UNIQUE DOBERMAN'S TEMPERAMENT AND CHARACTER

The Dobermann is the only breed of dog that was developed by man for man and was named after a man. This is the key to both his physical structure and his unique temperament.
The Unique Doberman is a highly intelligent, easily trainable, large, square appearing dog with short, tight, thick hair.
He is compactly built, muscular, powerful, has large bone, a large full jaw and is very fast!
He is elegant in appearance but not fine boned, of proud carriage, reflecting great nobility and temperament. He is an energetic, determined, alert and fiercely loyal dog.
He has solid bone structure and a heavy strong body.
Full European males weigh in up to 115 lbs and up to 30 inches tall when mature which may be well over AKC standards but are within their breeds FCI, D-V or IDC standards for European Dobermanns.
How did the Doberman originate?
Herr-Dobermann of Apoldu, Germany began breeding Dobermann Pinschers in 1880. He was a dog catcher, official of the tax office and also employed as a night police officer. He owned dogs that were black with red markings and a lot of gray undercoat.
His son, Louis Dobermann, described his father's dogs as "a dog of such great intelligence as is seldom found. They were clever and fearless and knew how to bite. My father could hot have chosen a better one."
How big do Unique Dobermans get?
The average size and weight of the adult Unique Doberman is: Females, around 26 to 27 1/2 inches and 65 to 85 lbs.
Males are larger, around 27 1/2 to 29 1/2 inches tall and up to 85 to 105 lbs. This is as you can clearly see a bit larger than our American standard but what is considered normal for an European imported Dobermann that is still bred for knockdown power, tracking and agility.
What colors are Unique Dobermans?
AKC Dobermans in America come in four colors consisting of Black and Tan, Red and Tan, Fawn and Tan and Blue and Tan.
European Dobermans come in two colors, Black and Rust and Red and Rust.
America recognizes ~ Black with rust or tan markings, Red with rust or tan markings, Blue with rust or tan markings and Fawn with rust or tan markings. The rust or tan should be sharply defined appearing above each eye, on the muzzle, throat, fore chest, on all legs and feet and under the tail. Nose should be black on black dogs, dark brown on red dogs, dark gray on blues and dark tan on fawns. White patch on chest, not exceeding 1/2 inch square is permissible.
European Dobermans recognize Black and Rust and Red and Rust. Blue and Fawn are NOT a registerable color as they are considered less desirable in the gene pool and dilutes are considered inferior.
Unique Dobermans only breeds Black and Rust and Red and Rust Dobermans to the German and European Standards, utilizing the ZTP when possible.
NO VICIOUS DEFECTIVE WHITE DOBERMANS ARE ALLOWED
What is the Doberman's role in working today?
The Unique Dobermans main job is to provide protection and companionship for you and your family!
He will do so with his very life if need be. They are tough and fearless, loyal and courageous yet can be gentle as a lamb with your children and grandparents. While some Dobermans still do their traditional guard, military and police work and are used as watch dogs, most Dobermans are beloved family companions in city apartments as well as suburban and country homes... still doing the work they were bred to do, guarding their master, family and belongings. Their compact size, short hair and adaptable nature makes them the ideal companion in our modern crowded world. Easily trained and groomed, they are favorites for obedience trials, Search and Rescue, Therapy Dogs, Service Dogs, Ring Sport and Schutzhund competitions along with the conformation show ring.
Who should have a Doberman?
The Unique Doberman is an energetic and highly intelligent determined dog. The person that owns him should be physically and mentally able to train his puppy. The Doberman is a loyal and obedient guard dog and respects authority, if you're living your life as a "door mat" do not buy one of my puppies! A Unique doberman will possess great speed and power. When raised with firm and loving discipline as a valued family companion inside your home, he will be a wonderful and trustworthy protector.
He needs an owner with a kind but firm hand with an authoritative voice, a master who will protect him when young and means what he says, one who will devote the time to train him and take him to obedience or show handling classes while he is still young and moldable, an owner who makes it a point to take their Unique Doberman puppy out into the world shopping and to outdoor cafe's so they can be perfectly socialized.
*THIS TRAINING SHOULD START THE DAY YOU BRING HIM HOME.
When raised with affection but not taught any manners, cuddled one moment and screamed at the next or left to grow up alone outside in your backyard without attention and training, he will fast become a delinquent, just as your human teenager would and probably did if that's how you raised them!
There are many people who admire and love Dobermans who should never be encouraged to own one, the same as there are many wonderful people out there who should never be parents!
Should I buy a Male or Female Doberman?
This is a common question I get asked from time to time.... The Unique Doberman possess four characteristics which makes it stand out among all the other breeds, speed, power, quick reaction time and independent thinking. ALL good Dobermans will have this independence tempered with a strong desire to please his master, regardless of sex.
Females: ~ In most cases she will be more concerned about pleasing her master. The female is usually a little faster and her reaction time a little quicker than the male. While she is not smarter than the male, she usually trains easier as she will pay better attention to her owner.
Males: ~ He is more powerful than the female because of his size. He can be harder to control because he is more determined and much more interested in what is going on in the world around him (breeding opportunities). If he is taught manners and well trained early in life, he will make a wonderful companion and guardian!
WE DO NOT RECOMMEND A UNIQUE DOBERMAN MALE AS YOUR FIRST DOBERMAN
Are Dobermans good pets with children?
The Unique Doberman is an EXCELLENT family dog! A life as a valued and beloved family member is our goal in producing a litter.
He is a devoted companion and protector. With training and intelligent socialization of the dog and child, the Doberman makes a gentle playmate for a kind and considerate youngster. He makes an excellent dog for a junior who wishes to exhibit in dog shows, obedience trials or Schutzhund competition.
Our Unique Dobermans are even great in 4-H.
Are Dobermans easy to care for?
The Dobermans thick short coat needs only an occasional brushing and his toenails kept trimmed neatly. In bad weather, a vigorous toweling will quickly clean and dry him. He is naturally as tidy as a cat and keeps himself clean and rarely has any "Doggy odor". He is easily housebroken and will adjust to most anyone's daily routine... he just wants to be with his master. He will appreciate a romp outside or a long hike, but he is most content to just curl up on a rug in the house next to your feet.
Do you need a large yard for a Doberman?
The Unique Doberman is happiest when he is inside with his master. Remember he is "The Velcro Dog". However, he should have a large place to exercise freely off lead. It doesn't need to be a large yard, just somewhere that he can burn off some energy especially when he's under 2 years of age.
DO NOT ALLOW YOUR DOBERMAN TO RUN THE NEIGHBORHOOD!
