Yes, when I am Queen Of The Universe this will happen. Of course it's completely unrealistic and never *will* happen, so I don't waste much time thinking about it.

Trying to buy a well bred dog of any breed is really a difficult thing to do for someone who knows very little about the breed, and the world of pure bred dogs in general.

On the positive side, there is so much more information out there for people to research............... and on the bad side, the slick bybers and commercial greeders know how to exploit peoples inexperience. It really burns my butt to see the prices these people ask for these dogs. They are in it for the money pure and simple. Lord knows they sure are not in it for the dogs.

Plenty of us started with a byb or commercially bred Doberman - I did. Once I knew how poor quality she was, I spayed her and loved her the rest of her life. Then I set out to do it the right way, but I learned a lot from that dog :-)

Boy that's for sure. I nearly choked when I saw that advertised.

For any of you reading this thread who don't know Von Wolf is a BYB of the worst sort--although he claims to have no ties to the albino breeders he has and certainly has bred Z list Dobes (Dobes with the potential for producing albino's--identified by their registration numbers which start out WZ....)

Not only does he have and breed Z Dobes but he lies about it to puppy buyers and when a few of them have discovered this has refused to talk to them at all.

Great bragging point for someone allegedly breeding "nice" Dobermans.

Mind you, and this is to anyone who has a Trinity Doberman--I'm sure that your own dog is entirely loveable, and very sweet--but the fact remains that this breeder is NOT a good breeder and would be regarded as a BYB by most Dobe folk.

you know, I find it very interesting that this person occasionally pops up with a link to some site or another - with advice to check it out. She has often popped up with sites for breeders that are often considered iffy.

Who is this Paige person?

Arrrgghhh.............. well knock me over the head............. I just saw the date that she originally posed this thread and it was 2 years ago............. I didn't even look at the date till just now!!

LOL, well, y'all certainly showed her.

OOPS! I guess we're getting all worked up for nothing.

Seriously though, I don't believe in pet quality dogs of any breed. I know that only one or two dogs out of the litter will have that special something, but the main goal is for all of them to be perfect. The betterment of the breed as a whole is the main purpose for any breed.

Yes, this is a year-old thread, but that is a great idea. Why not? We can start with DT itself being the platform. Even during my short stint here thus far, I've already read about lots of knowledgeable ppl giving great advice. What reputable breeder wouldn't want to be known as a "DT-approved breeder"?
