Doberman 101: Why First Time Owners FAIL
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 июл 2024
- Should a first-time dog owner get a Doberman? If you've never owned any dog before and you choose a Doberman, there are certainly some traps that are easy to fall into. These traps are why so many recommend that Dobermans should only be raised by experienced dog owners. But, I don't believe that myself. I think you absolutely can be successful raising a Doberman Pinscher even if you've never had a dog before, you just need to know what the common pitfalls are, so you can plan ahead and avoid them! Yes... you can do this!
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.

The dedication and love put into raising my very 1st puppy when I was in my early 20’s is one of my proudest achievements. Otto, my gorgeous Doberman, was to serve as my “practice baby” because, at the time, I was conflicted whether or not to have kids. Before bringing Otto home from the breeder, I read 28 dog books cover to cover and hired a PhD animal behaviorist expert to train me (not him!). When Otto was a puppy I exposed him to every scenario under the sun to make sure he would have a calm happy life and make the world a brighter place. We bonded and had lots of fun training together for his CGC test. My mom who never - and I mean NEVER - compliments me, and who is not a pet person, fell in love with him and said: “You will make an excellent mother one day if you do even half the job you did with this wonderful dog.” That’s one of my happiest memories.
He alive now?
Thanks for the comment! Thats what i needed to hear to gain the selfconfidence to get one of those dogs 🥰 I’m willing to put all of me into training my dog, but I always wondered if that‘s enough. So thanks for sharing that it is enough! I will be a first time owner but had dogs as well as many foster dogs as a child and also kept researching about them since then. So it might work out 🥳
Im sure you Will be a great mother no offense. You can never compare train dogg to taking care of a Child. A dog, you own. A Child NOT. Its a Total different job. May be read the book the awakened family from shefali tsabary and you know what i mean
Comparing dogs to children is.....beyond ridiculous.
some principles carry over such as discipline and protection@@Bradley_Warrenton
Does anyone else not have a Doberman and not want one at least right now but still watch for fun?😂
Kate34 I don’t have a Doberman but I rly want one
I have a doberman and sometimes I don't want one lol jk jk lol
Im not sure I am ready for any kind of dog, its a commitment beyond simple sacrifices
My first dog is a lab he is now 4. I see where I need to improve on leash training. That’s the only area I fell short it. I deff want a Doberman
I do :-))
EXCELLENT advise. I was terrified when my husband suggested a Doberman as first time dog owners! We did our research and learned everything you said before getting our puppy. We did great! Now, we can only see ourselves as Doberman owners...the most awesome breed (and,yes, stubborn)...nothing a good owner can’t handle. If you don’t have it in you to be the”Alpha” and have the time to have fun with your dog, a Doberman is NOT for you. No lazy owner apply.
the worst Dobie I ever had was simply a chiseler, give him a time out in the corner and 20 minutes later after variety of his maneuvers, he'd be pressed against your calf w his head atop your knee, smiling. Had another one that you had to be careful to not over-correct, very sensitive & lived to please, that would be 2 out of 3. the ! of 3 had a unique set of circumstances = rotating owners and was always testing shifting boundaries.
Your point = no lazy owner apply absolutely true.
Well put
Totally agree Suzanne! The hardest part is new dog owners just aren't sure of themselves sometimes and the dog picks up on that. Just gotta get a little extra prepared to you DO feel sure of yourself and all will be good! So glad you had such a good experience!
The whole alpha and dominating your dog is bullshit by the way. It’s been debunked so many times. You do need to be a good and strong leader though but that’s very different than being an alpha
I think you misunderstand the Alpha thing. You do have to be the one in charge...just like with kids. Otherwise, they will not listen. It is not about beating your dog and being mean. It is about being in charge.
Our first dog was a Doberman and she was the most well behaved dog I’ve ever seen in my life! I was little when we had her, so my father did the training. He was extremely diligent in her training and she was the most obedient dog I’ve ever seen. We could even have her off leash. I solely base how great our experience was with how my father trained her, as well as her breeding. I would love another Dobe someday!
That's so great to hear Trisha! I hope you do get another some day. Sounds like your Dad knew what he was doing!
