Ha ha that was awesome. I like when they pass the team of Husky's and the Husky's look at them like whooowhat???

I love seeing Dobermann's doing non-traditional Dobermann sports.

Very cool - I just hope they don't have to live outside like you see the husky sled dogs.

Darkevs · 12-02-2012, 10:33 AM

Very Cool!!

one of my pups Jinx goes skijoring and just loves it!

Ahalvorsen · 12-02-2012, 10:43 AM

That's is so cool! I love seeing how versatile this breed is!

It's sad to see that people in this forum always look to say something negative about somebody. Especially about people they know nothing about! This place will never change

You can just imagine the huskies thinking "WTF!".

Burns · 12-02-2012, 12:40 PM

That's awesome! My first thought is that they would be cold, but I suppose you work up a sweat pulling a big sled around! Cool to see

I always thought Hans would love this. He's a russian boy that LOVES snow. The one time it snowed here enough to sled, I put his harness on and he pulled the kids back up the hill. They went faster going up then they did going down.

GingerGunlock · 12-02-2012, 02:07 PM

That was a neat video!

It was also kind of funny that the Doberman team was 4 dogs...some of the other teams you saw were 6!

Asmit · 12-02-2012, 02:08 PM

That's awesome! I'm sure it took a lot of hard work and dedication from the dog's owners to train them to do that as well as condition them for it. It amazes me what this breed can accomplish physically.

Oh, and I highly doubt the dogs are "cold". Even if I go for a run in the middle of winter, I end up in my shorts and a t-shirt and sweating. Most of the time, us humans are more sensitive for our dogs than we need to be.

Really???? How is that possibly negative? It wasn't meant to be - just from what I understand *most* sled dogs live outside in a dog yard chained up.

Coco Loco · 12-04-2012, 12:29 PM

Oh wow I love that. It's funny I always wanted to try dogsledding. I guess I just need to get 3 more dobes for my team. Well maybe 4 because Coco is a princess and will want to ride with me in the sled!

Hooligan · 12-04-2012, 12:36 PM

Fantastic! Thanks so much for posting.

**dobegal** · 12-04-2012, 12:59 PM

that was cool

Maybe you can look into skijoring. Easier than sledding when you only have one dog.

dobienut · 12-04-2012, 03:41 PM

thank you for shaing that i really enjoyed the video, may pam can make the some team cozy coat uniforms

LindaH · 12-04-2012, 04:12 PM

Wow, just wow!!! Glad this got bumped as I missed it when first posted.

I watched another one is this series. The one where the camera is on the sled. Different race but they pass two other sled teams in it, too.

The huskies beat them out of the gate, but the dobermans pass them after a bit.

Hmmm, don't know why all the question marks, but it pulls the video up.

Yes, he also does conformation with them also, they all have CHs, one is a Russian Grand Ch, at least 1 has a IPO 1 and ztp

tomcat · 12-04-2012, 04:47 PM

That was the best too cool and it looked cold dobes were way faster than the huskies

Seriously...wow, that is amazing!!!

Noticed all their ears were cropped, so figured he didn't scimp on their care. With what little could be seen of them when they stopped in the last race, it looked like they were well built dobermans, but I never dreamed any had show and working titles. What a nice surprise!!!

Again, thank you for sharing this with us, Feverhaus.
