I've been lurking on these forums for quite a bit, and I decided it was high time to join. I don't have a Doberman, but I am absolutely in love with them, and I hope that in a few years I might be in a place where I can get one. In the meantime, I plan to educate myself as much as possible.
Haha I already know what my dream Dobe would be: a calm, black and rust girl. But I'm well aware that color and gender don't matter; it's temperament and breeding.
I also prefer a puppy over rescuing an adult. Not that I don't like rescuing, but, especially with breeds that have a lot of genetic diseases, I think it is very important to know what kind of background they come from. Then you sometimes have to deal with behavior problems, fear/aggression, etc and I'm not sure if I could handle that in a large dog. And the bond created when you raise a dog from puppyhood is unmatched. I still have quite a while to decide though.
Oh, and a quick question. Apparently I'm not allowed to mess around with my profile. Any idea when I'll be allowed to?
Thanks for any replies, and I hope to learn a lot about Dobes here!
