberman for you 😊
I ended up with two male unfix black and red European dobermanns, more work could be added to my life!!❤
We had dobermans since i was like 6. All "working" type european ones. All were really cool with kids, even stranger ones. All protection trained but they "knew" when stranger was ok or not. So they didnt mind petting from kids from nearby school when we were going out with him. One was winning awards on contests , but they banned ones with cropped ears later.
Our last one just celebrated 13th birthday yesterday. And all considered exept some age related issues, he can still walk and is happy. ( half of his siblings are alive too, good line i guess).
When i get my own dog, dobie is sure choice. Once you get over puberty. I loved goofy, sometimes acting dumb but they were not, pragmatic dogs. Only thing (cant be mad) couldnt even go to bathroom alone. But you would look at them and seen the love they have.
I love our 2 Euro Dobies, one female blk/rust and the other female red/rust. Our red/rust was given back to the breeder because they mentioned their daughter was allergic to her. I did love that I didn't have to go through the ears stage again but she did have trust issues which extra love and training classes couldn't handle.
I chose the original black and rust male puppy but I chose European Doberman because I live alone but I'm very active and I just purchased a Euro Dobie puppy which I am picking up tomorrow
If I could choose and have one it would be:
American
Female
Adult
Black and Rust
Reason being I’m over 50, living alone and it would be a great friend, protector, and I could do agility with it.
Great episode; mush needed. Big fan of your show/channel so... as always, THANK YOU!
It's another brilliant video. Thank you, John. for all the information.
Awesome, Cathy! So glad you enjoyed this video!
I’ve got my fawn Doberman jojo! The first year was difficult but I Don’t regret all the training we went through. It’s worth it!
Jojo is a fun name! So glad you and her have bonded well and training has gone well!
My current Doberman pet/show female black and rust . I take her pheasant hunting she’s great with strangers and she loves retrieving down birds.
Well John this a wonderful video to support newbies to the Doberman breed. When it comes to choose working line vs pet/show line Dobermans you did not mention a specific characteristic with working line Dobermans. They not only have more drive and need more exercise or oppertunities for workout. What is really hard: they are 24/7 on guard, significantly more than pet or show line Dobermans. These Dobermans check and sense everything, everywhere and constantly. And if you not be aware of them they make their own decisions which are based on their breeding prupose being a personal guard dog.
So when you leave your homestead, property or flat you have to have a closer look on your dog. Working line Dobermans doing their job constantly, but you have to do your job as well - to supervise the dog in the same way. Believe me that's gona be hard sometimes.
Really interesting!
I currently have 2 European black/rust female dobermans. 1 was an adult rescue and the other a puppy when I got them. My very first doberman was a blue doberman. She was an adult rescue. She had lots of skin issues the older she got. Hair loss and lots of skin tags/wart like growths. Also her skin was always very oily. She wasn't itchy and I don't think the issues bothered her, but they weren't the prettiest thing. I talked to so many vets about it and noone seemed to know why or what to do about it. (That was 20 years ago) there's so much more information available now. This channel being a great resource for all the doberman questions or concerns you may have! Thank You Doberman Planet and John! Keep up the amazing work! ❤❤
I have had one before and I chose one like your choosing.
I have two red and rust Dobermans. My girl is almost 7 and she is from a show line. Just me and my husband living in the home, but my daughter and grandson live close and are over all the time. Ziva is close to all of us, but I am her person. My male, Tony, will be 5 at the end of the year. His sire is American/ Chilean lines, his dam Chilean. His looks and temperament run right down the European lines, and he is typical male with the love and goofiness for all family members. He loves my 1 yo grandson, but as with my female, I am his person, also. Probably because I do the training and the feeding. Love them bunches! 😊
First off i love watching your videos on Dobermans ,I found a great breeder that have American and European Dobermans, my puppy a ( female) mother is a American dobbie the dad is European dobbie I think i got the best of both worlds.
This is very helpful! I am about to move out of my apartment and into a house with a backyard! So at some point in the near future I will be looking for a Dobie rescue. Thanks for the info on Ollie, as well!
Thank you for this great video.American show-line male puppy in brown/rust is for my lifestyle the best option ❤
Have two Doberman ‘s European as live in the uk. My boy is chocolate and weighs 33kg, very sensitive, tuned into both myself and husband. But when out walking he is very much my protector, as very uncertain when men come along path towards me. Protective. My female is Black and Tan, she is 42kg and a very happy dog, friendly with everyone, but very mischievous.
