My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

California aka Cali was adopted in March of 2021 and came back to us in 2022 because her owner just didn't have enough time for her. For the last 18 months, she has been living with a number of other dogs but should be in a home either by herself or with a dominant male. She has also been called Princess and as such she is too bossy with female dogs of any size. Her previous adopter said that Cali is affectionate and likes toys. She is gentle indoors and will lay at your feet while you work. Cali is a little timid at first meeting but loves attention and can't resist a good neck scratch. She comes when called but will need leash and basic manners training.

More about this rescue

Helping Dobermans Find New Homes Since 1994

For 20+ years, Doberman Rescue of North Texas has been placing purebred unwanted or abandoned Doberman Pinschers in loving homes. Most of the Dobermans we rescue come from shelters in the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex. Each dog is checked by a vet, given all shots, tested for heartworms, spayed or neutered, treated for any illnesses or medical problems that are found, and micro-chipped. Without exception, all dogs are spayed or neutered. The dogs come to live at Doberhof, our Doberman-only private shelter in Grand Prairie. Doberhof accommodates up to 22 dogs in 11 air-conditioned and heated runs with comfortable beds and classical music. We have outdoor play yards where they exercise, sunbathe, chase squirrels and rabbits, and do other important doggy activities. We have limited additional capacity for dogs in sick bay and foster homes. When a suitable adopter makes the right choice, each dog is adopted to what we hope is a forever home. Puppies thru mature are normally available.
