About Dobermanns in our Rescue Scheme
Our Dobermann Rescue scheme has successfully placed nearly 400 dogs over the past ten years. Approximately 90% of our dogs come from family homes, and the
remainder from animal shelters for whom we often do the home checks and placements. We re-home registered and unregistered dogs; if it looks like a Dobermann we love it, and look after it!
About half of our dogs are around the 9 to 15 month mark, given up by first time Dobermann owners who simply selected the wrong breed, and were unaware of the commitment required. The remainder are much loved dogs of all ages, given up for a variety of reasons.

How do we go about placing dogs with new families?
We do home checks on all the homes, and dog checks on all the dogs. Fortunately we do seem to get enough homes for our splendid crop of dogs, so we are able to be quite selective to ensure that this time our pups land in their forever homes. We also work with other Dobermann clubs across the country to make sure that all South Africa’s Dober-pups end up in the right homes.
A Rescue Dobermann is no different…
As Dobermann owners know, what Dobermanns value most is love, attention, clear rules, and lots of exercise. Our Dobermanns are no exception, and even
those who come from straightened circumstances re-home quickly and easily, and become loving and loyal family dogs.