Such a great and informative video. Thanks, DP! Mine would be the same as yours, except I'd go for an adult instead of a puppy.
I got my American Dobbie Josie when she was 2 years old (amazingly she bonded the same year I got her, to scared away a wild doe that approached us). She's now 4, but one time I had to got to the hospital for 2 days & according to my family she cried for me the whole time. When I got home she jumped me.😂 (She's the bigger than normal Doberman in my icon)😊 She's a great guard dog to my family, but also a great emotional & medical support dog to me
1.5 yr old European red & rust male Baloo, was wedding gift from breeder amazing animal,taught to hunt truffles hahaha welcoming our first child in august his demeanor change has been amazing to watch so protective of momma and the baby in oven.. but so gentle when kisses her via moms belly ❤❤
fantastic!!!!!!!!!...where did you find the breeder?...thx
@@sherrcon I’m located in Southern California so is the breeder, looking to breed him soon just looking for red and rust female, I don’t want to breed back to black and tan he comes from 2 litter lines of only red and rust Dobermans
My first Doberman Katyusha= black&rust, pet line, American/ Euro hybrid female and puppy.
My second Doberman Zastava = red&rust, pet line, 100%Euro also female and puppy. I didn't want 2 black&rust so they are easier to tell apart at a distance.
listening and watching your videos, makes me want and get a dobe...but, but, but...lol...thanks for the vid...thumbs up all the way!!
Black and rust, working line, European female. Getting into protection training. Amazing dog. Even better friend.
How wonderful! She sounds like the perfect companion!
@DobermanPlanet Yes! Helping me out of depression, getting me in shape, we're being social together. She's my therapist. I just pay the bill. Pay it with time, love, stimulation and food. Thanks for all the information. Your videos were a big part of my research. Hats off to you, sir.
I use Ollie as well but chose it without seeing your review 😊
I currently have my 9th and 10th Dobermans and your descriptions were totally in linenwith my experiences-havebhad a close bond with all of them but have joked that some of my females weren't just velcro dogs-they wanted to live inside my skin 😂-my males were much more tolerant of new puppy when one joined tho all were bonded to the other dog and to me-omly negative for me is they don't have as long a life as i wish but the happiness they brought far outweighed the pain of loss tho not immediately
I had excellent experience with my blk/tan American female pet Dobie. Will definitely get that again. She was good with the entire family, especially the little kids, but was decidedly my girl. I'm hoping to train the new dog as my PTSD service dog, and we have a farm, now, so definitely a puppy to ensure socialization with both people and animals.
Your girl sounds like she was such a great companion! No doubt your new dog will love living on the farm with you!
European, Black & Tan, female.
I'd like to rescue again. I had such a great experience with Kleo, I'd like to do it again while I can.
Great video with great info, for me it would be American, male, adult (rescue, already looked at a couple), pet/show lines and either black/rust or red/rust with the former leading the way.
Great video. We currently have a black and rust female and a red and rust male (both American), but I would love to have another fawn male. We have had two in the past and they were both such awesome and gorgeous dogs, but were often mistaken for Weimeriners when we took them out in public.
European, show, female, black and tan and puppy.
It's almost exactly what I have, except her mother is a show line and her father a working line. I thought she was calm and took after her mother, but after having a reunion at about 18 months old I know for sure she takes more after her dad 😂 she was more active than most of her siblings and more confident in a way. I think I just got used to her energy levels.
Great video, John! I think you made a lot of good points to help people choose the right Doberman for their lifestyle. I've had European Dobermans and an American European Hybrid in the past. Currently, I own a 2.5 years old black & rust male European working line Doberman. He is an amazing dog, but only because I put the work in (and still do every day). Very high drive, and he needs his 2-4 hours training and exercise every day. If, for whatever reason, it might be a little less, you immediately know it😅. We are training for IGP titles.
Oh fun! Training for IGP titles is no joke! Kudos to you both - he sounds like an amazing dog!
This was a great video! We love our Red and Rust doberman. Luckily, we chose the right dog for our family from Doberman of the Triad rescue organization. Our next doberman would be black and rust, European, male, puppy working dog. We are an active family, and enjoy training and working with our dog
Great Video as always! Have you or anyone you know had experience with a Doberman cross before? If so what would be the best cross? Thank you!
