When I was very young (just under a year old) we had a Doberman (who happened to be 14 1/2 years old at death) and his name was Rocky. He was black and brown and, from what my dad has told me, he was a very good dog. Sadly I have no memories of him what so ever, I was too young to remember him.
I would really like a Doberman though. Definitely on my list. The others on my list are Golden Retriever and a Pit Bull. Pit Bulls are beautiful dogs, and I love their colors and short hair. Makes them a low maintenance in the grooming category.
