here's another idea you might want to try. Get the canine good citizen certification to show prospective landlords. It might convince them to allow an exception to a no dogs rule.

I think Canidae all life stages is good and affordable. But you really need to learn how to read the ingredient label of whatever dog foods are offered in your area.

Torch is very lucky to have you as an owner. You sound dedicated to being a great dog owner and you're setting a great example to other dog owners :)

I try doing a fast walk or jog with my dog since walking feels cold. Don't know if you like jogging but it would definitely raise your body temp higher than plain walking. Also I do play fetch down a long hall indoors.

Also keep in mind it may not be an issue that he is trying to be the dominant one or protective of you. A doberman may just give a growl because something is making him uncomfortable. It may be a confidence or shyness issue. Do not let people just walk up to him and touch him, they should...

Although I agree with the above that dobes should be allowed to do their job and alert you with a bark, I'm not sure it's okay to alert you to something 40yrds away. I personally do use a shock collar and think that they do have their place if properly used. Don't use the automatic kind (which...

I once worked as a security guard with dobermans, and man did I feel safe. People really show you respect with a dobe at your side. I also love their look, the elegant athlete I call it and they rarely have the usual doggie smell, a pretty clean dog they are.

Your poor buddy Ox has also realized that you can't always protect him as his pack leader, contributing to his fear. I too would stay away from dog parks, for all the reasons mentioned above, safety, hygiene, bugs and the issue I found with my dog, ground hog holes. The park i took my dobe to...

Oh boy, Rocco needs to learn some manners, and I hope your wife is okay, this must have been very stressful for her. It sounds like the poor dobie has some fear aggression. He needs to slowly be desensitived to different situations since he's probably feeling insecure about his environment. He...

Ditto on the thanks for rescueing the little guy that nobody else wanted :) also hello from a fellow canuck, I'm in Kitchener.

You can also try sprinkling some flax seed (good for omega 3 like salmon) on your dogs kibble food.

sorry I'm not familiar with all the lingo. who is FCI??

I was looking at the american standard for the doberman and noticed it didn't mention anything about weight guidelines. Did I just miss this or is there no weight standard for males and females?

I just created a doberman Christmas card for everyone :) Happy Holidays To All Our Doberman Friends | Dobermans Den

that is great pr for our dobes reputation. I'll have to post this on my dobe website as well.

I don't have stockings for my dobes but I did get them an early Christmas present. I bought them a wifi internet radio so they could listen to classical music while I'm at work :)

Super cute everyone! here is a video I made of my two buddies sleeping. http://dobermansden.com/shumanns-sleeping-dobermans/

thanks Jan now that it's winter here in Canada, my guys are getting bored indoors, I'll be ordering a couple of these food puzzles.

thankyou everyone for your input. I had no idea this was so common. And I'm not going to stress about it then.

I have a dobe that is 5yrs now and she still occasionally sucks on her blanket. Does anyone know why an adult dog would do this? I'm going to do some research on google and try to understand this. I have heard that maybe it's a mental issue or indication that the puppy was taken from the...
