Hello

I am the proud owner of Ruby, a red Doberman puppy. We can't figure out why the color is called red; she has similar coloration to a chocolate lab. She is 14 weeks old, and absolutely adorable.

My previous Dobe, Liesl, died suddenly in April and I was inconsolable. Now the house feels like a home again, although I will always miss my Liesl.

Hello and welcome from Ohio. I know what you mean about the color. Our first red girl was named Malley after a local candy (chocolate) store!

Well brown doberman makes much more sense! Even the eyes look like the eyes of chocolate labs -- a touch of yellow.

My first dobe was black and tan, with natural ears. She's in my avatar. My puppy's ears were already cropped, so I didn't get the chance to keep them natural.

Taping them has been an experience that I (and she) could do without.

Welcome from North Carolina! I'm so sorry you lost your girl in April. It's great that you opened your heart again so soon - can't wait to see photos of your brown Dobergirl!

Hi Dobiesk8r - Welcome from San Diego. I miss my Lisl, too - but she was my mom! And April was a bad month - that's when we also lost our guy, Alex, at 6 years old, to DCM. Shocking and devastating. Well, we now still have 2 black/rust, and 1 red/rust. I think red is appropriate, because chocolate Labs are really a brown color, but if you look at a red Dobe's coat in the sunlight, at least ours, the hairs have a real coppery glint. Willie, when he's not dusty, shines like a penny! Ah, taping... what a pain! Lois

Thanks for all the great welcomes from all over! I can't believe I hadn't found this site before.

Lolonurse, I'm so sorry about your mom and your Alex. I suspect DCM in my Liesl's death as well. She collapsed in our arms after a joyous run down at the stream with me and my son. She was ten years old, but in perfect health and got plenty of exercise. I tell myself that she died doing what she loved with her favorite people.

I do notice that in the sun Ruby's coat is quite reddish. I have some cute photos of her in all her headgear, like a canine Sears Tower. I shall be posting those as soon as I figure out how!