The most well behaved dog how did you do it? My doberman Mocha Chip Mayberry (first name Mocha) is not well behaved. She knows her commands she is sneaky. She waits until we go to sleep to get on the couch. She hears me call her name and I tell her Mocha get off the couch she looks at me and stares me in my eyes and ignores me. So I have to nudge her in the butt with my foot to get her to move. She sneaks to the trash. She sneaks to drink out of the toilet. She is too smart for her own good! She has been told 100 times but she is stubborn. She's not a full year yet though. On a positive note she is the most friendly dog I've ever met. She was very well socialized. She doesn't nip at all. But she is a pain in the ass she won't let me go anywhere without following me and sniffing my butt. This is my first dog ever and I'm use to cats. She's basically another child. A big muscley child.
@@jazdmay2071 Put the toilet lid down. same with the trash can. if she knocks over the trash try putting some weights in the bottom. reward her for getting off the couch by tossing a treat she wants away from the couch.
@@lyreparadox Will try, we are getting a new couch so we have to be strict with her.
jazD May for the couch while your sleeping, just kennel train her and she can sleep in there, close the bathroom door, for the trash can I’m not sure if you stimulate her brain and exercise her she should be fine and when not playing around with her and she is a little burnt out train her and practice commands. I am definitely not a professional and might be wrong but just a though. Good luck 👍🏼
As a long time Dobe owner( over 20+years of rescues and rehomed Dobes) I could not have put the advice any better,another excellent vid.
Be firm ,fair,and consistent, consistent, consistent 👍🙂
Thank you James! Coming from someone with such a long history of Dobies that really means a lot to hear! Thanks for the comment!
I am picking up my first doberman next Saturday. 10 week old male European. Health tested and verified. My friend has a doberman that made me fall in love with the breed years ago. My wife and I are very excited. Although I have done ample alternative research, your videos still give me an edge on learning more about the breed. You supply the some of the highest quality content on the subject. Much appreciation from NJ
Mathew Bryan do you mind sharing what breeder your getting yours from? I’m searching for the right breeder😊
Mathew Bryan Congratulations and happy days ahead of you.
Congrats Mathew! I'm so happy for you and your new pup! Such an exciting time. I can't tell you how much your kind words mean to me. I put a lot of work into helping people as best as I know how and it's so nice to hear that someone is getting some use out of it!
How's it going with your pup?!
How is it going now???
I've wanted a Doberman ever since I was a kid and saw a movie on TV called "The Doberman Gang". We didn't get one because my dad believed they were bad dogs because they were used by the Germans in WW2, so they were regarded as "vicious". Then in the 80s, there were 2 on the TV show "Magnum P.I." which made me want one (and a Ferrari 308) even more. I finally got one in Oct. 2019. He was 11 months old at the time. We play Hide and Seek in the house but he already knows all my hiding spots. I'll hide treats all over and tell him "Find it" and he goes searching for them. Out on walks, he loves meeting people and other dogs. Only problem sometimes is, people with smaller dogs (ankle biters mostly) see us coming and they head the other way or cross the street to avoid us. I guess they shared my father's mentality. It makes me feel bad for both dogs because they obviously want to meet.
Yeah Joe R, I know what you mean about Magnum (Dobes and the 308!). Also know what you mean about other people with dogs. Like you said, the dogs want to meet but their owners don't because the other dog is a Dobe. One woman near us (no names mentioned) has two smaller dogs; both are brilliant and would love to run with our Coco, but this woman will not let them near us. She actually told me that 'dogs like that should not be allowed'. I thought better of telling her to **** off, and just walked away. Some people are just too far gone, too set in their ways. But we live with it, because we're better than that and we love those Dobes don't we ! Oh YEAH !! (Got a Choc Lab and a JRT too, so love all dogs).
Oh my gosh that’s so funny you say that! I’m watching the sequel to that movie right now! It’s called The Daring Dobermans, and the last movie of the series is The Amazing Dobermans😊
It was the United States that used dobermans in WWll. They were the mascot of the Marines. Check out the War dog memorial in Guam. You'll see.
If you look at WWll German footage I challenge you to find a single doberman in any of their films. In fact, it was the United States who received the best of what was left of the german dogs. Check out Illena and the Seven Sires.
The North American Standard most closely resembles the original doberman.
"Proud, of noble carriage, poured into the skin". A doberman is meant to be an extremely agile creature. Bigger is not conducive to agility.
And since I'm here keep your dog away from strange dogs, especially smaller dogs as if anything goes awry, the doberman is going to get the blame.
