Oh yeah - You have a perfectly normal Doberman - thats for sure : )) My thinking is she is telling YOU how it will be , she is the boss and going to get her way . You have to get very firm with her . They will test you beyond testing to get there way . Lay the law down on her , or it will get worse . I have a super tester here now and she is getting the point now , LOL I tell her once to not to do something and if she is not jumping to it , I'm head over her way and she stops , she knows dad is a prick : )) The hardest thing I have had learning raising these pups is o have that stern voice , Now wife has no problem with it , I guess it is from practicing on me for a million years : )) I have talked to some pretty good breeders - trainers - the first thing out of there mouth is , Ken - Your not stern and she knows it .

Good luck
 
I would be having a come to Jesus meeting with that puppy ASAP!
Amen Brother Greenie !

And I quote - from myself : I have a super tester here now and she is getting the point now , LOL I tell her once to not to do something and if she is not jumping to it

What you said that needed to be done - Is what happened here .

Great advise !
