Hello Darlings! My name is Lady Elsbeth and I am royalty in search of a family who will treat me as such. I'm a remarkable dog-truly special-that's what everyone says. I am great with dogs of all sizes, kids too. I weigh 52 lbs and I am around 9 years old. I am a prize! Von Wild Test was negative. Saw neurologist to figure out my wobbly stuff which is being managed with pain meds. I can't wait to meet you! *please note All of our dogs are in private foster homes. Once you fill out an application it will be screened by our volunteer adoption team. From there, if your application looks like a good fit for the particular dog, it will be sent to the foster where you can ask all the questions you would like and schedule a meet and greet.
🧠 Temperament
Intelligent, intensely loyal and strongly bonded to their person — Dobermans are often described as velcro dogs. They are naturally alert and watchful, which needs to be channeled through early socialization rather than suppressed.
🎾 Exercise
High — 60-90 minutes daily plus training. A bored Doberman is an anxious Doberman.
✂️ Grooming
Very easy. Short coat, weekly wipe-down, minimal shedding. They feel the cold and often need a coat in a NYC winter.
🏙️ In an LA apartment
Their size and reputation trigger breed restrictions in many buildings — check your lease before falling in love. Otherwise they are clean, quiet indoors and settle well.
