Any Q

Dobermanns and children. Dobermanns can be calm and loyal dogs given the right training, but they are still very energetic and so suit active households. While they can make great family pets, due to their large size and strong build we wouldn't recommend a Dobermann if you have young children.


Why you should not get a Doberman?

Potential animal aggression. Some Doberman Pinschers are dominant or aggressive toward other dogs of the same sex. Some have strong instincts to chase and seize cats and other fleeing creatures. Being able to control your Doberman's behavior with other animals is another reason for a thorough respect training program.

Does a Doberman make a good pet?

Overall, Dobermans can make excellent pets, provided they have received proper training and socialization. We also recommend this breed most to experienced dog owners.

What's it like owning a Doberman?

Dobes are playful and affectionate towards their family. Dobermans are high energy dogs and do best with active owners who have plenty of time to spend with the dog daily. Doberman Pinschers who are raised with children can be good family companion pets.

What are the cons of a Doberman?

Dobermans are susceptible to a number of different health problems – so you'll want to make sure you've got your pet insurance in order if you get a Dobie pup. They can suffer from a life-threatening digestive condition called bloat. Hip Dysplasia is another health problem that Doberman owners will need to be aware of.
