      Exactly........ if you move to Alaska..... they are just as happy there, as long as the owner or family is there. Extremely social animal, needs to be part of the family and inside home.
      Having said that, no they don’t do well outside in cold for hours at a time, just enough to get exercise.

    Best dog I've EVER had was a red Doberman that I rescued from a cruel owner as a puppy! I don't even classify her as a dog - she was truly my best friend. And so gentle & protective of our son when he was little! She was over 100 pounds of muscle & love. And so funny, with an actual sense of humor. 😊 She's been gone more than 25 years and I still think of her almost every day.

    People commenting over your lack of "control" over the dog for hurting your girlfriend don't really understand the power of these animals and how they can hurt without remotely meaning to. My mother's doberman opened a gash on my brow (from which I bled profusely) not with malice, but because I was getting a bit too cheeky with him and he raised his head into mine. We were playing and I got hurt. These are exceptionally powerful animals even for their size. It never once occurred to me to blame the dog for it, or think it was a failure of training.

My mom, a large woman, was clipped by our border collie/lab who was doing zoomies and misjudged the distance and sent her flying backwards. I have a long scar on my leg from a dewclaw scratch that my skin didn't heal properly. I've tripped over my dogs sooooo many times, especially the black ones that I don't see in the dark. Accidents happen!

    Yep, dobies really like their people. Always wants to be around them. Always complaining when they can't get attention. Bullying their way onto couches. Sleeping on beds they aren't supposed to. Always in your face suffocating you! Good bye personal space!
    Then when they leave you, you realize that it was you who is bonded to them.
    I, for some reason, still think I'm gonna see my dobies, who have passed, come running around the corner with their goofy tongue lolling grins everyday.
    If you are on the fence about getting a dobie, be careful. The depth of attachment to the dog will be indescribable.

      My dobie is SUPER possessive. I'm a paraplegic and in a wheelchair. When my wife bends down to hug me my dobie, Akela, barks, jumps on her and wedges her way in between us. She sleeps in our bed with us and loves to jump up on my lap.....well, my lap, my stomach and my chest, and she sleeps on me. She hates to be alone. She knows whenever we're getting ready to leave and she starts whining before we ever leave. She's funny. Doberman's are the 5th smartest breed and, in my opinion, they are the most beautiful and majestic breed on the planet......bar none!!!!! That being said, I have owned 4 dobies, all were European dobermans so they were all larger than the "average" American doberman. The first was absolutely massive, close to 120lbs so I would LOVE to see a 140lb doberman that wasn't fat. I was in the Army at the time and bought him from a guy who had just got back from Germany where he bought this doberman, Zeus. I'm not saying it's not possible to have a 140lb doberman that's not overweight just VERY rare at best. I guess I'm from Missouri.....Show Me. I will say this, many doberman's don't look fat if compared to other dogs because they go straight back from their ribs to their hindquarters but dobermans are part greyhound and are supposed to have very slender waists. They may not look fat but if they don't trim down behind their ribs they are fatter than they are supposed to be.

      a b I lost my first Dobie at 16 years of age back in 2010 and that loss *never* left me. Dutchess was literally the best dog I was ever blessed to have in my life. Fast forward to December 20th 2016, I rescued a 4 year old female named Roxy she was abused and bred to exhaustion by an Amish puppy mill.
      When I went to the shelter they said they had one of the two available for adoption and would I like to meet her. I said yes and they went back and let her out and I got down on the ground and Roxy rounded the corner and ran straight to me and gave me a big wet kiss! It was meant to be!
      Flash forward four months and she has settled in so well! every day she comes out her shell more and more and it just puts my soul at ease and makes me smile.
      She is stuck to my hip and when I move she's my shadow. I swear shes like Dutchess reincarnated. Such a gentle soul and such a good girl!
      No doubt about it, Dobermans for life!

    I had a doberman/rottweiler mix as a kid. We had Emma outside often when the weather was nice, and she actually really enjoyed it. She LOVED to play with snow, too. We'd toss handfuls of snow to her and she'd eat it middair. But it depends on the dog, and she was a mix. Very powerful dog, fiercely protective, but also super tolerant and great with children.

