Have You Seen These Famous Dobermans?

• Rodney the Doberman from the 1946 movie “It Shouldn’t Happen To A Dog”.
• Moonraker, the 1979 James Bond movie has two Dobermans.
• Zeus & Apollo or “the lads” owned by Higgins of Magnum PI (tv series 1980-1988)

One of the common reasons people see Dobermans as ferocious is because of their bite. Dobermans have a very strong bite and are capable of applying around 305 PSI of pressure through their jaws. This is enough pressure to break bones in the right circumstances, or snap a tennis ball in half with one bite.

Dobermans are affectionate dogs and love to cuddle. Cuddling comes natural to many breeds of dogs; its is an instinctual behavior that has kept them warm and safe for thousands of years. However not all dogs like to cuddle up with their owners or with humans.

Dobermans don’t respond well to physical punishments, and hitting or physically punishing your dog is animal abuse. Do not deliberately stare a dog in the eye, especially if they may be aggressive.

Many Dobermans can be prone to some common skin problems that may cause them to be smelly. Skin allergies can result in bacteria growth on the skin or yeast infections. These allergies often also lead to ear infections. Odor and smell can also be from a localized source such as from the ears, mouth, or anal glad.

Dobermans will usually express tight bonds and even love for their owners by sleeping on or near them, making eye contact, leaning into them, and using them for a sense of security when in a new environment. That’s the very short answer, but there are certainly many other ways Dobermans show love.

Are female Dobermans more aggressive? Female Dobermans are often considered by experts to be more aggressive than male Dobermans. They’re usually quicker to take aggressive action against a stranger and they make excellent personal protection dogs.
