Hello everyone. I am new to posting on the forum but have been following for a while. I was on the list for a Doberman puppy but took a detour. I recently bumped into someone who had a Doberman puppy that was not a fit for their home. The dog is 6 months old and the other two dogs they had wet not very tolerant of him. So I decided to adopt him for my family. He is a typical puppy and definitely testing the waters to say the least. The issue I have is in looking at his UKC paperwork I noticed Canis Maximus!!!’ Following this forum for a while I know that this is not a reputable breeder.
What can I do to test the puppy to see what I am facing health wise? Embark?
It is not that I am looking to get rid of the puppy just because of his lineage. I am not going to show him he will just be a family companion , it is my kids first puppy ( 5 and 7 yrs old) and I don’t want to devastate them with a puppy that will be Ill his whole life. They are pouring their heart into him and we’ve only had him for a day. I would look to re-home him to a family without kids that would be better suited to deal wit . It may sound cruel but honestly it is not. It is coming from a good place just hard to express in writing .