  • @heidiedgely9238

    Thank you for your honesty, people need to be aware of these facts. Dobermanns are often called "the human dog,",and it's true, they are aware of human emotions and needs, and reciprocate in kind. The more you put into them the more you get out. They don't need to be shouted at when training , they can be trained using positive reinforcement, patience and understanding . Training is very very important, as they can be strong willed and stubborn and can get bored easily, training keeps them on their toes, the mental discipline developers so that they can make the correct decisions for themselves , and they can anticipate what you expect of them.They don't like to be ignored and make great family members.
    I have two and they are the best dogs, so faithful, kind and loving .
    The main disease to look out for in Europe and the U.K. now is DCM, (Dilated Cardio myopathy), it is a heart disease which is a killer,. When choosing a breeder please make sure that the breeder tests for Dcm, von wilderbrands disease and wobblers syndrome. I cannot stress this , enough, as so many uk dogs are dying young of Dcm and it's heartbreaking .
    Dobermanns are such special dogs, and are not suitable for time poor people, they require good amounts of exercise and love, but if you have the time and patience and a good sense of humour, they are the best dogs in the world.

I noticed him looking round every now and again as if no matter what trick he is doing, he is always in guard mode. There is no doubt you have got a great Dobe there! We trained ours by using a gun dog whistle and it works a treat, they are the smartest dogs on the planet. Sadly all of my Dobes are gone now, however, watching your video has made me happy and sad at the same time. I wish I could get another one, but, I feel I am too old now as I am nearly 65.

      I wonder about the age thing too. I am 47 now. I will have another dog at some point, but I wonder at what age it is a disservice to the dog because my activity level won't be very high? Like when iis it no longer "fair" to get a new puppy? I guess you can always rescue a senior dog and maybe get one that is content laying around in it's golden years, but then you will only have a year or two with the pup before it'll probably pass. I just wonder what age should be the cut off for the human to consider a new pup (plus you have to consider if you'll be around their whole life or if they will need possible alternate arrangements made in the event of YOUR death).

    When I had mine she was just about a 18 months old. I was talking with friends and not paying attention to her. She came up and pinched me in my inner thigh while I was sitting an a tables, and gave me a blood blister. I laughed, since as you say they are so smart, she got my attention a
    Right. Anyway, that pinching I found was more of a mischievous side to her personality than not liking someone. Only once she didn’t like someone and really wanted to bite him. I found out years later the man was a criminal and she sensed it. Amazing dogs. I won two huskies, high energy and love cold of course. Very strong dogs also and also very intelligent, but more stubborn so very hard to train. Dobermans are amazing very easy to train. I’ll get another one some day. I love the breed. But like any dog ya gotta pay close attention to them,they are all unpredictable.
    My husky loves kids like most Dobermans, and similar accident happen what my husky decided to jump up on a wall next to my neighbors 2 year old. The lease caught the girl by the neck and knocked her head first into the side of the wall. Since kids are flexible she was actually fine. But she cried so much. The little girl is almost 4 now and loves the husky so much. They are inseparable now. But again working class dogs are strong, you have to respect that.

      To add to this without "editing". I've had inside dogs who wouldn't survive a day outside and I've had outside dogs you couldn't convince with the best steak/treat in the world, to come inside. Same with cats. Not everyone and everything is the same. If they were life would be so boring. All dogs are different (most bred to be so) just like all humans are different. The differences and acceptance of those differences (barring victimization) are what help you grow as a human and, if you're a person who enjoys the company of domesticated animals, they will grow with you. Only sad part is if all goes according to your plan those buddies won't make the entire trip with you... but they'll make up for the grieving you'll endure with the impact they had during their life. Love and respect all people and creatures. We share this world.

    Had three as a kid, found a predominantly dobie mix a couple of months ago. They are INCREDIBLY intelligent, loving, loyal and STUBBORN as hell. The second day I brought Jack home (named after Jack Skellington from Nightmare Before Xmas because all I saw were bones and he's typical dobie black), I had to buy a dog food container. I left for work, came home to find the container in the middle of the living room and the lid was UNSCREWED. Teeth marks all around the lid where he had stubbornly unscrewed the lid, HOLES THROUGH some of it but the scoop was unmarked, laying next to the container. It's almost like he KNEW he didn't have to bite it, just get it out of his way.
    Walking Jack, he'll pull (not really "pull" but more like tug on the leash letting me know he wants to go that way) towards PEOPLE but only for head/butt scritching. He's never once pulled me towards cats, ducks, squirrels, iguanas or frogs/toads. He is an AMAZINGLY chill dog, eager to learn but happy to sit next to and nudge me every now and then for some loving. I'm in a 1/1 and it's PACKED FULL(dad just passed so lots of boxes and sorting in all the kids' apartments), Jack is almost fully grown and has no problem finding "his space" amidst the chaos.