Same when I go to the dog park and my dog is the only one there owners with little dogs avoid coming to the park and turn around and go back to there car when they see my dog.
But the reality is my Doberman LOVES other dogs and loves to play ❤️ big or small dogs
I did not let my dogs sniff other dogs on walks as the dogs can infect your dog with parasites fleas ticks etc plus they can snap or bite your dog causing eye injuries or can tear your dogs ear causing a big vet bill and causing it to drop permanently. 45 yrs dobe experience. i took my dog to the dobe breeder for dog friend playtime.
My first dog as a kid was a Doberman. My dad basically used him as my teaching tool for how to handle a dog. They're wonderful dogs, you just can't neglect to train them.
It would benefit us if you'd kindly note Arlo's age in the description. That way we can compare the size/activity level/training/etc. with Arlo's.
Not a bad idea! I just added it to this video's description!
Man this might be my 3rd time watching this video, and it really made me feel better. Today was a rough day with my pup, she’s at a point where she’s trying to see what she can get away with and working a full time job doesn’t help, I won’t give up though. #consistency and #selfdiscipline
Oh yeah you're in the thick of it! Hang in there... seriously. There's just that stage where they're testing boundaries. But if you don't give up and hold the line you'll get through it and have a GREAT dog when you're done! It's tough, but you know what to do!
Me and my partner are definitely in the pool of people that didn’t do too much research on the Doberman breed before getting him but we love him to bits! Your videos have definitely helped us be less stressed about the what ifs and focus on the controllables. Love your videos, love Arlo - I wait for your new tips every week!!
Superb advice again. My wife was not happy when I suggested that we get a Dobermann, then we went to The Dobermann Trust (a Dobe-specific rescue centre) and she fell in love. Best advice, be the alpha, but be the sort of alpha that you would want to work with. And again, that word, consistency.
Can't believe it took me so long to discover this channel - Mr. Walters you are awesome ! You should be doing this stuff on TV man, I'd watch it and I'm sure there are many more who would too.
So glad you convinced the wife! That's most of the battle right there! Haha. Thank you so much for the kind words. That really means so much. I can't tell you how much love and support I've gotten from my subs lately. You're awesome Michael! Don't be a stranger in the comments section!
@@DobermanPlanet Love and support is earned, and man have you earned it ! Awesome. Nothing else out there like the stuff you post, don't stop !
Haven't had a doberman since I was younger and we are going to met our puppy next weekend and picking him up next month. I have been watching all of you videos over and over again, keep them coming!
Most RUclips videos: dobermans aren’t beginner breeds they’re too intense
This video: *exists*
Me: The articles of truth and wisdom hath been written...
Haha! Yeah I just would never so "no you can't own this breed" to someone who was willing to put in the work and effort. Why shouldn't a first time owner do it? You can't assume every first time owner is the same, some are willing to research and prepare more than others.
Was for me. Lots of work and$ but I'd get another
Enjoyed your great video ! Very informative n interesting. It is very useful for ALL dog owners, not just dobie owners. For first time or experienced ones too. Plus feel your POSITIVE support for dog owners.
Looking forward to your next one. You're making a difference !
Thank you so much for your informative videos! You have a natural talent for finding creative ways to train these guys😊 I can’t wait til I get my first Dobe one day! I’ll have to transition out of my apartment to a house first, but it’s still a fun thing to look forward to❤️
Boy I cannot wait until I get my puppy. I am getting him this weekend. Thanks for all of your help. I have been watching you for weeks trying to get prepared.
by far the best doberman channel i have ever seen..keep giving us info about doberman.i am a doberman owner too so its fun watching your channel and listen your word
i just got a doberman from a rescue about a moth ago as my first dog. he's a year old. and has a lot of bad habits. these videos have helped a lot. appreciate you guys
I loved this video. Definitely going to apply your advice when I finally get my Dobbie.
I love watching your videos. My Rommel passed away last year, and I miss him terribly
Hands down the best RUclips Doberman videos, as parents of Dachshunds my wife was also nervous when I suggested to rescue a Doberman. I had already been watching your channel and showed her your videos, we got our girl from Doberman rescue of North Texas back in February. And my wife and I couldn't be happier, we love taking our fur babies on hikes, and our Doberman is such a well behaved dog thanks to your excellent work, Thank you.
