Thank you facebook for being the place where I generally get more aggravation then answers.
Anyway I asked this on an all dog group for my step uncle, he doesn't do the internet so I agreed to help him out. But apparently my question was to subtile for this group to get so I came to the forum. Where I always get an answer and always learn something I didn't know before
.
Little about my step uncle:
~ He has owned rottis and GSDs since he started out on his own (he left home when he was 18 and he is now 65)
~ He vowed to never own another rotti again after his last one (his heart dog) named Sugar passed away
- she was abused very badly by men and it took him 2 years (and many treats plus er visits) for them to become best friends
~ His wife doesn't want another Shepherd due to his shedding (he does shed worse then the rottis ever did)
~ my step uncle brings his dogs where ever he can
~ he owns his home with a large plot of land, neighbors on both sides are his kids and grandkids
~ at my urging he did go to a dog show to meet some Dobermans which pretty much made him set on wanting one
- in going he also found a couple potential breeders (3)
Hes done his research (mostly through books and print outs I give him plus information from the dog show). However he wants first hand knowledge of them from people who own them. Hey Id rather here it straight from the horse's mouth over reading it somewhere. So what is some first hand information you Dobie owners can give him?
