Hero dog saves toddler from snake

To all:

I stand corrected. :-)

[T-Bone Texan]

Dobies were bred to bite.

They were not bred to be bite-averse like many other breeds.

German Shepherd logic: “You want me to enter the burning building through one flame-spouting window to save a baby. Time to jump through the window! I am such a good boy!”

Doberman logic: “I saved the baby in the birning building by ignoring your command to jump through the flaming window and crawled through a less smokey part of the house until I reached the hoomin pup. I am such a good boy.”

[Salamander]

They are the only breed created specifically to be “man stoppers”.

It’s just a plus that they also excel at herding and hunting.

My Wonder Dobe put my dad’s obscenely expensive Brittany to shame.

Bizarrely, a sled team lead by a Dobermann set a world record many years back.

A Dobermann still holds the world record for tracking and another, the record for the world’s most successful cadaver dog.
(yuck)

There’s nothing they cannot do.

And happy birthday to my Wonder Dobe, Tito.

I long for the day I see you again.