Second, he is in his pajamas. Third, the dog gave his girlfriend brain damage. I can't wait to see what he has to say next!

      Finished. I really like how smart the dog is and I really liked how he stayed outside until you gave hime the command to come inside. I agree with the other commenter that the dog shouldn't be nipping people in the butt. I can understand a dog retaliating when a person won't leave them alone but to go after a person when they aren't doing anything wrong isn't acceptable. Thank you for the video, though. It was enjoyable to watch.

      I can run WITH him, just not FROM him,, even if were playing, he plays too ruff. I correct him, but the previous owner had a teenage boy who would play rough with him as a puppy. He is improving about this, but he still doesnt like anyone to run FROM him.

I don't let him rough house with my boys, or even see them wrestle. He tries to 'correct' them and it's not good. His sister is the Alpha, and we raised her, and she has a beautiful temperament. They're so smart a breed, I bet he'll learn.

      Cynthia - agreed. Everyone always said I was "too mean" (i.e. too discipline: didn't let her on furniture, didn't let her on bed, didn't let her jump up or mouth things, etc) to my girl for not allowing slight bad behaviors and correcting them on the spot. I always pointed out to them that these are willful dogs who, if given an inch, will take it and push for more, and that the entire reason they liked her and enjoyed me bringing her around was because I made sure she always knew I was the alpha and so they weren't dealing with an unruly large dog.

  • @claytonbruner1808

    Great video that represents the breed very accurately and what an amazing animal. My Dobie was an incredible dog. He was a 92lb. athlete in his prime, could shake hands with whichever paw you asked for (left or right), loved children and had the most inane sense of empathy I've ever seen in a pet. He could read my emotions at all times.
    Thanks again for the video. It brought back some great memories!

    He is absolutely gorgeous! I had a female dobie for nearly 16.5 years (yes that's a long time for Dobies) and was heart broken when she passed. I held off for a few years and just around Christmas my local no kill shelter rescued a female from a puppy mill and I was able to rescue her. Love her to pieces and she is coming out of her shell, she had a hard first four years but those days are long gone! Doberman lover forever!

We should breed her but we won’t. She’s the one. I thought I knew what I was getting into. I knew I couldn’t get one until I wasn’t going into my teaching job daily. They are amazingly attached to their families...they will die without that attachment. This guy’s cautionary video should be required watching for anyone considering a Doberman Pinscher. :-)

    I find it amazing how the Doberman is the ONLY guard dog bred to protect people. Other guard dogs were bred to protect farm animals or fight off wild animals, etc. I will always see Dobermans as #1. My family has a history of owning them, now I have my own (& she DEFINES velcro dog). :3

    I rescued my doberman from the streets in Mexico. She was so skinny and afraid she tried to bite everytime i reached toward her. After a few months of gentle care and regular feedings, she has become the sweetest dog and so very attached to me. She would never attack anyone unless I told her to, then look out. She is a wonderful dog. Never had one before but I think I've found my breed for life now.

When ever he is thirsty he will grab his water bowl and drag it to me. Also he has learned to open our door and close it. Really cute dog and listens really well. Also many people misunderstand Dobermans. They think of Doberman of big scary dogs that want to kill them but they are really cute and loving and would do anything for its owner.

    My 3 year Goliath sized female Dobbie bonded with me the day we got her (she was 2). I agree that Dobermans are the smartest dogs (instead of 5th) and having the velcro Dobbie is perfect for me (I have gran mal and petite seizures) I give my Josie love, attention, food, water, etc. & she gives me not only emotional & medical support, but love & protection. Josie learns best by praise (treats distract her).

    • @JoeyFerrisMusic

My last one died about 10 months ago and I've grieved for her so long. You are definitely right, they are warm blooded and cannot take cold weather. They have to be inside with the family. I'd love to have another one some day. Living alone, they sure made me feel safe. No one in their right mind would go in on a big Doberman. They are very protective of their family AND their property...I like that. Thanks for letting us see your baby, loved his tricks. Since he will shake, teach him to "high five" too...that's funny.

    No dog wants to live alone in the elements outside. They're social animals and need to be with their pack, even if everyone in their pack walks on two legs. He'd probably be OK if you lived in the kennel with him but certainly not alone, tain't natural.

