Depends on why you're leaning towards a Dobie. If you think that this dog will make you look like a Bad A**, you will be mistaken. However, if you are attracked to the dog's personality traits, and you have researched the pros and cons-fine. I think a well-bred Dobie, with an experienced owner, can be a great dog.
BTW: Dogs that, lick people too much, nip, bark too much, rub their toys on you, nudge your hand to get you to pet them, or engage in any behavior's that are not welcome, are RUNNING the show. The dog's owner, should dictate which behavior is appropriate.
