I've owned Dobermans all my life, fantastic breed. My favorite breed actually. I'm just sad that breeders have not been diligent in breeding out cardiomyopathy and wobblers. I couldn't bare to lose another too young.
Now I'm doing the greyhound thing. Wonderful & docile...super easy laid back dogs that live a long time. Love mine to death, but they're nowhere near even half as intelligent as a Doberman.
Sorry for the rambling off topic....
My husband too, his beloved Dobie will never be replaced in his heart. He has wanted another ever since. But rescue dogs keep popping up who need us more.
I think the dog left with the ex, but if the dog was there it really depends on what he was trained to do. And I can't help but think any dog like a dobie would not be a good thing for Abby if trained or kept by him. To me, based on what people who know him are saying, he seems a very loose cannon with a quick temper who who holds a grudge. Not good pet owner in general.
