I have a friend who has aquired a male Dobe about a year and half old, cropped ears, and docked tail really large dog, NICE!
He needs to find a home for him if anyone in the area is interested.:lol2:

 

[sam&macksmom]

Did she contact a reputable rescue yet to assist her? One that can properly screen homes and evaluate his temperament.

Also, if she purchased the dog from a breeder, did she contact the breeder about returning him?

 

[sandee396]

I am going to give them a phone number for a doberman rescue group in our area, this dog was tied up on on short leash in a yard,the people that owned him, lived in a apartment, and could not keep him,so this guy took him in,because he felt so sorry for the dog, he just had him neutered, but cannot keep him as he has 4 other dogs,so between me and my vet we are trying to find this dog a good home. He doesn't have any history on the dog, except that the people who owned him paid quite a lot for him.

I hope he finds a good home soon, thank you for helping him! Getting him into a good Dobermann rescue would be best for him, they're experts at finding good homes. The wrong type of person could be attracted by saying he really large.

has any of the 'owners' ever contacted the breeder of the dog? oooops, i see they do not know who the breeder is.

another poor unwanted dobie, so freakin' sad.

I hope a rescue will take him in and help him find his forever home.

Hugz to ya big guy!

I live in Southeast Missouri and have rescued 4 Dobies over the past 20 years. The King of our home, Jack, just passed February 21st of DCM and, although we are heartbroken and unable to even go in the family room, we might be willing to take this poor guy in. Sounds like he needs the "prince" treatment after what he's been through. What part of Central Illinois?

Contact me at [email protected] or through here.

Jacksdad
I sent you a e-mail, let me know if interested please

Has he been scanned for a microchip? If he is chipped, and happens to be from a good breeder, they'd want him back.

 

[triciakoontz]

This is a weird story. The owners lived in an apartment but had him tied in the yard?? Someone just took him? Does that mean they stole him?? Now he is potentially being adopted out through the internet (no home check, no rescue managing the process, no attempt to find the breeder)?? I certainly would not want a dog to suffer but who knows the actual story behind this dog? Is he socialized to people and other dogs? Is he neutered? If not, will he just be used for breeding?

Not a great set-up for a rehome it seems to me. Hoping this all works out okay for the dog.

 

[VZ-Doberman]

This could turn into a can of worms. Best bet to contact a rescue group and let them handle it. They have the know-how and connections to deal with this.

 

[Dobejazz]

Thankfully it says he was neutered by the person looking to rehome him.
IDR + is full until after 4-1 but may have room for him he is the info on surrendering

[sandee396]

whoa, to triciakoontz , no one took the dog he was given up freely, and they don't know who the breeder is, he's neutered and is living w/ 2 other dogs, wow can stories get out of control.
I am just trying to find a home for the dog, and will pass on info for the Doberman rescue group to the guy, but he would like to find a home for him. So if anyone out there is interested, please contact me.
Thanks!!!

There is another person on the "Rescue forum" in Michigan looking for a c/d young male! Maybe you to could talk and figure out a way to transport him!
Good Luck!

 

[dobester]

I have talked with them already 7 hours drive and his ears are not standing.

Here's some pictures of the Doberman in need of a home

Please check out Ajaxs's story and see what can happen when dogs are "given away"

Keep in mind this was after the original applicant was screened yet the dog was still given away

 

[sandee396]

Yes I just saw this story on the IDR, just goes to show you no matter how hard you try, their are no guarantee that any dog will have a good home, people that do this to their dogs should be made to starve themselves, there was a. Judge who put a lady in jail for 5 days, because she starved her dog,,he made her eat only bread and water, said she would realize after a couple days what that poor dog went through.
