Dob's are great dogs. As a long as no one trains them to be aggressive, they are loyal loving companions. They like (and need) a lot of exercise though. Exercise (a brisk walk, or once I saw a guy being pulled by a Dob while he was wearing inline skates) will really help a Doberman stay calm around the house.

Come on Adam?! One cute, unconditional loving dog? Admit it, even Will can be a (loving) kind of dog sometimes too!
AdamAndWill Wrote:Will: HA!! Famous last words. We're adopting a dog, we'll be bringing him home next Friday. A black lab. I knew I could wear him down lol -
Not a black lab Will! There will be black fur all over the house, and you know who will curse you every time he has to dust. You're not doing your case for a dog any good here. Try a golden retriever. Good dogs, take direction well, obedient. Golden retriever's are often used as service dogs too. Oh well, probably too late now. I'll bet you already have him don't you?

We've had a long list of pets over the years, almost all of which were humane society rescues:
Zosia (Polish for Sophia) -a cat that Mark found while gassing up the car - he hopped right in
like he owned it and us. Tried to find her owner but couldn't.
Sebastian, (humane society save)our mixed breed Maine Coon cat, who love to lay in
bed and wash our hair while we slept
Henry (humane society rescue) a snow white Persian with beauty copper colored eyes.
He left hair everywhere he went. Brushing him was a daily funfest.
Angel (a gift from Mark's nieces and nephews) a salmon crested Cockatoo who talked a lot,
was loud, made sounds like Vincent Price laughing in the middle of the night, imitated an emergency siren (he had lived briefly by a fire and ambulance house),and once, thoroughly against my will, masturbated himself on my hand while I cleaned his massive cage (you try and stop a bird from molesting you when faced like a beak like his!).
Barbra (a humane society rescue) our beloved Oriental short hair -Yes, I named her
Barbra. She had a long nose, slightly crossed green eyes, and the loudest voice I have ever heard from a cat.
Barbra & I, ...Me after a long day at work (when I was still able to work), and her sitting on my chest, commanding my attention, demanding love rubbing her face against my own. My lap and my chest were her favorite places to be. She used to meet me at the door after work every day, waiting to leap from the floor to my shoulders, 6 feet up, gracefully and without injury to me. She was happy to ride there until I settled down. Without doubt the most remarkable, loyal, and loving cat I have ever known.
Sophie (a humane society rescue) our sweet Chihuahua. Not a mean bone in her body
and loved us no matter what. She was scared to death of loud fireworks though.
Grace (a too expensive gift from my brother - $500.00 from the breeder) another Oriental
short hair who has a sweet disposition and must be around Mark and I at all times for the company.