    • @DiffuseSachverhalte
      @DiffuseSachverhalte Před 7 lety +7

      MmeDefarge (Expose NYC Meth Labs) some dog breeds are more okay with being on their own than others, some even prefer it kinda.
      but Dobermanns usually seek the attention of a family, entertainment, company more than (some) other breeds.
      so he kinda got a point there

    @hidebehind2604 Před 5 lety +6

    Am an old fart that has owned many dogs through the years and there is but two or three that realy stood out, one being a Dobie my granddaughter named Foof
    I honestly believe all dogs go to heaven while most humans go to hell.
    The reason I think that way comes from observation of life, one where a dog will love you through hell and high water and most humans are so busy loving themselves they are about as trustworthy as a pit viper on a warm day.
    Not one dog companion now gone has left a bitter memory, and I wish like hell I could say same about humans I've read about, and known.
    Foot holds a high place in those memories, a Dobie that always let you know he loved not just you but life itself.
    All dogs are only reflections of those alphas who "Own Them", not as companions but more on Master Slave level, and Dobies are no different.
    There is a world of differences between tricks and just playtime antics, tricks can sometimes demean a dog, make them clowns, but becoming a companion means each treating other with respect.
    A Dobie is a Dobie, their own traits, not a damn dress up doll poodle or as toys for children from 10 to 90 years old, give them respect and love, forgive their quirky nature and they will forgive yours.
    Yes my dogs left many holes in my heart but I think I would of had a hard heart without them.
    A hug has a special, could say spiritual, property if given through love, so hug that Dobie now and then, they know what it means.

She was running in yard similar to your Dobermann, we called it running nascar! I went to hug her as I'd done many times and 1st time she reared up got me in the forehead. Wow what a hit! I remember walking into the house yelling! Jewel didn't do it on purpose. I Bled pretty good and Jewel wouldn't leave my side:) Only got 6.5 yrs with her.

      Yes, they do that all the time. I had a black one and a red one, both always seem to purposely love plopping their butt on me.

    We had to put our doberman down this past December, he was 11 1/2 years old... he ran in snow and loved it.. we miss him dearly.. We will be getting another one soon. They are great dogs but they are not for everyone.

      marko smedley mine takes my stuff, like shirts and jeans to sleep on. She also covets my food (I can tell because she uses that laser like dobie-vision on me when I'm eating). She, too, is a pain.

      Buster was a dark red..mahogany..with amber eyes. He had a way of looking at you that made you want to cry. He was such a pain in the ass..I was forever sweeping up his muddy paw tracks. He would go out and play in the full ditches or take a swim in the pond and want to jump on my bed and take a nap...yes he was a huge pain in the ass..and I will miss him all of my life. He was funny, gorgeous, smart, loving, sensitive , loyal, and the best dog ever..he was smarter then some people I know. He was not the easiest dog to live with for two old folks..but we will miss him always.

    my dad used to have one, it used to guard the whole street opposite his workshop. The dog used to keep all the dodgy salesmen away from the old peoples homes who lived in the street, and they loved him for it, he used to walk up and down the street and the old people used to put out scraps for him.

    Hi Joey. I'm subscribed to your channel and love your videos. I also have a Dobie. Her name is Talia and she is a year and a half old. She is my medical alert and mobility service dog. She is an incredibly wonderful service dog and is my life line and is my best friend. Dobies are not one of the "Fab Four" (the preferred breeds) for service dog work but you couldn't ask for a smarter, better, more loving, devoted partner. She is perfect in every way. Thank you for continuing to share you and your dog's story.❤

    • @JoeyFerrisMusic
      @JoeyFerrisMusic  Před 7 lety +60

      A friend showed up at my home with him. He was about 1 year old and we had no idea about the needs of a doberman. My friend said he could no longer care for him so we agreed to take him. It was summer and I wasnt thrilled about the idea of a large dog in the house. I made this video so others could learn things that we learned the hard way.

    • @misskim1369

      I learned to trust my dog, if my doberman doesn't like you, you WILL NOT be in my home. If a dog doesn't like someone there's a reason for that. They have great senses. My last doberman didn't like one certain individual and I later found out he was in my home to "spy" on me by police. Before I get all the stupid crap, they DID NOT find what they thought they were going to find. I wasn't dealing drugs. I just had strippers around and the police figured I was dealing but like I said, I wasn't dealing any drugs. The point is, my dog knew that individual was there to do me harm and she HATED him. He was the only person she hated like that and I found out why later. I now trust my dog implicitly.

