This breed is a strong and commanding protector. Pinschers were used to guard and herd, and their intelligence allowed them to learn very quickly how to perform these tasks effectively. Dobermans are highly trainable, but it’s essential that owners establish themselves as alpha figures in order for them to take commands from humans. They’re also incredibly protective towards their families, making them great watchdogs.
