Lol thank you! That's his little, big sister, Mirage Yes! We just started health testing since he's at that age. A local show in May will have our local dobe club so they'll perform a WAE, so he'll have a busy weekend with his first hip and elbow exams, the WAE and the CAT and/or FAST CAT

Rajahs breeder, Rene likes to keep females, and trains for Agility, her dogs are quite good, and she breeds to IPO proven males. I liked the concept and with her being so close in location, and she health test, I decided to go with her for a puppy. Thanks for the links! Gretchen probably isn't...

Yes, please. I'd love that. My pup, Rajah will be 2 on April 24th. He's from oldfort dobermans in Tennessee. His mother is Gretchen Der Beschutzer and his father is Marco Vom Landgraf from Apexe Dobermans. I don't have plans for IGP. My brother competes so we occasionally go to practice. Rajah...

Right, exactly. I've heard this about German lines. It's all so interesting!

Hey Guys! I have American/European mix, but both of my dog's parents were bred in US. Dad is a IPO 3A Champ and Mom is an Agility Champ. They're pedigrees are readily available and before purchasing my pup, I looked through longevity and causes of death in his ancestors, but what wasn't clear...

Very cool! Can't wait to get started. Asha looks amazing, btw

He's the complete opposite. He's so good in the house. The crazy starts once we leave. Exactly, that face and his cuddles save him.

That would be great

Thanks for the nose work instructions. We'll definitely get started on that soon. I think he'll love it

Right, usually I take Rajah with me to places he is allowed to come to, so before winter, we went to my nephews football games. We also drive to my parents house or home improvement stores and pet stores. He always did well, just taking stuff in but one day, a flipped switched and he turned into...

Thanks for the advice! Giving him tasks as you and @Ravenbird suggested sounds like a good start. I'll put not work into that. Virtual rally is news to us but you've definitely got my attention. I'll do some research.

Well when he vocalizes around the house, he responds to "quiet", if he is being stubborn, I do tell him no and usually close the door, where he is barking at whatever outside has caught his attention. As far as obedience, he know the basics, sit, down, stand, heel (he'll post up at my side but...

Yeah he's from oldfort dobermans and the breeder, usually only keeps females. She likes to take her American or Am/Euro females, who she trains in agility and breed them to working european males. Most of her pups go to pet homes. I believe her goal is to breed confident pups with drive, but...

My car is too small for a crate, unfortunately, and no i dont reward while he is whining. The ball is very helpful for redirection, but it sucks if I forget it or it's not always practical to have. I don't want to lean on it too much or all the time.
