I live in SC and my husband and I want to get a Dobi for our young daughter because all the research I have done into the breed makes it a perfect fit for us. Having said that, I am having difficulty finding a reputable breeder. Do any of you know of anyone in SC who breeds Dobis??

Great picture, but it causes flashbacks to The Boys from Brazil.

A doberman named Fifi? That’s like a boy named Sue.

We’re Weim folks...I like the look of Doberman’s too. Last month we found ourself “Weimless” for the first time in many years (old age took one dog, and a few months later, lymphoma claimed our other Weim.)

So we adopted through the Big Dog Ranch Rescue in Florida (they merged with a Florida Weim rescue) and have lots of Weims. But they have all breeds. No kill shelter, large acrerage near West Palm, but a lot of the dogs are fostered around the state. There was a doberman mix called Buck and he was a gorgeous dog. (shameless plug for this rescue organization because they do a good job.) http://bdrr.org/adoptable-dogs/

Also, here’s a story about a Weim rescue that turned out to make it to Westminster (video at link.) http://www.lifewithdogs.tv/2012/02/rescued-weimaraner-to-show-at-westminster-2012/

Thanks for posting. That is one beautiful dog.

No doubt Dobermans are a stellar and majestic breed of dog, I've known a couple, and I've considered getting one. Currently I have mutts but won't rule out a Dobie or another king of dog breeds, an American Staffordshire Terrier.

Damned nice looking Dobe.

have helped boost her dog, Fifi,

I'm sorry; but, a Doberman named Fifi???? What has the world come to?

I can’t continue to read these....we adopted a black and tan 12 years ago....Lost her to cancer last November....can’t afford to buy another....Your best friend, a solid member of your pack, and pleasing and protecting you is the dogs only thoughts. True Canine Nobility.

Dobies are great dogs.

I'm prejudiced towards German Shepherds.........My experience with Dobermans is that they are high strung and stupid.

Of course having been bitten by a roommate's doberman certainly affects my opinion of them.....
