About Theo

Hi my name is Theo, I’m a black and tan, docked tail, natural-eared Doberman. I’m about 3-4 years old; I’m not sure because I was found as a stray before I came to DAR&E. DAR&E was the first place to stop and ask me “what do I need from my forever home?” I need lots of patience because I’m pretty shy, sensitive and insecure in new places and situations. I like other dogs to play with but I also like to have one or two humans all to myself, so I can get as much petting as I need. Let’s be honest, the best thing besides getting fed is getting a pet! If I’m being totally honest here, sometimes I need my space, which is my crate or a very comfy bed, where I can decompress-undisturbed.  I would prefer to have a large backyard to patrol the perimeter, but I have lived where I would go out for long walks a few times a day. 

I’m like a typical Doberboy; clingy, smart, good looking and playful. Beware, I am terrible at catching a ball- but I’ll try. However, there’s a more sensitive side to me, I have a strong “poker face” which makes it difficult for people to read my body language. I’m not a fan of loud noisy households and kids are great but not for me. I like spending a lot of time with my humans, it makes me feel more secure. 

Finally, I think what I need most from my forever home is someone with Doberman experience who understands that us Dobermans are a sensitive breed.  I need someone who can help me work through my insecurities and help me become the happy, confident Doberman that I was born to be.
