My story

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

Dexter is a leggy red Doberman less than two years of age and still very puppyish. Dexter had a terrible staph infection when he came to us last year, which we have battled for months. He is on the mend but shows a few scars of his infection.

This handsome boy is very sweet and affectionate, loves his toys and is comfortable in his crate with the door open. After being in a boarding facility for a few months, his house manners need some work as he is tall enough to reach anything on kitchen counters. When he is corrected you get a big Dobie smile!

Dexter currently lives with two small dogs and was exposed to cats in his former life. He likes older children and people. He is a playful boy and likes to show you his toys but will not give them to you!

A doggy playmate and loving family will make all the difference for this boy.

A $300 adoption fee applies.

More about this rescue

Thank you for considering adopting a Doberman through Doberman Rescue of New Mexico. The last two years have brought an average of one Doberman per week in need of our attention. If you are considering adopting, then you will be a critical part of the rescue and you will get to keep the prize.
Many of our Dobermans come from animal shelters. They are picked up as strays, they are impounded by owners who don't want them any more. Many are healthy, some are not. Sometimes owners contact us when they can't keep their dog any longer and transfer ownership to Doberman Rescue.
Our volunteers assess for health and temperament. All Dobermans who come through our organization are neutered or spayed, microchipped, Rabies and Distemper/Parvo vaccinated and tested for heartworm. To the best of our ability we assess temperament. Wheather the dog is good with children, men, women, other dogs, cats. Is the dog house-broken, content to be alone or in need of a companion dog? Has the dog undergone physical or mental trauma?
We do the best we ca to understand as much as we can prior to releasing a dog to a new owner. If a dog seems "good to go" and adoption occurs, we stay in touch to make sure s/he settles in well as rescue dogs often come with baggage that's not always obvious.
