Baron was one of the great loves of my life. When he died, I felt like I had the heart ripped out of me. People used to look at Baron and say they were scared of Dobermans. I would say, “Well have you ever owned one?” When they would say, No,” I would reply, “Well if you ever owned one, you’d really be scared of them. Their strength, agility, and speed is far beyond what most people can even imagine.”
Dobies have such incredible loyalty that they are well-nigh incapably of hurting their owners. But anyone else — don’t get too comfortable!
Abso - friggin - lutely. I’m on my third dobe and I think this one is the best one. They’re basically 4 legged human beings the way I look at it. And like you say, incredibly strong and agile. Mine will nip at me when playing (which I really shouldn’t allow but there ya go) but he’d never hurt me. He’s about 80 lbs. of pure muscle and drive. And a bark to go with it.
