Doberman’s regularly get a bad press, but as with all dogs, it’s rarely the dog itself who is at fault, and more often than not the way the dog has been brought up by the owners. Provided the dog has been socialised properly then it is my contention that the breed of dog is almost irrelevant.
Likewise, with your young children, it is always a good idea to give them supervised access with your pets from an early age. The dog, after all, is a part of the family, and it is important that both the dog and the child learn to accept and love each other, whilst also treating each other properly. This video shows the growing relationship between a young boy and the family pet Doberman. You have to watch the video to see what happens, it’s just too cute for words.
