doberman pinscher

Thinking about getting a doberman for inside the house. Do they make good house dogs? Will it "protect" my wife if need be when I'm working nights? Thanks, any advice appreciated and info on experiences with doberman's.

Just got one two weeks ago for inside our house. Hands down smartest dog I have ever been associated with!!!!

Re: doberman pinscher

Kayla or Jason, do you recommend getting it professionally trained?

Re: doberman pinscher

I don't think it's necessary if you only want basic commands. Our pup is only 9 weeks and it took him no time to sit on command, shake & lay down. Go on you tube and search doberman following commands. That guy self taught that dog...

Re: doberman pinscher

Your post stirred old memories, I had a pincher that was as obedient as my children actually more obedient. He was as protective over my children as me and their mother. Wasn't a biter but wouldn't let anyone come around house if we were away. He died at a young age 6 or 7 due to a spinal cord issue, that as I understand is a problem in the breed. The most obedient and protective dog I've ever seen or owned.
