| I'm not on Cyberdobes, way too many agendas going on within that list for me..a pity, it was a GREAT list in the beginning.
Anyway, this brag was posted on another email list that I do subscribe to..it was mentioned the dog has gained 25 lbs. since he's been placed in his new home.
So right off the top I'd say the "proper care, training and conditioning of a doberman" begins with FEEDING THEM! And you're right, that ain't rocket science!
I don't blame the breeder for removing the dog from the home if this is true..however, I do blame the breeder for even allowing the situation to deteriorate to this degree. Keeping track of what's going on with your puppies is a "must do", and requesting pictures periodically isn't an unreasonable request. I did that with Razzle's breeder without even being asked to do so, and this was on top of the feedback she was getting about the condition of the puppy she placed with me through our common handler, friends, etc.