Our beautiful girl is an American Doberman mix but I don’t know if she’s working or show as she’s adopted. If you looked at her, you’d never know she wasn’t a full Doberman aside from her size. Though she’s about to turn 2 years old, she looks like a six month old puppy.
This video was perfect timing, thank you so much!! 😄🩷
Just some FYI on the white for those who don't know. They are very interbred as when they first appeared, the owners continued using their few white ones to bred more white ones. Thus, of course, prone to health issues, as you noted.
Impartial! Great video as always. Definitely a black/rust female adult, pet/show line.
Thank you, Caroline! Love this positive feedback!
The one with natural ears and tail !
I have a blue! He is beautiful, dobieshark!
Oooo fun color!
My choice is similar to use. My experience with male and female Dobermans is a little different than what you described. As you mention every Doberman is unique. My female, Ember, is very friendly and doesn’t know a stranger, while my male is more reserved and watches. He is friendly once he gets to know you.
Really look forward to your videos to read. My first Dobey must’ve been a European type and was 146 lbs. and very nimble as she went straight up a ladder step to ride with my dad in the tractor any time all day. Our other Dobeys were American being more sleek and smaller and black and rust up until two years ago and males. Now I have Tootsie who is red and rust female who I feel is more playful but is more willing to use her mouth to keep an upper hand in play. She also is more caring of an owner in she notices any new thing that wasn’t around prior and check it out in minutes. If you have a cut or scab she will be your nurse checking it out ,licking it, trying to remove the scab anything to get it to normal. She also has more drive to play oftener, be more willing to protect but not get into a fight and more like a cat as when you told her no she will rub her whole body on your leg as if to say I’m sorry I love you. 😊All my Dobeys made believers out of you when you came home in the pitch dark and put up a fit until they heard your voice to identify you and stop barking. You had to assure them you belonged there which I really appreciated about them. A very protective breed of children as I’ve seen parents scold a child for discipline and the dog give the grown up a little growl barely able to hear.❤
I have 4 ( 2 black, 1 red, 1 albino white ) all American 2 male 2 female
Hey John, loved the video, seeing Remy's footage made my day. I can honestly say Remy and Baxter are completely different dogs absolutely. Both with their own unique amazing qualities, although very much align with everything you stated. Here's what I would possibly add to your pick doberman card. How long are you wanting to wait to adopt and how much are you willing to spend? I say this because three weeks ago we almost got a third european black and rust male from the same breeder as Remy because one of their adopters had to back out and wanted to know if I wanted Remys brother. But since these dogs are in such high demand the prices are way up there to adopt especially from a tested bloodline. So we decided to stick with the two.
I had a blue female. Her coat was a beautiful purple/grey hue when she was a pup. As she aged,her coated thinned and had a lot of skin issues. I now have a 4 year old female black and rust that has a beautiful coat and no skin issues.
I like a black ack & rust, European working class Dobi male. When I was a teen I had one. He lived to 13 yrs.. He was a great. I am undecided weather I should get a male or female 🤔.
I love black and rust European Doberman
Genetic lines are critical. In Southwest Florida are there any breeds of show dobermans or pet dobermans? Well rounded pet would be my choice. Thank you for the info. Your channel is the best.
That's how it was. My life was absolutely perfect. My Dobie was my soul dog - she was perfect. I miss her so much. Things aren't perfect anymore - very far from it.
American, Male, Black and Tan, Pet, Adult.
We adopted a Red/Rust 2 year old male 2 months ago. Based on his looks he is American and definitely acts like pet. His Embark DNA puts him at 100% Doberman back to the great-grandparents. And boy are we dealing with the skin struggles. Wish I had know about the lack of skin issues with the black coats. 🙂
I have 2 Americans and 1 European. It’s interesting to see how their personalities are different and yes they are very different - Americans are silly and European is serious and more reserved. My Americans are hyper.
American/European Melanated !
I have red dobermans male and female.
Ooo fun!! One of each!
Im going to be looking for a replacement service dog and had the same results as you but for different reasons.
This was informative for sure, before this I was looking at European but now realize that may not be a good fit for me
I live in Sweden and will go for your choice if I find a breeder here ❤
I have a American/European one year old female. She is my best friend we spend a lot of time out of the house either walking or going to the park to play. She is kind of shy around new people but she does quite well at the same time with them. I have people coming in and out of my home often because I work from home. I would get another doberman in a heartbeat if I had the room and money to do so.
