THE DOBERMAN PINSCHER
Someone once said that the Doberman Pinscher is the "Cadillac" of
dogs. Most people who have owned Dobermans will agree... There are
many other good breeds of dogs... andthen there are Dobermans... "the
dog of dogs".
A Doberman is a affectionate animal, but his affection is noble. He
wants to be close to you, to have your hand on his head, to rest his
head on your lap, or to sit with his back to you pressing his body as
close to yours as he possibly can. He owns you and he wants you to
know that he enjoys this role. He is glad that you belong to him.
A Doberman is a lively dog with lots of speed, strength, and agility.
He can run with a horse, maneuver quickly enough to catch a rabbit,
track faster than a Bloodhound, tree a mountain lion, and beat you to
your favorite chair every time - if you let him...
A Doberman is a very gentle dog with the firmness of Gibraltar... He
will let a baby crawl all over him... He will take his six-year-old
mistress walking to show her off and guide her with mature
judgment... He knows that it is well to let a six-year-old have her
way - unless it is dangerous...
A Doberman is a sensitive dog, keenly alert to your feelings and
wishes... if someone visits you whom you don't like, watch the dog,
for he will be watching your visitor. After he has been with you a
few years, you will find that often you don't have to speak a wish.
He will know and respond... You become a part of him and he becomes a
part of you. The only tragic part of owning a Doberman is that part
of you is buried with him when he dies...
A Doberman is useful. He was first bred as a guard and watchdog and
he is the only dog that was originally bred for this purpose. No
other breed excels him at this task. Many owe their lives to these
great, sleek animals. No one will ever know how many attacks and
robberies have been prevented because of the family Doberman...
The Doberman is a gentle dog. He guides the blind. One of the largest
foundations specializing in guide dog work kept records on various
breeds in training. They found that the Doberman had the best
training record, the best record for "rejects", and the best record
for continued devotion...
The Doberman is an obedient dog. Today, those who want a great
performing dog in obedience trial work usually turn to Dobermans. As
one top professional trainer and exhibitor says, "In obedience, a top
working Doberman can be topped only by another Doberman. No other
breed can compete for cleanliness, speed, and performance."
The Doberman is a magnificently beautiful animal. He is a square dog
with ample body. He has a sleek dry coat with precise clean markings;
a long, arched neck for balance and nobility, a dark eye, almond in
shape and set fairly deep for appearance only. He is a dog with
"built-in beauty". There is no such thing as an ugly Doberman.. some
are closer to perfection than others, that is all...
The Doberman in pose is a noble and loving thing, but the most
thrilling part of a Doberman's beauty is in action. He is an animal
so natural you would think that evolution has been aimed at him, and
yet the precise control of selected breeding of more than sixty years
is what has crystallized his form and motion...