Thank you for these videos, it is hard raising a dobie puppy for sure, particularly a first. We're learning as much as we're trying to teach the dog and the pep talk is nice to hear. Consistency does sink in, but it takes many failures and patience and more consistency for sure.
Hi there, I just wanted to thank you for putting this content out there. Our first dog (a dobie) will be joining us in a couple of weeks. I've got to be honest - not having owned a dog before I do feel a little apprehensive, but having learnt so much over the last year and listening to what you're saying here gives me hope that I'll be a good parent. Thank you.
All your videos have helped me so much. All advise taken has worked. My dog is now 20 weeks.
Excellent video! Love the positive energy and useful advice!
Thank you, John! Very informative video.
I am considering getting a Doberman. The first time that I considered it, I researched and read in many places that it's not a suitable breed for first owners. This put me down a little, but after watching this video I realise with the right devotion and patience it is possible. Thank you once again, sir, for this amazing video.
How is it going now?
My brother and I both really want a dog, and I started to do some research, I found this channel and it is VERY helpful, keep up with the great work!
Thank you so much for all your advice! Me and my family have not owned a dog before but have done plenty of research and am super excited to adopt a Doberman. This video helped out a ton so keep up the great vids please!
Bringing home our blue girl soon. She’s our first Doberman but we’ve done our research and feel ready. We can’t wait!
Sian Parmenter do you mind sharing where your getting your doberman?
Honestly, that's 70% of the battle right there... just feeling ready. If you feel ready you'll be more confident and the dog will pick up on that. You'll do great! Good luck!
Hi John, thanks for the awesome video again! Could you please do one on teaching a Dobermann loose leash walking and also the use of a Prong collar? Thank you
I'm just looking through your videos now and your passion for Dobermans are infectious indeed! But they have always been my dream dog and am beyond grateful you make these videos. Keep up the good work! You'll be seeing some questions from me in the future! Lol
Thank you dude! Great, encouraging content👍🏼
AMAZING video. You are hands down my favourite RUclipsr. I don't know if you remember me, but I commented on your last video and mentioned that I'm getting a doberman in a month. This would actually be my first dog, but the amount of research I did before talking to the breeder was huge, starting around 2016 and continuously going until now. Once again, your video was top quality as usual, and the information in it was SO helpful for me, and delivered excellently. Thank you.
That's so exciting Henrodd! Thank you so much for the kind words, it really does push me along to keep working hard to help people out when I read comments like yours. Good luck, I know you'll do great with your new pup!
love your channel, thank you so much for your time and effort.
Thanks brother, amazing informative video. Keep it up!
I’m getting my Doberman July 18th (it’s been been my dream dog since high school) and your videos are helping me prepare so much! They are just what I needed. Still have 8 weeks to prepare but I’m grateful for you and Arlo in this time!
Thank you so much Madison I'm SO glad you found some useful info in my videos. Congrats on your new pup on the way! You'll do great! Don't be a stranger!
I'm Betta 7 year old girl from Malta and I'm getting a Doberman together with my mum and dad. We really love to follow your videos you give great advice.
Thank You Mr.Walter,I Have Been Watching Your Videos Of Dobermans Because im Planning on Getting One Or Maybe Even Two As my First Dogs. I Admire Your Work And All The Information You Give Thats Needed For This Beautiful Creatures .
I cant put into words how much your videos help please get sponsorships with some pet products we will definitely buy them
This video was definitely for me... I always enjoy your videos!
I'm so glad! Thank you Donyelle!
Thanks John this video is just for someone like me. Very informative as always. Keep it up 👍
You are very welcome! So glad you enjoyed the video, much appreciate you checking it out.
literally goat ! i’m really thinking about getting me a Doberman (hope it didn’t come out wrong), and you really encourage me and motivate me to y’know, taking it seriously and looking for these important parts. Thank you !
Hello! This video is very helpful because I am getting a Doberman as my 3rd dog. I love your channel! Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much, I love hearing that someone is getting some use from my videos!
Definitely good advise. Really needed to hear this. Thank you.
Thank you Alpha! So glad you enjoyed it!
I had asked before how u tape Arlo s ears it could be useful for many of us and by the way Arlos getting big and muscular yet cute
If anyone needs help with ear cropping , and taping you can join this facebook group. facebook.com/groups/1523214807972444/ has a ton of resources and videos.
