We DNA test three Doberman Planet viewers' dogs and uncover what surprising secrets are locked away inside their DNA! In this Embark reveal video, we health test these Dobermans and have a Veterinarian and Canine Geneticist reveal the results LIVE to our three families! This process can be an emotional one and the results revealed in this video to our families are no exception! Dobermans have several significant breed health issues and DNA health testing for this breed is extremely important. It can uncover things such as Dilated Cardiomyopathy (DCM, a heart disease) markers, von Willebrand's disease (vWD, a bleeding disorder) markers, their inbreeding levels which are directly linked to their longevity, nearby relatives, personality traits, and so much more. If you haven't already, this should be your wake-up call to finally get your Doberman DNA health tested!
As most Doberman owners know all too well, not every dog product works well for this unique breed. That's why I maintain a list of the best products I've found so far for Dobermans.

Thank you for the discount! I'm ordering this test for my 1YR old red girl Tessa in hopes of being able to breed her one time 🧡🤍 Love your videos and wonderful information you bring to Doberman world!❤
It's sitting on my counter, mailing in tomorrow, great timing for this video! 5 month old red 🐾💖 🤞
Did the embark test and get interesting results 1/2 dobie and 1/2 Shephard...we think she came from a backyard breeder...she is a big love bug and certified pet therapy team
Thank you so much for invaluable information and your channel🙏♥God Bless You and our Dobbies🙏🫶
DCM - what a heart breaker. 3 weeks ago I lost my big beautiful boy to this. He was 10 years old and a very active farm dog with 7 buddies to run with. The symptoms came on quickly and within 3 weeks he died in my arms. He was a large, lean fawn color at 110 pounds and a very loving devoted friend. He is desperately missed
Oh no. We are so sorry to read about your loss. Your boy sounds like he was such a great companion and we know he was certainly loved! Grieving your loss with you.
Siento mucho su pérdida, mis dos niñas se fueron a los siete y nueve años, ambas en mis brazos y por más terrible que parezca es la mejor despedida, en ese último abrazo 😭 espero encontrarme con ellas en mí transición. Le mando un fuerte abrazo 💜
😢 sorry for your loss 🙏
Thanks again John, for another informative video. I haven't ever done any testing on my Dobermans yet, but I shall on my next rescue. Bravo! Thank you to the 3 participating Dobie parents.
You're very welcome, April! That's a great idea to have Bravo DNA tested - never know what you'll find!
Thank you so much for this channel! It was through you that I learned how informative the Embark DNA test is. I did it on my blue Doberman, Bella, last year. I was, like most Doberman owners, anxious about DCM markers. It was a huge relief to learn that she does not have either DCM markers, although she does have two copies of Von Willibrand gene. Again, thank you for all the information and tips you share. ❤
That's so encouraging to hear! Congratulations for not having any markers for DCM, and it's so great to be informed about the VWD as well.
I wish I would have done this with my female blue Doberman, this is great information and almost a must with this breed, thank you for sharing.
My 5-1/2 year old European Doberman ‘Loki’ presented symptoms of DCM last week. The vet provided meds and advice but warned me Loki wasn’t likely to live longer than six months. We are all heartbroken but committed to this breed (Loki is our second Doberman, Duke made it to 11 years) and already thinking about getting another. Loki was advertised as having been tested but clearly we weren’t curious enough about what that actually meant.
John, you are a saint for this breed and future owners. Because of your videos, starting four years ago about the breeds’ vulnerabilities I just ordered an Embark kit for Loki so his info can get entered into the genetic database.
When the time comes to begin the puppy search, we will be way more tuned in than in the past. John, I think you mentioned a list of ‘certified’ breeders but haven’t found that yet. If you could provide a link, it would be greatly appreciated. And thank you for all you do and have done to educate owners and promote this fantastic line of truly the finest canines that exist! Best to you and yours.
Thank you so much, Rick. Your feedback certainly means a great deal. We are so sorry to hear that Loki now has to be under watch for the DCM symptoms he has been presenting. It's very smart of you to order the DNA test kit so that you can be more informed. Please message us on Facebook or Instagram and we can get you some helpful resources for breeders. Best to your family as well!
I’m still a bit of a dinosaur, not on FB or Insta but my wife is so, she’ll be reaching out. Did my Embark swab today so it’s in the mail mañana. Take care.
@@rickbammesberger1721sorry to hear about Loki. We had similar results from our two dobies. Spent thoughsands on heart specialists and still the same outcome. Stay strong and find a good breeder. We are about to embark on the same journey in the coming months for a new best bud. Ain’t nothing like a dobie.
your not a dinosaur. You’re just very careful to put out your info on sites that mine it and sell it. Once you are on Facebook, they are in your computer and your email list is now theirs.
6:00 coefficient of inbreeding (COI)
7:20 VWD
10:00 DCM
Thanks!! This will be helpful for some people for sure!
I ordered a kit and sent it in this week. Hoping for great results to help my pup!
That's great!! Fingers crossed for good results for you!
