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.

Another day at the preserve...12.23.09

We went out for a short hike today, he had a blast. Louie has gotten so well with offleash hiking. He doesn't ever go farther than 30 or so feet, and once he's gone too far he'll wait for me. Love my little ninkumpoop. :)

We were hoping to see a rabbit, bird, coyote, squirell, SOMETHING, but nope. Didn't see anything, we're going back out tomorrow afternoon so...hopefully we'll see something.

Maybe the little animals have learned not to come close to Lou because they will for sure be chased :)
