In an effort to create the perfect working dog, it is thought that German
breeder Louis Dobermann combined the best qualities of
German Pinscher,
Rottweiler,
Manchester Terrier and the
Greyhound
to create the Doberman Pinscher dog breed.
First accepted for registration by the German Kennel Club in 1900,
the popular Doberman Pinscher breed was imported to North America
in 1908, and has since become internationally renowned as a
security dog, Dobermans do extremely well in obedience work.
Doberman Pinschers are intelligent, loyal, affectionate dogs that make
wonderful family pets.
Of medium build and height, the Dobermans' sleek, short coat comes in
black, red, blue or fawn, all with rust markings.
Grooming requirements are minimal (ears are often cropped, but may also
be left natural).
Doberman Pinschers require plenty of exercise to keep their sleek
appearance, and do well in either rural or urban settings, provided that
regular walks are offered.
Early and consistent obedience training is essential.