Flint has a COI of 32% and only had 1 copy of DCM 2. This is interesting to me because his mom and dad were both carriers of vWD and DCM 2. My boy turned out to be healthier than both of his parents!
That's so wonderful to hear about Flint!! Kudos to you for having him tested.
Great video, John. Our puppy Birkline's Khatra Badger came from the breeder with Embark research. Thankfully, a pretty good report.
Wonderful news!!
I tried to use your link to get the discount so you could get paid for it. They wouldn't let me take their deal off. Yours would have saved me $60, theirs saved me $40. I got attached to another object by an incline plane wrapped helically around an axis. (screwed)
We did the DNA test on our girl, Bala. I was worried about seeing any disease markers. Sure enough, the only thing that came up was that her ALT level is low, which after talking to our vet, isn't a bad thing. We also learned that she is 6.2% Rottweiler and not a pure bred Doberman. She's still our baby girl!
That is so interesting! You never know what you'll find, but it's great to be informed either way. So glad you were proactive and took the step to test Bala!
We got our girl from a friend who had puppies. No cost to us. Another friend got one of her sisters. His vet jumped to the conclusion that his girl had willebrand and said that she shouldn't get fixed. I told our friends that he should find another vet to do it because our girl doesn't have the markers, so chances are his doesn't either. I encourage every dog owner to get this test because of that!
15:28 “Even though she’s a little bit of an inbred hillbilly” 😂
Hahaha! They are too funny!!
Just got the results from embark, my boy has a COI of only 20% but unfortunately he came back positive for the DCM 1 dominant gene. Im hoping for the best for my pup and hope he lives a long life because i love him to death.
Excellent video! Very informative and helpful information. Thank you for putting the discount code for Embark under the video description! Your love for this amazing, unique, and truly special breed is very apparent and I enjoy watching your videos.
Great video. We did Embark tests on both our rescue Dobie and our breeder-bought Dobie. On Ross, our rescue, I was not surprised to learn that he is really only 97% Doberman as I suspected to find him to be more German Pinscher than Dobie because of his appearance. I was shocked, though, that his little rat in the woodpile was GSD, not German Pinscher. On our breeder bought female, the breeder claimed to have had both parents and the pups tested and that she had one copy of the DCM1 gene. Embark confirmed that the info we had been given by the breeder was accurate, so that was good. Of course we never intended to breed her, but we are informed so that we can be watchful.
That is smart of you to test both of your Dobies, Sheilah! It's always interesting and exciting to see what results will come up.
My baby Pita a Doberman mix was just diagnosed with DCM. She just turned 3 in December and was a rescue and I am at a loss, we have a cardio appt at the end of May to see how bad it is😢
Question for you. What confidence do you have in this dna testing? Are the vets confident? I’m not trying to cause an issue, but we know the dna tests for us humans thru 23 and me and similar sites are suspect at best. I’m hoping the ones your using are really good medical grade so we can utilize them and have confidence in the results. Tks for the vids.
I tried this, and it turns out my dog was just a really ugly kid 😂😂😂
John!
There is another test which you can do starting at one year old to establish a baseline for your Dobie called a CardioPro BNP which detects the level of troponin produced by the heart. This is actually a very effective test to measure the progression of anything heart related!
Very interesting! Thank you for sharing!
So happy for Apollo great that you found a good breeder. A sign for DCM is drinking a lot of water and slimy water, 5 years old when died dish, a month before he took a turn for the worst he was in for his yearly check up and the vet said how good he looked my other Doberman was over 10 no signs . My 10 year old north American Doberman the breeder did not care said was a good age, My 5 year old European Doberman the breeder was no longer in business after 7 years but her dogs had DNA testing all good but she left a lot of heart break. Really have to figure out health at the breeding stage.
Yes, figuring out their health is super important - especially if you plan to breed! Thank you for sharing your experience with us, Christopher!
Does a dog have to be an adult for the DNA testing or can you get reliable results on a puppy?
Do you know anybody selling European Dobermans ?
Dr Kate Meurs was one of my cardiology teachers. Interesting that she went on to discover the mutations for the DCM gene. She’s absolutely brilliant. I think she worked on Boxer cardiomyopathies too. She helped me regulate a sick dog with Chagas’ disease when I was a student.
John please do a video on common Doberman allergies!
I can’t believe Apollo was clear of everything, that’s crazy!
I have learned alot from watching 👀 your videos. Thanks for all of the great information.
I got my DNA and health kit using your code for my 6 month old female Dobie named Habibi... She has one copy of each DCM1 and DCM2. Praying for the best. I love my girl!
There's no excuse for breeding VwD affected dogs (or 'white' Dobermanns). All Dobermanns ideally should be screened for DCM regardless of DNA status. Thank you for promoting awareness of Dobermann health issues so much John.
Yes, breeders should definitely be careful and take those diseases into heavy consideration before potentially multiplying issues for another generation. Thanks for your feedback and thoughts!
This is a great video. Very informative
So glad you enjoyed it John! Means a lot!