Yeah I am working through that at the moment. Just in the process of figuring out how to best go about that topic. I agree with the group that Ramon mentioned. I'm a member there too, it's a good resource. I plan to make my own resource on ear posting in the future but I'm not sure how it's going to look in the end. I might have to host the video off RUclips and on my website instead, for various reasons I won't get into at the moment. Sign up for the newsletter on my site so you'll get a heads up with that (www.dobermanplanet.com/newsletter).
But I've definitely heard you and I'm working on it! For now, if you're curious, Arlo is using the zip tie ear posting method that uses "Torbot" surgical cement to hold things in place. If you google it, you should see more about this method.
Arlo has such a beautiful head! Really wish I had a Dobe. Getting a puppy has been put on hold during these crazy times. Hopefully by the fall! Awesome informative video! I looked into that DNA testing, and actually shared your video to a bunch friends about that DNA test you did! I'll definitely be doing that to my next dobe!
This would be so helpful! The way you tape his ears is different than anyone else I’ve ever seen and it looks like it’s the most comfortable/least clunky version I’ve come across!
@@ARBerihuete So cruel
Thank you so much for your content
I live I Australia and am deciding to get an American doberman and you have helped me a lot to decide if I should or not
I so dislike the stereotype that I get from reaction of others who I meet or know personally who hear I have a Dobie🤔. The media is one reason for blame. Movies and commercials have portrayed them as vicious when in fact they are the sweetest fun loving puppies❤️❤️
Totally agree Denise!
Its the 80s specifically I think that gave them the bad names in movies and TV. ooh so vicious. My last Dobe was the biggest lover and really a chicken. Amazing loyalty though, was my shadow. People who barely knew me would see us together and say "wow that dog really loves you". I got that several times, was weird. But IMO the best dog in the world. I've had 3 and planning to get a fourth but has taken years to get over my last girl, had her for 13 years. Broke my heart when the time came and she left.
Love all your videos! How do you post Arlo's ear? The posts seem more discreet than most I've seen; would love a tutorial or some tips we might be able to use on our pup!
Been really thinking about getting a Doberman pup been watching a lot of your videos lately very informative, watching from SC
Thanks for making this video. When I'm able to, I want to get a dog of my own and after researching a few different breeds the one I finally decided on is a Doberman. So now I'm trying to do as much research on Dobermans as I can.
Hey John. Great videos thanks. I've had three dobies and plan to get another when Lockdown is over. This is great advice for any Dobie owner. I would add that dobies love routine, and they also take things very personally. The teenage period can be tough, but you"ll have a fantastic dog - a loyal and loving best buddy.
Great advice and very true! Thank you for posting this. So glad you enjoyed the video!
I needed this video. Dobermans are my favorite dog breed. I've never owned a dog but have been doing a ton of research. I'm glad I found this channel
Great video! I have a 20 month old Doberman, and he is the first dog I've ever owned. My husband had dogs before, but they were never really trained, so needless to say it really didn't matter that he had dogs previously. My dog constantly gets compliments on his good demeanor and behavior, and that is because I put in the time and energy to train him from day 1. If you are willing to do the work, a doberman can be a great first dog! I would also add to what you said in the video, that I do think certain types of people in general do better than others with dobermans. You cannot be afraid to correct them and then show them the proper behavior. You must be willing to speak to them sternly when they misbehave, because otherwise they won't listen to you. People that aren't interested in correcting bad behavior and training their dog, should not get a doberman as a first, second, or twentieth dog. But if you have the will and commitment to do the training work, you will do just fine even if it is your first dog.
My dad (has never owned a dog) insisted on getting a Doberman as our first dog since he loves them so much. We are binging your videos to get tips before we pick up our puppy! 🤗
I got my girl after about a year of wanting a dog, alway had dogs growing up and wanted my own. That first year was rough, she was dominant and nippy all the time. But she was also the most loving and sweet dog id ever met. Once I improved my training skill and applied them to her she calmed down massively and now only nips when you encourage her (playfully) and she knows no means exactly that, she does still enjoy it though and she's two and a half. Also we noticed once she had her first period about age one she calmed down a lot. Now she's honestly the most amazing dog ever, she loves cuddles and get into bed with you under the covers with her head on the pillow 😂. She's also naturally protective but not aggressively so, once I took her a walk at 1 in the morning as I couldn't sleep and I was being followed by two thugs on a big field, you couldn't see the dog as she was running round. She must have spotted them following me as she then started running round me getting closer until they were about 5 meters away then she jumps between me and them and barks and growls like a beast, she even scared me a bit, and they ran away. That was just plain natural instinct and god know what would have happened if she hadn't been there, she could have save my life. Lovely dogs once they mature.
