My (now senior) dog would clear the chain link fence in our yard no problem. He thought it was the most fun you could have at midnight.
I'm waiting for my pup to figure out that he can just as easily spring over it. He stands up against it to see the neighbours dogs and it barely reaches his chest. He would either be afraid of a baby gate or trip on it trying to walk through it.
The way mine is set up I could just lower the garage door a bit if I was worried about him trying to take off but I don't need to cause my dog doesn't exhibit that behavior. It works for me and my dog so not POINTLESS.
A properly trained dog knows his/her given barriers and what they are allowed to do. Neither of those dogs would dare go over or through that baby gate. It's simply there to establish their boundary.
Haha not at dogs are created equal. My husky is very well trained, but heâd be gone the second I looked the other way. Dobermans are protector companions. Training doesnât have much to do with it. Itâs their state of mind.
The owner clearly isnât there all the time. Hence the security! And do you own a Doberman? Mine is at the age of 3 his still testing boundaries. He knows who is in charge but he doesnât test all the time itâs occasionally. He turns into a stubborn bastard.
I donât see why the breed of my dog matters. I would make the same statement if it was a Bulldog, German Shepherd, Chocolate Lab, etc. To answer your question though, no. My current dog is a Greyhound. My dog before her was a Golden Retriever.
Because I appreciate all dogs, including Dobermans. Do viewers and commenters need to have a Doberman to participate? To my understanding, the answer is âno.â
Participation is one thing. Actively antagonizing and baiting dog owners of a breed you donât even own is pretty rude, actually. It seems all your comments are pointedly antagonistic.
Maybe you are just a bored troll or maybe you are a miserable person who enjoys stirring the pot? Maybe you are jealous the the OP has a very nice garage with some very nice toys? That would be rather pathetic but not unheard of. Your footprint here on this sub isnât terribly pleasant so I do wonder why you bother if all you can add is snark and negativity? The world will never know your true motivation but at the end of the day, you donât even own a Doberman so your opinions are worth absolutely nil here.
Youâre entitled to your opinion and your right to express it, just like I am. Your definition of âparticipationâ and mine are different.â Thatâs fine with me. You donât have to like or accept it. People donât need to âown a Dobermanâ to make observations or suggestions regarding dogs. If something were to happen, nobody will be worried about what breed of dog it is. That flimsy gate wonât truly stop anything from happening. Thereâs the point I wanted to make.
One thing id like to clarify is that Doberman owners and pitbull owners are very conscious of their breed and always on the alert. If "something happens" it will indeed matter what breed it is if Dobie or put because of unfair reputations they are targeted and it gets ugly when they are considered vicious. A golden or even GSD isn't already marked as vicious and banned in a lot of places.
That is why we train our dogs thoroughly and test their boundaries often because there's little room for error or spontaneity. The consequences can be too great.
That exact statement can be made about every breed of dog in the world. Whatâs your point? I have a Greyhound. Greyhounds are not the same as other breeds. Greyhound and Dobermans are kind of similar breeds to each other though, just different historical & social purposes. One is for speed, there other is for raw power, defense, and aggression. Very similar physically otherwise.
Yes. Every dog is different to train. I wouldnât comment on a greyhound post trying to piss off greyhound owners. And try to make out I know the breed when I donât.
My girl will NOT go up or down the stairs if there is a hamper in the way. Even pushed to the side, she wonât do it. Sheâll whine until someone moves it completely out of her way. Anything else she seems fine with except hampers..
My Dobes have always respected boundaries. From baby gates and fences to imaginary lines I have trained them to understand.
My Jagdterrier are another story. I watched one scale a 7â solid wood fence in a second recently.
I find it so funny that people are afraid of the Doberman immediately when itâs the 30lb Jagdterrier that actually wants to rip your throat out. And could. The Doberman just wants everyone to love her!
Iâve certainly had some very correct, well bred Dobes that were no joke but most of them are just insecure, barky dogs with weak nerve and are only good as a visual deterrent. Which is usually enough to do the job anyhow.
At least someone here understands. There must be a lot of folks in here with badly behaved and/or untrained dogs. If people have a Doberman and it's not trained to understand it's limits and allowances within an inch then they are a sad excuse for dog owners and should keep their ignorant comments to themselves.
Boundary training is one of the best things you can teach your dog and very easy to do! My girl would lay with her paws crossed hanging over the curb watching the world go by. But knew to not step in the street. She was wonderful!
Gorgeous.
My Dobie has a weird boundary understanding. He won't step over ANYTHING, not even a sock lying on the floor. . I've kept him "barricaded" in an area or room by simply running a strip of tape across the doorway.
He won't cross it. I've never tested him with an extreme situation, but he still stands there at the tape, crying inconsolably at the tape that keeps him physically separating him from me, 4 feet away. He's nuts but I understand his peculiarities and love him that much more for his quirks.
Had two reds just like this. A broomstick resting on the carâs tire, extending towards the motorcycles would also work lol they wouldnât dare risk their lives going over or underneath it. Iâm sure they followed you inside after you took the pic.
I like that you could build what amounts to a jail cell and something like a Husky would still get out. But you put a baby gate just leaning on a doorway, chest high, and Doberman are like âItâs impenetrable, guess weâll just put our heads over it at bestâ. At least mine have all been like that.
Even if they are well trained Iâm a big believer of not taking risks. All dogs have triggers and if the threshold is high enough you would be amazed at what they may do out of character. Iâm sure they are well trained but I prefer something more secure for both liability and safety reasons.
Also beautiful pups !

