From the Inside Flap
The Doberman Pinscher Doberman fanciers love to describe the appearance of the breed as The Look of Eagles. The square, chiseled appearance, with athleticism oozing from every well-defined muscle, is the epitome of canine elegance. And underneath that statuesque appearance is an intelligent, complex animal with an inherent ability to guard and protect, coupled with undying devotion. Your Doberman wants to sit on the couch next to you, or right on your lap. Its head will always be pushing into your hand for a pat. With all that intelligence and exuberance, Dobermans demand to be doing something, especially with their owners. Training classes, dog shows, sporting events, long walks in the neighborhood or runs in the field or forest are just some of the things that will keep a Doberman healthy and happy. The breed also has a distinguished record of service to humanity, as guide dogs for the blind, therapy dogs, search and rescue dogs and in police and protection work. The Doberman definitely has it all-elegance, intelligence and versatility.
