(5) Doberman pinschers need an alpha owner

You have to be gallant and brave in other to establish dominance and become the Alpha.
The moment you get them home, It’s your duty to teach them, guide them and control them. Otherwise, they might usurp dominance and that is a serious problem to tackle.

Getting them to realize you’re the leader requires a lot of patience and hard work.
However, you should never be harsh, or aggressive towards your dog, instead, be gentle and consistent with them. They’ll grow and learn over time
During training using positive reinforcement techniques only such as food rewards, praises, and playtimes like all other dog breeds, they should not be treated with screams and beating.
If they did something wrong you should never do these kinds of treatment to any dog regardless of the breed
(6). Doberman pinscher go crazy over table scraps

while they can be trained not to do this, it will take quite an effort to successfully teach them not to eat table scraps, after all, they enjoy eating such foods.
(7). Doberman pinchers may develop habits that you may or may not like

This breed is a creature of many habits, including waking you up, they may sleep all they want, but if they’re awake and would want to spend time with you they will not hesitate to wake you up even if it’s four in the morning or during late afternoon naps.
Doberman’s will disturb you without realizing your sleep schedule. They crave attention and so they’ll bother you until you wake up from sleep.
Another thing about these dogs is that they let out some of the foulest gas in the world and this is why it is not advisable to have them eat table scraps because it’ll only make their gas smell worse than it already is.
Their gas is so bad that it can even run you out of a room
(8) Both you and your Doberman pinscher rely on each other

If that isn’t enough, they will make you laugh with their antics, and they will love you unconditionally and protect you at all costs, even if it means putting their lives in danger.
