Do children and Dobermann dogs mix well? You'd be surprised at how gentle these so-called vicious dog breed can be. Granted, Dobermann dogs, whether from the US or Australia, are fierce and a bit terrifying to look at. However, if you think about it, much of the Dobermannn dog hype comes from movies where these dogs are used to scare off people, usually intruders.

There is only one real reason why you should not get a Dobermann dog if you have children running around, and that's if you get an adult Dobermann that hasn't been trained properly. Obviously, the best way to go would be to find puppies for sale from reputable breeders or sellers because they have a name to protect, and will never sacrifice this just to make a sale.
