Thanks! They're are some quite "scrawny" ones around. Alot of them also have strange narrow snipey heads and look very odd. Talli's dad was imported from Belgium so he is half working lines and they seem to be chunkier. He weighs 44kg so at the top end of the breed standard here but not an ounce of fat on him. Lots of judges in this country seem to prefer the finer boned Dobes which is a shame. Much prefer the look of the working lines myself.

Thanks! We've had 3 now, 2 dogs and a bitch, and they've all been fine with other dogs, loved kids etc. Current boy is a big wimp. Ran away from a pack of yapping Yorkshire Terriers this morning bless him
