| If you could change or add one thing about Dobermans If you had the ability to change or add one thing about Dobermans magically (LoL), what would it be? It can be anything, physical traits, temperament, etc. Don't say anything about health, because, taking away diseases like vWD, hyper thyroidism, wobbler's, dilated cardio myopathy, and hip dysplasia are things that we'd obviously all love to eradicate.
Me personally, I'd love if I could take away their male to male aggression.
What would you do?
JB.

| I'm with you on the male to male aggression. I would also remove the inability to drink water without making a puddle. And of course, add years to their lives.

| Would love it if they could form coherent sentences and let us know what they would change in humans. Would love to hear their thoughts on cropping & docking too.

| Okay, I look at my boy now and think I wouldn't change a thing. The male on male aggression thing would be a very good change. I get nervous that most of J's friends are males and wonder how long I have before I have to make him quit playing with his buddies, hopefully never. Oh, and this new smelly fettish of his. Yup, would change that.
Physically, they are perfect. |

One thing to change... yeah, I guess the male on male aggression. Although I don't know if I could handle training two goofballs like Red  So that, and wishing they lived longer. |