I have an American male black n rust pet or show puppy I got at 8 weeks old. He is a brat and a sweetheart at the same time.
I have a very big 4yr old male purebred hybrid.
I have a female purebred European puppy.
& I have a 1yr old female American that I rescued.
All are black & rust.
Sounds like a great variety, Erik!!
I live in Puerto Rico and was given a doberman / Australian Shepherd female puppy. She is now 5 years old and looks a lot like her doberman mom. We chose not to trim her ears nor tail since she's a mix.
I'm in the waiting to go pick up my new puppy stage . I got a red and rust , male euro American
Quick question: after your video about the american/european mix wich has better life expectancy, would you take it into consideration?
From New Jersey and was wondering if you know a reputable breeder in the area?
Puppy, American, female, pet line, black and rust.
I have been watching almost every video you've made on Dobermans as they are my favorite dog breed have always wanted one. I feel for the most part I have all the same marked except when it comes to color I love all of them so my thing is if I can find a reputable breeder in my area I don't mind any of the colors some of it may factor in cost as some costs less like pure black doberman or rust or Gray those tend to be less amount. Pure Black or melanistic maybe my go to or black and tan if had to choose. Is there any under lining issues health wise with a pure Black doberman?
Euro/American mix. They tend to last a tad longer.
Hybrid Euro/American male. Looking to train as a service dog. Not sure if the working line or show line is better.
I have had both. you cannot go wrong with either. I do have a question however. My European, Jagger is eight years old. I would like to get a puppy. However I would not want to upset him. Is a puppy at his age a good idea, or should i wait?
Can you recommend a breeder in Southwest Florida? I want a calm female .
The 1st one is better
💖
We have a,European brown & rust. He is, as you have described for the European, not sure, if he's show or working. I would like to a gene test. I think I would go for an American next time, maybe a show line, female.
Go a different route next time to see what the differences are? Not a bad idea!
American, pet, puppy, red, male.
Nice!
anyone looking for a white pup? had one in a litter in tennessee would like to see it go to a cooler less sunny state
Where can I find a pet or show doberman that's not a puppy?
Never an American Dobermann for me and white version also never for me because banned from FCI and EU Dobermann version is also a famely dog I can now it because 40 years back I owned two Dobermann Pinchers here in the Netherlands !🤠
Everything matches yours except I would probably get an adult. This is my second marriage and neither husband has ever wanted a Doby. So it would be my first as well. And I think he would be easier to convince if he could see the personally already there, plus knowing he wouldn't be the one having to deal with the puppy training (piddles). Since I'm the one gone for 12 hours at night then trying to sleep all day.
Sounds like a bad time to add a high drive Velcro dog, sadly. Especially if your hubby doesn't want one, AND will have to care for it the majority of the time.
Ya I know. Plus right now we already have 3 dogs. So I wouldn't even consider it until we are down to not more than one left probably none thou. But I can always dream. Right now we have a mal-heeler mix. And her son is that and half cessie plus a beagle.
In another of your videos you discussed adult dobermans not adapting/accepting new owners because of strong loyalty. Is this a common difficulty in adopting adult dobermans from rescue groups?
No, Dobermans are very smart. When they are in a kennel for weeks or months on end with no individualized attention, they are typically very thankful to the person who rescues them, plays with them, and spends time with them.
8:30 There's no way i could pick up my guy like that.
Was he fully grown?
I would love to adopt an American black female, a puppy. I would love to do pet therapy with her. ♥️
Wouldnt the owners of a resque doberman know the genetics?
Female, possible adult (I'm an older woman with neuropathy) American, pet, blk or red/rust.
So glad you've found your perfect fit!
@@DobermanPlanetI hope to, one day! I was researching Dobies when a wonderful mixed Australian Cattle dog followed us a half mile to our home a year and a half ago, on my husband's birthday! Dumped, cold, starving, he has been our house dog ever since and is the most wonderful dog I've ever had! We have a blind, 18 y.o. Basenji and hasn't much longer so Angelo has been a gift. Perhaps, God willing, we'll be able to get a Dobie in the future.❤ I love your channel!
Does this video mean you are getting a second doberman?