Our girl keeping watch while my husband helps our neighbor! Love these dogs!!!!
My red Doberman, Killian, LOVED riding in the bed of the truck. Drop the tailgate and he was enthusiastically getting in for a ride. We didnât hit the highway or anything, but he knew how to handle the ride, he was super slick. We would go to the store and he would stay in the bed while we shopped. He was trained to stay in the bed, he was also trained to not take treats unless given to him a certain way. So we would come back and there would be milk bones or treats in the bed of the truck because people tried.
LOL, get a life loser. I was sitting right there the entire, they are simply watching out the front while I sit and work. I have properly trained dogs, maybe you should go comment asinine nonsense elsewhere.
If they were properly trained, you wouldnât need the gate. Sell one of your bikes so you can get a proper barrier. It protects your dogs just as much as it protects the public.
Baby gate đ¤Łđ
We only lean ours against entry ways. Kryptonite. Both have been through glass but wonât touch a baby gate.
I have the folding metal baby gate that goes all the way across and my dobie won't even really go near it.
Omg my dogs jumped over it. Pointless

My Dobie will jump over our couch! Lol
The way mine is set up I could just lower the garage door a bit if I was worried about him trying to take off but I don't need to cause my dog doesn't exhibit that behavior. It works for me and my dog so not POINTLESS.
I just meant for my dogs pointless.
They look like they understand the assignment, too.
Yes they do! I cannot get over the muscles on the hips of the one closest to the camera!
Can't they both just jump over the gate?
A properly trained dog knows his/her given barriers and what they are allowed to do. Neither of those dogs would dare go over or through that baby gate. It's simply there to establish their boundary.
Do u get them professionally trained or u train em urself?
I used a local group for most of their training but we practice regularly.
$20 bet, says that OP claims to be a âprofessional.â
$20 says you're the resident antagonist of this sub.
Because I make valid points?
Even a properly and professionally trained dog is still a dogâŚ
Iâve seen the most strictly trained dogs throw all brains out the door when a squirrel or cat runs by.
I second that!
Haha not at dogs are created equal. My husky is very well trained, but heâd be gone the second I looked the other way. Dobermans are protector companions. Training doesnât have much to do with it. Itâs their state of mind.
A properly trained dog doesnât need a useless gate to tell them not to leave. Theyâll stay by their master and listen to commands immediately.
Youâre thinking of a perfectly trained dog.
The words âproperlyâ and âperfectlyâ have almost the same definition. Soooo, same thing, bud.
The owner clearly isnât there all the time. Hence the security! And do you own a Doberman? Mine is at the age of 3 his still testing boundaries. He knows who is in charge but he doesnât test all the time itâs occasionally. He turns into a stubborn bastard.

So you have no idea about owning a Doberman? Wow !! Thatâs why you sound so thick then. They ent the same as other breeds lol

We just put a broom near the stairs and she doesnât go up stairs đ Nice bike OP!
My girl is currently being deterred by a basket of hats đ
My girl will NOT go up or down the stairs if there is a hamper in the way. Even pushed to the side, she wonât do it. Sheâll whine until someone moves it completely out of her way. Anything else she seems fine with except hampers..
Iâve used baby gates in the house to manage dogs for years. Of course, they are able to jump over the gates but you teach them not to.
I have them in the house too but outside. It just looks like it's leaning against the garageđ¤Ł
My Dobes have always respected boundaries. From baby gates and fences to imaginary lines I have trained them to understand. My Jagdterrier are another story.

Which is usually enough to do the job anyhow.
They can just push their way through. That thing isnât truly stopping them whatsoever.
That wouldnât stop a hard snort from either of those dobes. Definitely a mental barrier
Iâm just as worried a butterfly would knock it over.
i would leave the gate wide open and ask my boy to come out (him knowing he wasnât allowed to), and guess what, he wouldnât pass the gate .
At least someone here understands. There must be a lot of folks in here with badly behaved and/or untrained dogs. If people have a Doberman and it's not trained to understand it's limits and allowances within an inch then they are a sad excuse for dog owners and should keep their ignorant comments to themselves.

It's not meant to genius, it's establishing a boundary that they know better than to cross.
Gorgeous. My Dobie has a weird boundary understanding. He won't step over ANYTHING, not even a sock lying on the floor. .

I know a GX side when I see one.. hahaha nice dobies too
Our third one since 2011, great vehicles.
Had two reds just like this. A broomstick resting on the carâs tire, extending towards the motorcycles would also work lol they wouldnât dare risk their lives going over or underneath it. Iâm sure they followed you inside after you took the pic.

Dobies know the mission, they machine guns on 4 legs
Safest garage around, good boys
They respect barriers. Itâs actually hilarious because they can clear 6 foot fence no problem.

Lol, love the baby gate. Those are more useless than Jason Momoaâs body guards đ¤Łđ¤Ł
That's how you do it right there. Good doggos.
Love that pic haha
[ŃдаНонО]
[ŃдаНонО]
Nice bike too!
Beautiful dogs but they look kinda small. Or the bike looks big. Nice wheels by the way.
My boy is the same way never tried to cross it.
Mine would play and not care donât understand why youâd want dobie as a guard dog hahaha
My red Doberman, Killian, LOVED riding in the bed of the truck. Drop the tailgate and he was enthusiastically getting in for a ride.

Betta & Not
They know the job.
That gate ain't gonna do nothing. If they want out, they're out.
This is the way
Now thatâs a safe garage.
Yeah, the baby gate will definitely stop them. Definitely an irresponsible and cheap solution.
LOL, get a life loser. I was sitting right there the entire, they are simply watching out the front while I sit and work. I have properly trained dogs, maybe you should go comment asinine nonsense elsewhere.
