That old stereotype needs to go. Dobermans aren’t aggressive by nature—they’re alert, confident, and protective. The difference is huge. What looks like aggression to a stranger is often just them doing their job.
Nyx, for example, will stand tall when someone new walks up—but the second she knows they’re a friend, she’s all wiggles and kisses. Her heart is huge; she just guards it wisely.
Aggression comes from neglect or fear, not from being a Doberman. With love, guidance, and structure, they’re one of the most loyal companions you’ll ever meet.
