Hey everyone,
I am considering getting a Doberman as a pet, but I have heard conflicting information about their behavior. Some people have told me that Dobermans can become aggressive towards their owners and even attack them. This has made me hesitant about bringing one into my home.
I want to know if there is any truth to this. Have any of you had experience with Dobermans being aggressive towards their owners? Or is this just a misconception about the breed?
Any advice or personal experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hello all,
I used to own a Doberman, and while she was a great dog, she did show some aggressive behavior towards me and my family. It was not something that we expected to see, as we had done everything we could to socialize and train her.
We tried to work with her by using positive reinforcement techniques and seeking out the advice of professional trainers, but unfortunately, her aggression persisted. It got to a point where we felt it was too dangerous to keep her, and we had to make the difficult decision to rehome her.
While I do not think that all Dobermans are inherently aggressive, my experience has made me very cautious about adopting another one in the future. It is a sad reality that sometimes, despite our best efforts, certain dogs may have unique temperaments or personality traits that we simply cannot change.
I think it is important for anyone considering adopting a Doberman or any breed of dog to understand the potential risks and to be willing to take the necessary steps to train and socialize their pet. However, it is also important to accept that sometimes, even with the best intentions, things may not turn out as planned.