Such good advice! I wish more people would do some research on the breed they want before jumping in. I thought long and hard (about a year) before getting a Jack Russell. Another breed I feel is not for first time dog owners. I actually ended up with my puppy's sister. The lady that bought her decided at 7 mos old this dog wasn't for her. She was disappointed that her beautiful puppy wasn't like the ones on TV. The breeder called me because he knew I wanted to get a second dog. Luckily the two got along and I had them both for 14 years before they passed on. I have always loved Dobermans so here I am, thinking long and hard about getting one! Thank you for this video.
Omg arlo is growing so fast! Congratulations 👏🏼❤️
I watched this video 6 months ago and bought a Doberman . Now he is 5 months old . Thanks to your videos It's been really easy raising him even though he is my first dog !
Getting my female tomorrow. Cant wait. Thank you so much for all the tips and tricks. Love the videos buds. Keep them coming
How is it going
You really did encourage me, I'm going to get my dobbie puppy next week❤, Love from INDIA you really inspire🤝.
Thanks needed that info!!!! Ur videos
Are the best.....👍
Probably best intro ever!! I can't get the Doberman barking in slow motion out my head! oh god I'm gonna have nightmares tonight.
Thank you so much for this video!!!!! I know that a Doberman is the right fit for me but this is very helpful.
So glad I could help! You're very welcome Hailey, thank you for taking a minute to leave this comment, much appreciated!
Thank you so much. I will remember this for my Siberian Husky
Love your Voice. Keep up the Good work.💪🏼
You are doing a great work man...by giving us valuable information about this breed... it's my favourite one...but please express in some detail .. about how to metal stimulate them...?
You're the best man! I had many doubts about the breed but you've convinced me!
So glad! Thank you so much for checking out the video.
My first dobie Drake just turned 6 and I still reinforce training everyday. Everyone is so surprised what a well behaved and gentle dog he is. This training has paid off when I rescued my second, Lexi, at 7 months. She is now 4 yrs and has learned well from Drake. It doesn't matter what breed you have, you have to put the time and effort in to having a great dog. Currently on the search for #3. I love my fur babies.
Happy Mothers Day to all the dobie moms.
Really like your channel I got a Doberman thanks to you and she is the most loving dog I've ever had
Thank you King 🤴🏻, I feel a lot better now about owning a Doberman.
Finally convinced wifey to get one when we get the house. I am excited and cant wait to start training and socializing one.
Thank you your video is going to help me in future
I just got a Doberman and I am so happy I found your RUclips page! I’m watching all your videos I can’t find the one you have for the puppy biting I want to make sure I get that down since I do also have a 5 month old baby
No problem! So glad you're enjoying the videos! Here you go! ruclips.net/video/nk3rXqEpBYI/видео.html
Thanks for all you do!
John, thanks a lot for doing this video trying to break the bad stigma of Dobermans for first time owners. I've seen many other types of breeds and mix bred dogs so badly behaving because of poor or complete lack of training from the owners. It's not about the breed, it's about the owners. As responsible dog owners we should all put the time to train them and make them successful in the human world. No bad dogs!
Thanks for the tips! I have my Doberman coming next month! Can’t freakin wait!
Update even though no one cares lmao I got another one and doing great
I am gonna get a Doberman for a first dog and this channel is really helping
Great video, thank you. I'm planning on adopting a pup from a buddy of mine when his dog delivers.
It's gonna be a lot of work, and a lot of fun, but at the end of the day, I want a best friend and a loyal, loving companion.
Thank you so much for this. Thank you for what you do. I got the supply recomendations I needed from your website and my Doberman pup "Anubyss" is a happy confident little man. I can handle all the moving parts head on and learning to be more adaptable, patient , and structured. Its kind of like he's training me. Thank you for all of your help.
Great video! I have been living with a dog (parson russell terrier, in US working russell terrier) with problem behaviors 15 years ago. Im now thinking about getting a Doberman.
Arlo has really take a stretch. Great information and a beautiful dog!
