Thanks!
He's 85ish pounds and 27"ish inches tall. Haven't taken measurements in the last month. To me he seems taller than the 26" I last measured and last weighed was 85. To me doesn't look like he's gained much weight this last month but hard to tell when you see them 24x7 less sleep.
 
I'm estimating 95-100lbs and 28" tall. Probably too big for UKC but within FCI - at least I hope he stays within FCI
 
Cooper had his first herding lesson today. Cooper is seven, is retired from Obedience and has DCM. I want him to do things he enjoys and if he likes herding, that's what we'll do. He loves lure coursing and he has natural herding talent. He knows he's being left behind when we take Anna and Sabrina to shows, so now he's back in the game and is happy again.

The lesson consisted of doing obedience around sheep. While he was looking at the sheep in the pen, I'd tell him DOWN, SIT, STAND and FRONT to get him used to doing commands while in the vicinity of sheep. Those are herding functions because the dog has to stop and stand if he's pressing the sheep too hard or to block the sheep.

Cooper moving around the pen. Five sheep are outside the pen hiding on the other side of the pen, so I kept him on a longe line to keep him under control.

Looks like it could be to me if you want to submit it in the all Doberman one.

Wow that's a big pine cone compared to ours. Albert looks like he has one of those fake sets of teeth here. :D

Those of you who do not walk your Dobe much on hard surfaces and let them pull like the maniac they are won't recognize this. (never mind the fibers from our wool rug that apparently will keep shedding throughout its lifetime)

They get 'shredded' because his rough nails are catching on it. He needs a nail file. :D
I grind them with the dremel tool. I actually think they'd get shredded like that no matter how smoothly they were filed. It's the sheer force! That's what's significant about it to me.:)
