do people confuse your dog with a Coonhound? Happened to me this weekend, and I gotta admit, it kinda bugged me. I guess people are so used to the typical "erect ear" image of a Doberman. My dog isn't full Dobe, anyhow, but I looked it up and I guess I can see how people might make that mistake.
Here's a pic of a black and tan coonhound...
The markings are very similar, although the hound has much longer ears, and I don't think their tails are usually docked either. Also, it appears that the Coonhound's ears sit much lower than a Dobe's.
