Wasn't sure where to put this, but since it is doberman breed related, I guess it can go on this board. First of all, disclaimer, I am not asking this question because I'm choosing between getting a rottweiler and a doberman, I just want to find out more information to satisfy my curiosity...

Thank you everyone for your replies! Should I avoid getting a doberman or would it still be possible to live with one?

Yes, he is a puppy, but he doesn't bite much. At first I thought I had scratches from him jumping up on me, but I guess it could be his saliva.

Wasn't really sure where to post this, sorry if this is the wrong place. Is there such a thing as breed-specific allergies? My friend had a doberman and whenever I played with him, I would get a rash on my arms. There was no sneezing or watery eyes unless I spent several hours with him in a...

So my friend has a doberman, he's almost one and she told me that he attacked her. Here's what she told me: We were running around the park tennis courts playing around. It was me and my sister who were running around. So we run behind the net and in front of it away from him. So finally he...

I like the flirt pole idea. Wonder why I never heard of it...

Hello everyone! My friend has a doberman, he's almost one, I think. He is very energetic and me and her were trying to come up with a way to exercise him. He doesn't behave very well on leash, so running with him isn't an option. His recall is pretty good, but he still gets distracted sometimes...

Wow thank you everyone for your input, very educational XD

Oh it's alright I might still email her again after the nationals are over. And I'm sorry to hear that it happened to you.

So I got two questions. One is about word commands. I'm considering teaching my future dog in a different language, partly because I want to strengthen my knowledge of the language and also just because it seems fun. I know the dog will have no problem with it, but what if I decided to compete...

I thought that might have been the reason. Oh well :( Has that happened to you?

Hello everyone! I was wondering if any of you had any personal experience with Eve Auch. I have read a lot of good things about her and her dobermans. I obtained her email and we emailed each other for a bit back in August, she was very helpful. I voiced my desire to meet her and see her...

First of all, I never said anything about sports, and none of us are really big on after school activities. I'm in college, mostly online classes, so I'm home most of the time. One of my parents is also home every day either my mom or my dad. I think that's enough people and time for...

I'll keep your advice in mind though it won't be applicable to our first meeting since it will be at a show. What is WZ though? I know to watch out for Z or X factor cause that means white dobe, but I've never heard of WZ before

Also, I am meeting with a breeder this week at a show. We've been emailing each other a bit, so I found out all the basic information like whether she has euro or American dobes, which sports she shows them in, how often she breeds, info about raising and caring for puppies, health, etc. I'm...
