  1. Doberman Puppy Corner
    Hi all! Have been poking around this forum among other resources for the past few months, and our boy Schumi is turning 12 weeks old in a couple of days! Bit of background, I grew up with Dobes in my family and finally fulfilling a dream by carrying the tradition on with my own. My girlfriend...

    There's this field I like to take my 5 month old to (not a dog park... just a fenced off field of grass). It's about 1.7km there, and 1.7km back. About 3.4km total. I guess that would be about 2.1 miles in total? Most of you seem to be American. We walk the one mile to the field, let him run...

    hello , I’m a first time Doberman owner. I am looking for advice for all stages of life. my puppy is 3 monthes old and I want to give her the best life possible. What are the best daily exercises I can do with my dog. I am a college student so a working sport wouldn’t be ideal for me. I know...

    I live in Atlanta and sometimes we have horrible weather like pouring down rain, not a normal drizzle, or even snow, like snowpocalypse. I was wondering if you guys have any thoughts on slat mill or carpet mills for dobermans? Which one do you think is better or prefer? Which companies are good...

    My dog just met with an accident and got injured. The physio showed a few exercises for my dog and strictly warned me to make sure that my dog does not overdo these exercise. It there any machine that keeps the count of each exercise ? I tried but I lost the count very often.

    I have seen lots of posts and forums regarding how much i should be exercising my puppy and sometimes i get worried that i am doing too much and worry of the effects it could have on his growth. My pup is 4 months old and average weight for his age, and we walk twice a day. We have a 5 minute...

    Hi everyone, Might be an easy question to answer but I’m a bit lost. Research suggests that you only exercise your puppy for 5mins for every month old they are. So if a pup is 3 months old, it should only get 15mins exercise. Here’s my question: is that guidance per day or per exercise slot...

    Hello there. I am a brand new 1st time dobe owner. I have a great little gentleman of a dobe and he is 14 weeks. His name is Bear. Here is my dilemma... I have been reading a lot from this forum to help guide me in what to do regarding training and care for Bear, and one thing I have seen is...

    Good morning DT! My almost 16 week old puppy has not received all of his puppy shots yet. I believe he still has one more round of Parvo boosters before he's complete, but he has had his rabies shot. Because the vets have told me that parvo has been running rampant in our town, I haven't risked...

    Greetings All, brand spanking-new member here with no dogs to my name - we have fish. I'm a lifelong asthmatic who's also a diehard (get it?) animal lover, and dog lover in particular, and to that end I've started down the road of allergy shots. I'm about 6 months into the treatment, am...

    Hi everyone, I'm looking for some help from dobie lovers for a semi-reluctant new dobie mom (my boyfriend's dog). I tend to gravitate toward large, lazy, little-effort-required sort of dogs, so a doberman is a new world for me. I'm having trouble adjusting. I've never had to train an animal...

    Happy Friday all, and very sorry in advance for the long post! So here is my doberlady’s story: Years ago, my parents got two doberpuppies from South Africa and brought them to Mozambique, where we live. I was explicitly against this as our previous dog had recently died and I knew that we were...

    I saw this article and I think every owner should read it. The idea is that there is a large environmental component to hip dysplasia and damage mainly occurs between birth and 8 wks of age. However, evidence of lameness in puppies around 4 mths old should always be seen by a Veterinarian with...

    Hello everyone! I am fairly new to this forum and was looking for a little bit of info :). I recently got a Red Female Doberman named Layla who is about 18 weeks today. The reason I am posting is because she weighed in at just about 25lbs and I was wondering if this was too light. She eats...
  16. Ear Cropping and Posting
    My puppy recently had his ears done and they look good. The vet seems to have done a great job. She told me that I need to restrict Zuma's exercise for 15 days. I didn't question it at the time but he gets really restless when he doesn't get a walk and play time outside. I'm supposed to keep him...

    My dobe is 8 years old and has always run with me. When he was young we'd go up to 7 miles because he wanted to, was a maniac and loved it. Lately he's telling me he's pooped around mile 2, should I not be running with him anymore??? He is in great health and the vet says he looks great for...
