When you own a powerful breed such as a Doberman, it is ESSENTIAL you maintain control at all times. Dobermans have a bite force of around 305 psi, enough to snap a bone in half in one bite. They are also highly intelligent dogs and will fight tactfully if allowed. Dobermans are capable of moving quickly and precisely paired with their packed muscles make them a dangerous enemy, or a perfect guard dog depending on which side of the door you are on!
I've been a dog person my entire life. There has been little time where I did not own a dog. I've had all sorts of different breeds such as Labradors, Lhasa Apsos, Border Collie, Rat Terrier all with their own quirks and challenges. After being pet-less for some time and my increasing anxiety of raising two children in this crazy world, I decided it was time for us to get another dog. It could not be just any dog though. I specifically wanted and needed a dog that was capable of protection as well as a family dog. After months and months of researching breeds that would fit with my family's lifestyle and my future goals, I decided a Doberman Pinscher could be a perfect fit.
