The Doberman Pinscher was developed in Germany
toward the end of the 19th century. The Germans wanted to create a
functional protection and guard dog that would also serve as a family
companion. Dogs were selected for their courage and intelligence. One of the
most well-known early breeders was Louis Dobermann, from whom the breed
takes its name. It is uncertain how many and exactly which breeds were used
to create the Doberman Pinscher. Most authorities include the Rottweiler,
the old (and now extinct) German Shepherd, the German Pinscher, the
Manchester Terrier, and the Greyhound. What is certain is that the breed
assumed its present appearance fairly rapidly and was recognized by the
German Kennel Club in 1899.
Dobermans began to appear in large numbers in the United States after World
War I. The breed has been a successful working dog and a popular companion,
excelling in police and military work.
