Hello everyone, I just adopted a puppy from foster care. They do not have much info on the puppy, other than what the vet said. The vet the foster care uses said she looks like a Rottweiler/Lab mix. So we went with that. Skip to a week later, our vet personally has a Doberman, and has had...

Hi guys. I went to PetSmart yesterday to pick up some items for my baby who I have not even picked up yet. As soon as I walked through the doors, an employee approaches us and greets my sisters German Shepherd puppy and we have a little conversation. After a while, I try to excuse myself from...

Hello, Our Maya is 11 months old and even with continuous training I cannot get her to listen to me. She listens to my partner however she runs circles around me. For example, she’ll be calm and obedient around him however as soon as he leaves the room she becomes very naughty. Such as knocking...

Hi! This is my first post of the forum. I have had my red male for 1 week and he is 9 weeks old apparently today. He only weighs 5.4kg (11.5lbs) and was only 5kg when he arrived at 8 weeks. Do you think the breeder lied about the pups age? I met his dad and he was huge.

Hello! Not only am I new here but my first post is asking for help. We acquired a Doberman puppy. The situation was weird but it wasn’t a typical buy from a trusted breeder. And this isn’t our first dobie. We had one that we unexpectedly lost at the beginning of the year to seizures and brain...

I am supposed to be getting a doberman puppy in about 2 weeks. The mother got hit by a car and died when the puppies were 5 weeks and 5 days old.

Morning everyone, We’re new time buyers of a Doberman puppy and while researched up, have a couple questions or are seeking advice. We know it’s taboo and everything and are not posing in a seemingly great forum to look for critics. We love her tons and want to provide her the best care and...

So we got our Doberman about 6 weeks ago. She seemed fine the first day but the second day she started biting. Obviously this is natural because she’s a puppy and all puppies bite, but since then she’s still been biting and we’ve tried all sorts of stuff that helps normal puppies. Letting your...

So they just took the stitches off and now they taped her ears up. but I noticed there is a piece of ear skin on her left ear at the point while her right ear doesn't have it. I called the vet where I got the cropping and they said its normal and that if I take her in they are gonna recharge me...

just had the second visit to the vet and had some questions maybe someone can clear up for me. The vets method for my dogs cropping is to bandage her up the first week to prevent bleeding and popping out a stitch(first pic), then undoing the bandage and letting them air out for a second week...

Hello everyone, My name is Alex Taylor and I have been searching for a service dog. I am in need of a Mobility Service dog with guide tasks and medical response tasks. I have found that most organizations can’t help with such a combination, and the one place I found that says they can, I...

My very much loved Doberman, who now is 9 months, has a growth under her eye on her skin which has a wart like texture. It is about 1/4 of an inch and has grown rapidly. She has two on her ear and one has grown really quickly. I took her to the vet and was told it was some type of growth but...

In about 3 weeks i'm going to adopt a Doberman puppy that will have just turned 8 weeks. I'm a very active person and I run a lot, so would I be able to jog with my pup? I've heard a lot of different opinions, some saying wait until 2 and some saying it's not a big deal.

Hi everyone, I'm posting this in the health section because the main reason I haven't gotten a Doberman yet is because I'm not 100% I can keep it happy and therefor healthy. Please help me to see if this dog is right for me. I will really appreciate any input. First off, reasons I want a...

My boyfriend and I have a 2 year old red male Doberman. His name is Ivan. We are really considering getting another Doberman but we are not sure if we should get a male or female. I have heard that if you already have a male you should get another, but I've also heard get a female. Would really...