    This guy's a psycho, "she had a little bit of brain damage..." he says with a glint in his eye, proud as can be that his Beast could inflict that kind of damage *casually*. Lot's of showing off Stupid Pet Tricks, yet he confesses the dog nips people around him at will, presumably when he is not causing brain damage..
    Beautiful dog in the hands of a uniquely unqualified owner.

    • @JoeyFerrisMusic

      My girlfriend basically rescued him from a bad situation, he is her dog, he had bad habits that we have been working to correct. Im not proud of the bad habits, but I am proud of his progress and of our hard work learning about this breed.

    • @martonburg
      @martonburg Před 5 lety +4

      As you know little about this breed, you should state that fact. A Dobermann does not have an undercoat, just one layer of fur, therefore should NEVER be kept outside. That is the reason they feel the cold. Nobody should take on a Dobermann until they have done some research as to their needs, habits and temperament. They are a "people" dog, and need human company to be happy. They are good with children, and will look after all members of their family and any other pets you may have. One other fact.........they hate the rain and won't go outside if it is raining. In the U.S, the so called " white" Dobermann is a definate no no, being the highest number within the breed to find themselves dumped on the roadside, due to their intolerance of sun, which brings them out in sores, causes swollen and runny eyes plus servere sunburn.
      The Dobermanns of the present time show little resemblance to the original Dobes, developed by Karl Frederick Louis Dobermann, were developed by Dobermann to be personal protection dogs, they were a sort stocky dog with cropped ears and a docked tail. The ears and tail were altered to reduce the chance of the dog being grabbed if in an attack mode, also the very short coat made it difficult to grab hold of the dog. Mr Dobermann was a debt collector,and also a tax collector, along with his other jobs of running the local dog pound and a night watchman.This gave him a good choice of breeds to develope the Dobermannn dog.
      If you have children, and you are thinking of taking on a rescue dog, do not consider it if the dog's past history is not available, he/she may of ended up in rescue after a biting episode, far safer to buy from a good breeder that breeds for good temperament.
      Dobermann's come in three colors, Black, Brown, and A bluey fawn color. As stated earlier, there is a so called white, which is actually a cream color, but comes with extreme health problems with vet fees that can be enormous!
      The breed is easy to train, but needs firm control, they must be taught the pecking order of their new home.

    God he's absolutely gorgeous. I miss my dobies so much. They lived until 14 and 15 years old. Lexi was a black and tan and Cody was red. They were the BEST dogs ive EVER had. They loved me and my girls to the end. They are so smart and so loyal even though they can be a little stubborn. This in my opinion is the best dog anyone could ever have. I am looking for a pup now. It's been 10 years and I'm totally ready. I think Im not mourning my loss as much and so ready for a new baby.

    can I ask why you'd get a animal who was meant to live in a pack and try to keep it outside all the time? they need to be with the pack and for an owned dog the pack is the family they live with.

      @jennarover7398 Před 7 lety +9

      I don't now about training because ours were trained when they were pups but, I have two dobermans and I do know they need a blanket. they love to be covered with a blanket and, they need a soft place to lay that supports their weight. You may want to get a bigger pillow that covers the whole bottom of the cage. ours just lay by our bed at night on their pillows. when they get really old, they have balance issues and, won't do well on stairs. just some things to think about. I think you are doing fine. just get rid of that kennel. also, when they get old, they like to pretend they can't hear sometimes. I usually reinforce commands with a snap of my fingers. Mine respond well to it. something you can try.

    Our Brandy was a major part of our Family and she stayed indoors with us and slept with our daughter or us or where ever she wanted. Brandy was a 120lb lap dog and very obedient and excellent judge of character, good and bad people. No Dobie's must have their human contact but they can be a bit stubborn at times. Now that said, they have on the average short life spans 7-8 years. If you have had a Dobie live past that, count your blessings. Our girl got tumors all over her body and skin disorder, allergies to grass ect. Her feet would bleed and she smelt like decaying flesh no matter how often she was bathed. I had to make that decision to put her down and I stayed with her until her heart stopped beating. Hardest thing I ever had to do, I still cry over it and miss her. Dobies are awesome.

    I have a 115lb Doberman, he's taught my sister's daughter how to walk. He's never bit anyone or "pinched" but...... I have also raised him with my German Rottweiler. He is my first Doberman and I am very impressed. I feed him taste of the wild salmon. Keeps the coat very nice and shiny. His name..... Maverick.