Thanks for your advice, I will get my Doberman in two weeks time 👍
Thanks for the tips
I love your channel. I fostered a Doberman puppy for two weeks but have the option to adopt. I love her but I won’t adopt because she’s just too much rn especially since I’m going through Graduate school, and helping my mom with he stage 4 cancer as she is on her final stages with beating that. I listened and watch every video of yours and I know in the future after my life calms down a Doberman is the dog for me. I really appreciate all of your tips.
My first Dobermann puppy arrived 5 days ago... after months spent seeing all your video I was sure to be ready.... but now I’m going to gave up.... this video give me courage!!! Thank you so much!!!
Hang in there Margherita! When that maturity kicks in it's like you have a different dog. And if you were consistent with your training during the touch times your dog will be far better than you're even picturing.
Hang in there . Believe me in a few months you will realize what a special and amazing dog you have in your home
Very good clear tips thank you sir
Hi I’ve recently come across your channel, I love it and I’ve been binging! I’m thinking about purchasing a Doberman. I love them and had one when I was younger. But again after a year my dad gave him up as he found him hard to manage. If he had seen this video we would of probably still had him. My question is though, do they require large homes? My family house was big with a huge garden, however my current home is a lot smaller. Are smaller homes not ideal for Doberman’s ?
Hey. My girlfriend and I are huge fans of your page & you definitely inspire us and help keep us motivated. We were wondering if you had any advice on how to teach him to walk, how to stop barking on command, and learning to go down the stairs.
Good job man, Arlo is looking fantastic. I say it every time, but he really is absolutely adorable. My female Frieda is 3 now. I can remember that for her the 6 month until about 10 month window was very difficult. Her energy level started to really ramp up and her interest in the environment vs interest in me started to really polarize. This was a tough time for me to deal with, especially when taking her out for a daily walks. She just wanted to play play play. We got through it and she still is a real "player". This was the most difficult period for me to get through with her...
Hey man i watched all your videos and just got my first dobey 2 days ago! hes SOOO smart its crazy. only 7 weeks and already alerting me to go potty and knows come and plays fetch
That's awesome! Congratulations! Yeah their intelligence STILL surprises me all the time. You'd think I'd be used to it by now. Haha.
Your videos are always right on time. We finally brought home our Doberman puppy yesterday! I’m exhausted after the first night, but he did pretty well. Lol.
First week is crazy lol I miss my baby being little 😭 take lots of pictures !
Seriously perfect timing on this video! We have had our female Doberman at home for 1 week now. She is beginning to settle in and has been doing pretty good (not perfect but that's ok) with sitting, staying, potty training but is really getting into the nipping/biting phase. We are working through it. When isolating as a consequence, do you have any advice on isolating to a small fenced part of the house, or just trying to walk away (she follows and doesn't understand the consequence)? Also, we really could use some advice on taping ears! The products and how to. She keeps wiggling hers loose and I don't want to hurt her by using the wrong products. Thanks for all you do!!!
My doberman Stella turned 5 today, she is the love of my life, everywhere we go people note how well behaved she is, no tricks just manners. They are such sensitive and intuitive dogs. I'll never have another breed. They are perfect but not for everybody! I would not recommend them as a first dog. First dog owners who want a big dog are better off with a lab type. Dobermans are an intermediate level dog. Love your videos! Waiting on my DNA health test coming next week!
Thanks for the commend Eden, and the kind words! That's exciting you are getting your dog tested! I'm sure it'll all be good, but really interesting to know stuff!
There was no RUclips when Ginger joined us. Amazing Kimbertal Doberman from 1999. Love all these dogs!
Dog has to wonder "why does my master keep sitting around talking to himself all the time?"
If a dog is that smart then it can probably realize its for a video
@@tres-2b299 they probably don’t know what a video is..
@@tres-2b299 no
😂😂😂
can you make a video on tips on socializing during quarantine please!
Thank you for your videos.... ive been watching them religiously lol. I have always had dogs throughout my life. From bulldogs to neopolitan mastiffs to Rottweilers. They have always been family dogs. Now that I am 30 yrs old its time for me to get a dog of my own and I have always wanted a doberman. I love them and think they are the perfect dog. You have given me so much I formation and material to think about before I make my purchase. Im planning on getting one maybe in about a year or so... again.. thank you for taking the time to do the research and make these videos for people like me
