They have some very strange ideas about dobermans, and most of them doesn’t take the time to know at least a little bit them. Many time I encountered that having a doberman makes me scary person, like I would be dangerous or at least unsociable, angry aggressive person. :D Well maybe sometimes I am, but it’s not the rule. Anyway, dobermans are one of the most loyal, loving pets. They are not bad dogs, they are not willing to kill anything that moves!

What does makes me happy that actually a few friends of mine told me after spending some time with PrezLee that this dog, and he being a doberman is totally different than they were expecting. It made my heart melt to hear this words, because now I know at least 4-5 people who changed his/her mind about dobermans.

Hopefully will be many more people who will come to me and say, sorry for misunderstanding this gorgeous lovely breed. Because they are. They have such a big soul you wouldn’t imagine.

It is hard to describe the craziness, I thing it has to do with the thing that he is a somewhat dominant male, and from time to time tries if I am still the boss… There are no signs of aggression here, so no worries. But things like wanting to be the first who goes out on the door, pulling the leas, wanting to walk in front of me, and small stuff like that makes me believe he still didn’t gave up on this. Its ok, because  I take care so I am the first who goes out, I am the first who has the right to eat, there are “forbidden” places in the house where only I have access, I eat and he can really watch until I am finished.

It is really hard to describe…

PrezLee always tries to see where are the limits. I guess all dogs are kinda like this :D We went to our regular afternoon walk. It was to a nearby “green place”, where I can let him to run and play without a leash.   This is not a huge place, but it is the nearest where we can play, so this is our first stop usually. For a few days when I let him free, he started a somewhat strange and annoying barking at me, running around in circles, and somehow “hunting me”. It was clearly a behavior to piss me off.  For 2 days consecutively he managed to do this, I had hard time to catch him, bring him home and be angry for about an hour. And this is not  a good thing.

So yesterday I decided to change my behavior, went to the same place, he started to bark and run and be crazy again, and I turned my back to him and walked away. The whole craziness ended in about 2 minutes or less, and he was fully surprised, that all his efforts to make a scene and annoy me was useless.

The following video is just a small “demo”… here he was just a puppy :D .
