Karl Friedrich Louis Dobermann (/ ˈ d oʊ b ər m ə n /; German pronunciation: [ˈdoːbɐman]; 2 January 1834 – 9 June 1894) was the first breeder of the Dobermann.He started the creation of this dog breed in the town of Apolda, in the Grand Duchy of Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach around 1890, following the Franco-Prussian War.
The ears were traditionally cropped and the tail docked, practices which are now illegal in many countries. The Dobermann is intelligent, alert and tenaciously loyal; it is kept as a guard dog or as a companion animal. [3] In Canada and the United States it is known as the Doberman Pinscher.
He was named Best of Breed for Dobermans, although was defeated in the Group round by a Boxer who went on to become Best in Show. [1] He had only been trained for ten hours in conformation show handling and maneuvers. [1] More titles followed, during the course of his career he was entered in 25 dog shows and won Best of Breed in all of them. [2]
The Doberman could grab one of the toys in the rain and bring it inside. The video's caption joked, "So brave." In the comments, people laughed at the silly dog and his fear of getting wet.
[6] Later on, Frederick the Great of Prussia used dogs as messengers during the Seven Years' War with Russia. Napoleon also used dogs during his campaigns. Dogs were used until 1770 to guard naval installations in France. [7] The first official use of dogs for military purposes in the U.S. was during the Seminole Wars. [1]
