Let’s hear it for this year’s Doberman Feature! 41 Pages on this amazing Breed is quite a feat that obviously took a LOT of work to bring everything together. Thank You to all of those that had a special hand in making this a prized collector’s edition. In my long career as a dog magazine editor, I have had the great fortune of being up close and personal with some of the top dogs in Breed History. I did the ads and assisted in the national promotion for such Iconic history makers as “Indy”, “Cryptonite” and “Devil D’” to name just a few. The Doberman Breed has no equal when it comes to the sheer NUMBERS of how many truly GIFTED handlers that Exhibit this can do it all Breed. The best of the best known the World over by just one name~”Gwen”,”Andy’,”Diego”. They have a saying that “If You Can SURVIVE The Doberman Ring You Can Survive Anything!”. I hope you enjoy reading up on these incredible dogs as much as I did learning more and more about a Breed that will forever be near and dear to my heart.
The Australian Shepherds and Portuguese Waterdogs are coming to the next issue of The Working/Herding Dog Digest with our once-a-year Special Features on each Breed.
Closing date is November 10th.
That’s All For Now, I’ll See You At The Shows
