| Thanks Big thanks to all. I found out what I needed to know. I did not buy a show dog. I knew that. She comes from a long line of Mississippi farm dogs. I had the pleasure of going and seeing them work, and home with the children.
Sasha trains on the weekend with me at homeland defense training center. She can be 50 feet away from gun fire and be taking a nap. Unless I am at work she is with me. While I am at work she takes care of my wife at home in a wheelchair.
Dobermans are very rare around here. I get told how good looking she is all the time. But I never have had plans to breed her. I am far too selfish with my time. I have had a few people with very large males ask if I would like to.. I told them both nicely if I had wanted a Great Dane I would have bought one.
I did enjoy reading all the responses I got. Thanks again !
