In a village of Apolda, in the state of Thuringen,in the southern part of Germany lived LOUIS DOBERMANN(1823-1894).He had a great interest in breeding dogs and was certainly exposed,through his various occupations and by attending the "dog market",to a variety of dogs.That enabled him,along with his two friends,Herr Rebel and Herr Stegmann,to proudce within a few generations dogs that quickly became renowned as a fearless protection dog. These dogs could also be used as a gun-dog, for eradicating vermin, and for herding sheep. They were said to be very intelligent,to have great stamina, and were highly trainable.
