The DPC is happy to provide templates created by community members to help you get started with your very own foundation dogs!

Show or Working line?

Show line breeders focus on producing dogs that do well in shows and become good family companions. Working line breeders are focused on preserving the working qualities and physical strength of the breed. The South American line do not have a specific distinction.

American Line

American line breeders have bred primarily for the conformation standards we see today at dogs shows. Much of the sharper, working aptitude originally found in the breed has been lost in that process.

European Line

European breeders breed to a standard that puts working temperament first, many breeders requiring that their dogs pass the BTS before breeding, while also embraces a physical standard. Stocky and muscular, they lack the trim builds the American dogs have.

South American Line

South American Dobermans originated with American stock and are large dogs with heavy bone and muscle with a very high drive; a sleek blend of both the American and European dogs in both working temperament and conformation.
