We love the breed, smart, trainable and lovely to look at. Having standard poodles for the past fourty years we always joke they are like dobermans with hair. The good thing with standards is when they ask what kind of dogs we have, we say poodles. They smile and say that's fine.
Dobermans also seemed to be going through a lot of health issues. They do not have the longest life expectancy. Saying that, find a good breeder that does all of the health testing. They make fantastic, loyal pets.
My wife has joked with me saying we should cross them with a standard poodle and call them doberdoddles.
As the owner of a Lesser American Toodle I think you should be careful what you ask for. Dealing with a coat that confused can be extremely challenging.

I have a mini Schnauzer now. Always liked the look of a Doberman and have done alot of reading on them. My niece works for me and she lives at the business here. She has a 7 year old German Shepard that is nasty. If you turn your back on it it nips you. She also has a two year old Pit Bull that is the biggest baby. This dog can't stop licking you. I really think it has a Problem.
The inability to control their likker is a breed trait. This is the big joke of having a pit... everyone thinks they'll "rip your leg off" and they're more apt to knock someone flat and lick them to death.

๐ As long as it is a joke. Designer dogs in my opinion are muts that naive people pay ridiculous prices for.

I couldn't have siad it better. We looked for 2 years before getting our male. We have them both tested annually. As far as health issues all of mine have lived 10-14 years only 1 had hip issues. Not too bad for a bog breed. I do wish they lived as long as we do.

Dobies get a bad rap. As far as staying in campgrounds you will have problems. I once acquired a half dobie thinking he would be a good watch dog. Naa; all he wanted was to give love and be loved. They are extremely smart and react well to training.
We take our dogs everytime we go camping and havn't had an issue yet. But we are always watching out for situations that may arise. Once while at Glacier Park several years ogo my female was about 6 months old, we were walking her when she was bitten on her leggs by 2 Los Apsos (sp)that were running loose, the owner thought it was cute that her little dogs had bite a doberman. She hasn't liked little dogs since. Seems like it always comes back to the owners ๐

Raised and showed Dobermans for years. Great dogs but "the bear II" is correct. Many place will not let you in with them. I have a 100Lb Pit Bull lap dog that has to stay home most of the time since most places know he's "a time bomb waiting to explode" :).
And when he explodes he will probably lick you to within an inch of your life. ๐ I have always said its the handlers not the breed!
