Louie Doberman

welcome

I got Louie the end of October, 2008, from a breeder who wanted money by producing puppies, he was three months old born 07/26/08. He has variable problems with his health and temperament. He was diagnosed with Hip Dysplasia in August of 2009. He also is started going bald around May of 2009, he has had numerous test done including thyroid testing and several skin scrapes and still nothing has been found. That’s okay though because he is a good, loyal, smart, and affectionate Doberman, who is overcoming his genetic faults daily. Our mission is to show people that Dobermans are friendly dogs; they are sweet caring creatures who just want to be loved on. We also try to educate people where to get their dogs, not from backyard breeders but from reputable breeders who temperament tests the parents as well health testing parents before breeding. Doing this will not completely eliminate all issues with the puppies but can help foresee problems that may occur. Louie has shown that he is an ambassador of the breed that has helped change people’s perceptions about the Doberman breed.

We went to the park today, usually we go straight in the dog park but it was such a nice warm day outside and Lou loves water. It is odd the amount he likes water. I remember when he was a baby he wouldn't touch it unless he had his life jacket on, even when it didn't touch his ankles. I guess Lou Man is really becoming an adult because his maturity has increased so much. Don't get me wrong, he still has ZOOMIES like no other.




So we started on this winding paved trail that paralleled the creek. When we got to where there was a clean entrance to the creek Louie knew exactly what to do. He plummeted into the water, running around like a mad Doberman. Then he was out and on to the next part of the creek.




Boy, were we in a suprise when we saw about 30 ducks perching on the bank of this large creek and some floating on the water. Well, not for long. Louie went flying into the water then out, then back in until the ducks were on the other side of this creek staring at Lou. He had so much fun.




On our way back I thought we'd stop at the dog park. I've noticed the last few months Louie rather be with just me and not any other dogs. As soon as we got into the dog park he was a different dog, a very serious dog. Perhaps fatigue, or perhaps he just didn't want to be there. We stayed maybe ten minutes and went home. He's been asleep ever since.
