Definitely not lethargic or lazy at all. I think I will call my vet about getting him tested just to make sure that’s not the case. We have tried to treat it topically and with food additives sardines salmon oil etc.

Hello everyone my male Doberman has been suffering from a little bit of hair thinning on his back. I was just curious about potential remedies that can be used or if there is potential concern of a thyroid condition that may need to be treated. Thanks for the input.

When I first introduced my goats to my male they ran and also got defensive naturally lol. It made for some fun trying to keep the goats and him from escalating things lol. They do ok now but I was sure for a minute.

I think getting them from a show breeder is just fine. And while getting them at and early age has its pros I think 10-12 weeks is great . Like others have said their ears will be healed which from my own experience with getting my 2 cropped after bringing them home makes for a rough couple...

When a partial spay is done does it help to prevent incontinence in females ?

Wrong terminology. I guess I meant partial spay.

I know you like a synthetic spay how does that affect the health of a dog moving forward ?

I’ve had to buy new shoes thanks to the Doberman shoe monger head lol

I haven’t seen this in dogs but in my experience with cattle it is not uncommon for a bull to shed 10% of his body weight during breeding season. And as far as kibbles go @Antman408 mentioned 2 good ones I can’t speak from experience with nature’s logic but have fed victor myself. And with all...

My male was the smallest when he was born and second largest upon pick up and now he weighs 95lbs. I wouldn’t worry about the growth that young just yet.

I just finished posting my female pup but she is 6 months and has a shorter crop. But at least you look like you got it figured out. If need be I can help you with paper towel posts it’s not as popular as the backer rod method but I posted my male that way and my female was half backer rod half...

The paper towel method is a little less harsh. And you can make them plenty ridgid just with back taping

Congratulations! Now the fun begins Doberman puppies are like sour patch kids candy.

Definitely less tape back taping is far more important. It takes time to figure it out completely. Lot of good advice here on the forum.

I will definitely ask about it and see my vet is pretty cool and we are friends so it shouldn’t be an issue. I appreciate the information and advice.

Alright well I know where I’m going from here with vaccines. I will be trying to get a blood draw done. I’m not real worried about my dogs and Parvo but don’t want to just vaccinate to vaccinate cause it pretty obvious that what used to be thought is no longer correct.

Is this something you can do on your own ? Or does it require a little training and know how ?

So if they got the full puppy schedule they don’t need the so called booster shot once a year after that?

I’ll take a browse through them and see what I find thank you !

I had a question regarding vaccinations. My male who is now 2.5 had his regular round of puppy vaccinations and then had a dhpp or the 5 way a year ago my vet just sent me a reminder that he’s do again. But I have read that once your dog has been established that yearly vaccinations should be...
