I’m picking up my Doberman puppy soon and I’ve been reading up on posting methods and tips. I’ve heard from one breeder that you should “test” the ear’s strength (leave them unposted for as long as they stand on their own) in between posting in order to see how the ears are progressing and...

Hello all! Our lovely 11 week old Female , Seilah was cropped a couple weeks ago, had her stitches removed Monday and was posted at the vet, with likely too much tape. Removed the posts/tape Thursday Night, inner ears all good, a little funky but nothing out of the ordinary, however the leather...

Hi, I have a 6 month old puppy and we've been doing lots of obedience training with him. For the most part he's doing really well, but he is SO discontent when left alone and jumps/whines at the doors outside. My husband and I both work from home, and during work hours we need to keep him...

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...

Hi, hope you all are well. Mowgli is 15 weeks old this Saturday. He is extremely shy of strangers. He has never acted aggressive, but just seems very unsure. He goes on 3 to 4 walks a day as I do not have a fenced in yard. During these walks we usually encounter a few people. You can usually...

hi all. Mowgli has been living with us for three weeks now (he is 12 weeks old today) and has been an absolute angel, even with the cats. One of my cats has sort of adopted him and goes everywhere with him. He listens well and from day one hasn’t really had an accident in the house .. we weren’t...

Hello! So I recently got a new member to the family Remi who is the sweetest of dogs but her breeder had never really socialized her with people or other dogs. She's about 3 in a half months and gets along great with my min pins, but any other animal, especially anything bigger than her she's...

Hi I got my european dobbie Jutajust 2 months ago and she was so clever. Every time she wanted to go out or get a food she was whining . Well now she started peeing and pooping inside without warrning. She still whines for a food though. Well I am scared as i have no idea how to fix it. Any...

Jasmine had her cup taken off on Monday and stitches out on Thursday and I'm so pleased with their shape already. Doc thinks her ears are really strong and will stand fast. He uses a different style to make them stand then what I know or have seen, but they're doing well for now. He said she...

Hi there, This breaks my heart but I need to rehome my pup because of a change in personal circumstances. I want to find her a great home, so if you or someone you know is interested, please reach out! We're in Seattle but I'm willing to drive to you, depending on location. About Lu...

Also x-posted in Doberman Puppies. We are getting a Doberman pinscher puppy, the litter was just born 5/5/18 and we are going to meet with the parents this weekend. I have a few (hundred) questions, as this is my first Doberman ever (I have had mutts before as well as tiny dogs and cats, a...

So our Doberman pup got his ears done 4 days ago. Last night a big scab fell off and it looks like the stitch is gone. It’s on the bottom. It did scab overnight. I contact my vet who is almost two hours away and sent him a picture. He said it looks okay just put some neoaporin on the area. I...

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...

Hey everyone. I’m new to the forum, and we are first time Dobie owners. Ears were cropped at 9 weeks, and puppy is 12 weeks now. We started posting this week. I’ve watched countless YouTube videos and read everything I can find. We have tried the method with straws and gauze and the backer rod...

I have had a few malinois, a few mastiffs, a staffy, German shepherd and grew up with dogs in my house hold. I am NEW to Dobermans. I am not used to the highly territorial and protective nature of the dog. May I mark that he is not overly aggressive and will even actively avoid dog fights at the...

Hello. I am a new dog owner and I have had my Doberman (flex) now for about 10 weeks. (Born Dec1). I have been feeding him Orijen Large Puppy dog food for about that same period of time. Slowly I eased him off a different dog food and now we are aroughly about 3 1/2 cups a day 1.5cup in the...

Well, My baby Thanos is close to a 100lbs now and just turned 10 months old a few days ago. He’s around 28” at the whithers and has muscles that eat other muscles; he’s about as thick as I can imagine a puppy can be. He plays near constantly so there’s nearly no body fat on the dog as per the...

Good morning all! We are having another big storm here in Northern California with a lot of rain in the horizon over the next few days. My Dixie girl (16 weeks) will NOT go potty in the rain. This morning she woke me up to go out at 4am and it was a downpour. I covered her ears and we went...

So right now I have my Dobermans separated in my backyard. I try introducing the puppy Leia to my older males and they didn't have it. They smelled her then she got happy and jumped on them and they got mad .-. So she got her butt beat by them but nothing bad, it felt like they were putting her...