I love dobermans
we love dobermans
Hi I have a Doberman boxer mix
The dog is now 6 years old and he has some skin tags and a lot of bumbs under the fur
The doctor said these are lipoma
But I can feel it all over the body now after I pay more attention to it
Also I removed a few skin tags and maybe it is a Doberman thing as well but he takes a long time to recover.. I had a sheppard and staffoedshire terrier before and they never had so much problems. I know you aren’t a doctor and I’m not asking for any advice but may you can talk in one of your videos about it …
What best to do before and after Anastasia special for Doberman
And skin or und the skin problems
Heard that blue Doberman having it as well
And my dog father was a blue Doberman
So may that would be a good topic for one of your videos
My Zorro hsd a heart attack died 26 yrs ago i miss him
Why would I buy a doberman before doing genetic testing? Only to find out the dog will have serious heart problems?
Great video, after having 2 Dobermans I'm glad you are making this information known. I will say the last part about being purebred and everyone on the video being relived their Doberman was 100% Doberman was concerning. I have a rescue and he is likely at least 50-75% Doberman and he displays more natural Doberman traits than any purebred Doberman that I have ever owned. For example naturally guarding hallways and rooms where kids are playing. Its really odd, but true and he's the best guard dog without any training. I think instead of celebrating the purebred Doberman you should look into possible hybrid combinations with other dogs.
Can you recommend where I can find a pet or show dog doberman that grown about 1yr old. I dont want a rescue dog if possible.
Hi John, i’ve been wanting to get a doberman for over a year and DCM has been my biggest deterrent. I can’t seem to find this information anywhere, so I’m asking you. What are the chances of dobermans lacking both DCM genes developing DCM at a later point?
Do you have any info on the ALT activity? I tested mine and she was cleared with everything except that. My old vet was useless and wasn’t help, and I’m waiting for the appointment for the new vet.
My dobie is 2.5 years old. I purchased him from a breeder that had done the heart testing for the male she breeds. We did the embark testing and learned our boy is a carrier of DCM2. I also learned that the breeder also did the embark test prior to breeding her male(my dobies dad). I thought it was best to let her know our results. Needless to say she informed me her male is also a carrier of the DCM2 gene. This information was not provided to us prior to purchasing our Doberman. She still continues to breed this same male and it really bothers me because she doesn’t disclose the testing. Should breeders disclose dna results or should they only disclose heart testing results? We will start doing all of the heart testing for our Doberman because at his two year check up the vet could hear an arrhythmia while listening to his heart.
You'll have to meet my Isabella Doberman named Leia
This video is great. I have my red female doorman down here in Mexico. She is lovely
Do you know anywhere in California that has any European Dobermans for sale
Do you have any content on bringing home/introducing new puppy to an older dog?
This video was great fun my friend, it’s so kind of to share the topic in it too bless you for this video too.
I'll be ordering this test real soon too! I think it's a great thing to do for our beloved Dobermans!!
We will ban you with no reason sorry 0:06
What kind of dog food do you feed your puppies
Excellent and very informative. Thank you for your work
Thanks so much, Cathy! Love having your feedback and glad you enjoyed this!

Excellent video…..
Excellent video….
Perfect thumbnail 🙏🏽 hope to get my boy tested as well and help contribute to a healthy doberman future! Amazing video as always!
Many thanks for the DNA info. I plan to purchase a Doberman pup when I acquire a few acres of land. Knowing genetic pre-dispositions will be very helpful when making my selection. Have an enjoyable Thanksgiving celebration with your family and loved ones.
This was great. I pulled the Embark reports for my two Doberman rescues as this was presented and the Dr.'s advice was helpful. One of mine has a Von Willebrand 1 which is why my vet. is requiring a blood test before any surgery and my other has DCM 1. My Vet. was extremely happy that I had these tests done and can provide the best care for my Doberman's. Embark made it very easy with an excellent report to me as well as my Vet.
This breed (and others) could easily improve the quality of future generations (health and longevity) by enforcing strict testing as part of formal kennel registration. No test, no registration and no show. It really is that simple - but - unfortunately the powers that be are not ranking dog health as number 1. This requires government legislation and forced change.
Is a thyroid issue something that shows up on a DNA test? My red Dobie had it with hair loss. I lost her from cancer in a leg fracture she received when her mom got up suddenly at two days old.😢
I tested 1 yr old Prince. It's amazing.
Kudos to you!!

Wonderful information. I have to get this test. It will help for my baby.
Thanks so much! Yes, it will definitely help you to be a more informed owner!

I’ve wanted a dobie for about 5 years now, I’ve saved money every paycheck to be able to buy one soon. DCM is one of the things that stops me from really committing to buying one.
That's great to hear you've been so dedicated to saving your money for a Doberman! They are wonderful companions - worth their weight in gold. Ask your potential breeder to see health results from both parents - this will help give you clarity.
@@DobermanPlanet thank you! Any specific tests you recommend to ask for that’ll be a giveaway?
Then I wish these weren't so expensive. I'd love to get my doberman and my german shepherd tested
Keep your eye out on their page for sales! It would be a great Christmas present to give your and your pups!
@@DobermanPlanet thank you
This is fantastic. Thank you!
