Someone once said that the Doberman Pinscher is the "Cadillac" of dogs. Most people who have owned Dobermans will agree... There are many other good breeds of dogs... and then there are Dobermans... "the dog of dogs".A Doberman is a affectionate animal, but his affection is noble. He wants to be close to you, to have your hand on his head, to rest his head on your lap, or to sit with his back to you pressing his body as close to yours as he possibly can. He owns you and he wants you to know that he enjoys this role. He is glad that you belong to him.
