My Sam
May 25 2007, 6:04 PM EDT I am the proud doberman owner. I adopted my dog at 8+ years old, with health issues, and he is the best dog in the world! Dont ever let someone say an old dog can't learn new tricks! He has picked up on every command! Dobes are truely working breed dogs and need a job! Excercise and obedience training are going to be crutial for a doberman to be a part of anyones life. They are so smart, and will get themselves into trouble if they become board, and when I say trouble I mean eating the couch cushions or your favorite shoes. Really research Dobermans, contact local rescues and they will be more than happy to educate you about the breed. Dobes need to be a part of the family, they have no overcoat and are not meant to live outside, cold or hot. Remember a dog is a lifetime committment., and training takes time! You must be willing to committ yourself to working with this breed of dog. If you want a jogging partner perfect if you want a couch potatoe not the rite dog for you, , nobody told my Sam he is almost 10, , he still runs like he was a pup! Good luck!

May 26 2007, 11:49 PM EDT That is very cool that you adopted an 8 year old! Wonderful story and so glad that all worked out so well for you. I totally agree with your advice. Different breeds can be so different--potential new dog owners should certainly research and select the right dog based on temperament, personality and breed characteristics rather than a cute face--this is so what makes a long term relationship work!
