Are South American dobermans considered to be North American in style rather that Euro? The SA dobes seem to be lighter in bone and more elegant that Euros. I've seen SAs in NA pedigrees like Lex Luthor from Argentina and a Michigan breeder championed (is that a word?) an import from Von Wallsal kennel in Argentina and uses him for stud. The Brasilian dobermans look more NA than Euro to me as well. So is this a new world/old world thing? Where does South America fit in?
