This beautiful, young Dobergirl has an outstanding face and an interested-and-engaging personality. She’s clearly been bred, and whoever posted her ears needs a talking to, but she’s a terrific girl all the same.
She came to us from a home where was loved, but I get the impression she grew to be larger than anyone had expected. As a result, she lived outside day and night. Mind you, she had an air-conditioned doghouse with an automatic watering system, so she wasn’t suffering any with her physical comforts and needs, but as we know, these dogs thrive on companionship, and having to live outside, no matter the comforts, is no solution.
Here’s what her former human said about her: “I am turning her in because she is too big to be in our house and has to stay outside all day. I have gotten more busy with work, so I am gone really early and return home late. As a result, I only have limited time to spend with her. She’s too big for my wife to walk her, so I am the only one that can handle walking her. She deserves to be with someone with more space and who can tend to her more often. She knows to sit, down, and give paw on command.”
She apparently would get so lonely that she’d breach her electric fence to go hang out with the neighbors; it’s how these dogs are - they want and need human interaction. Her human put up a wooden fence and that stopped the leaving-the-yard problem but left her craving human interaction all the more.
Observations from our volunteers:
“I walked with her yesterday, and she was pretty good on the leash. She listened to me when telling her to stop or when turning around. She does like to pull a little; however, she is a very sweet girl and seemed to want to play with the other Dobe on the walk.”
“This girl could have been named Breezy because her ear flop looks like a breeze is always blowing over her head!”
“Makoto is one of those Dobes that is just so easy to have feelings for. First glance shows you she’s been over bred for her young age. Regardless, she is very sweet, active, and playful, and she has a really great disposition and temperament. She is smart and well socialized too. It amazes me how resilient these Dobes can be, and Makoto is definitely one.”
"After spending time with this lovely Dobergirl this morning I couldn’t help but wonder how a dog who looks as though she hasn’t had the easiest life could be so darn sweet and well adjusted. She just looks a bit like a refugee from a puppy mill, but is one of the sweetest dogs you’ll ever meet. When she comes in to your face and gives you the gentlest, eager kisses (and you just met her), you know this is a gem of a dog!"
There’s no bad news with this beautiful Dober. She just wants a loving home where she can live inside and snuggle with her human. If you think your home may be a fit, make an appointment to meet her once your application is approved, and come meet her and spend time with her in person. She’ll put a smile on your face and a soft spot in your heart, for sure.This beautiful, young Dobergirl has an outstanding face and an interested-and-engaging personality.
