The vast majority of our clients train for obedience (sit, down, place, come here, etc.)
Some dogs / owners are more advanced and train with tunnels, jumps, etc.
Capable dogs and owners can pursue protection training or bite sports.

Generally, yes!  Our Dobermans are bred to be family companions with high intelligence and a desire to be trained; aggression toward the family is highly unusual.

Generally, yes!  However dobermans are known for same sex aggression - a territorial characteristic that manifests more often in males than in females, and more often in intact dogs than fixed dogs.  If you plan to have more than one dog of the same sex, please reach out to discuss ways to minimize any risk.

Generally, yes!  Dobermans were created with the sole purpose of protecting humans from other humans.  They are expected to have some level of natural suspicion or protective instinct, and we have the expertise to guide you to the best possible Doberman for your specific needs.

Absolutely!  We take the safety and well-being of our dogs so seriously that we contractually require them to be returned to us if the owner is unable to keep them for any reason.

$4,750 for an 8 week old puppy.  Beyond 8 weeks old, the price increases to reflect their exceedingly advanced training.  Sex, color, size, or temperament do not impact the cost.

This is a great question, and it's one we get often.  The short and brutal answer is "it depends".  There are pros and cons with each option.  For example:
- Rescue dogs (typically) have unknown hereditary health, temperament, and behavioral issues, however, you are absolutely giving a great life to a dog in need.
- Well-bred dogs have known hereditary health, temperament, and behavioral patterns.  Not all well-bred dogs are perfect, but most of them are very predictable because these characteristics are identifiable and repeatable within a reputable breeding program.

We offer a great solution:  Our "rescue" dogs are thoroughly tested for temperament and health, and offered to great homes at a fraction of the cost of a brand new puppy!
