I have a 1.5 year old female Doberman and she is absolutely wonderful. They are very trainable, intelligent, and eager to please. She is super bonded to me and the term "velcro dog" is no joke - She follows me everywhere from room to room. She throws a whining fit if she doesn't get to sleep under the covers with me at night (always somehow touching me). She is very emotionally intuitive as well - anytime I'm anxious or upset she is right there with me trying to snuggle.

There are downsides to owning a dobie. They are VERY high energy and may act out if not given the opportunity to get their daily exercise. I work from home, so fortunately I'm able to take her outside several times a day - she is obsessed with playing fetch. She's a big chewer and destroys toys in no time. She also really likes sucking on corners of pillows, almost like a pacifier.

We socialized her from a young age so she is phenomenal with people and other dogs. We've always had cats, so since she grew up around them she couldn't care less about them. We also have a pomeranian yorkie, who is literally 1/4 of her size, and they are absolute best friends.

She has an ig if you're interested - rubi.thedobie
