Did your dog tell you this? One thing is certain, after successfully training several dogs, all who turned out phenomenally, what they desire more than anything else is to please their handler....because of a love relationship. My 10 pound Maltese Yorkie (in profile pic) did things expected only of larger more intelligent breeds like Shepherds or Malinoise. We loved each other so much that she was determined to figure it out, whatever it might be. Well, she couldn't walk upright on hind legs but that was a coordination thing. She would end up hopping on hind legs, looking extremely cute.
That's how GOD made them. JESUS gave us these beautiful animals to love and to take care of them and they take care of us. We as humans are just very removed from nature. Get away from your phone TV etc and go back to nature, GOD created it for us to rest in and enjoy.
I totally disagree with crate training as I have raised 5 different Shepards and Malinois for DEA ,VI POLICE .I Find that they make there own space when they are comfortable without the crate
All this goes Double for Doberman Pinschers. They wear a sleek skin tight coat. Both are Excellent Family Dogs. GOD forbit anyone comes on your property for crime as they won 't get away!
I hope they did not leave this one behind in Biden/Harris disastrous pull out of Afghanistan where they cut their noses off in retribution. This did happen. They left billions of military equipment, Americans, our Afghan supporters and military dogs. The equipment is now being sold to our enemies and used against us..even helicopters
I would like to propose that before all of the upcoming thousands of BS bite force statements that anyone has to provide a video link of the bite force measurement. Again, a scientific study was done a few years ago, it can be found online, in which it was proven that bite force in dogs is almost entirely directly proportional to head size, with brachycephalic (wide and relatively short) shaped heads contributing to higher forces, to a lesser extent. But I realize that most of us are not really into facts these days.
