DGP focuses on Life's Longevity in the Doberman Pinscher breed. By breeding genetically healthier dogs under strictly managed Professional Breeding Programs, We intend to reduce the risk of passing Genetic Disorders and Diseases to future offspring while reducing COI. .
Research & Evaluation
DGP will need to research ALL Doberman Pinschers entering our Breeding Program. This includes Registration, Pedigree, Veterinarian Records, Genetic Reports, Lab Results, OFA Certifications, etc. Documents will be evaluated by a group of canine professionals, geneticists, veterinarians, breed judges, master breeders, etc.

The Doberman Pinscher is a canine breed that suffers from a hand-full of life threatening genetic diseases. One of the most dangerous being (DCM) Dilated Cardiomyopathy, a heart disorder that can cause instant death to even a young puppy.

The breeding process has strict rules and regulations to be successful. It's easy and simple, breed ONLY genetically healthy Doberman Pinschers with each other to eliminate the possibility of Genetic Disorder/Disease passed onto offspring putting some AT RISK. Never breeding Carriers of faulty genes to other Carriers or Affected (Risk) dogs of the same genetic concern. Health First is acquired by Preventative Actions along side DNA Testing and Research to Evaluate potential participates in our Genetic Breeding Program to establish Life's Longevity, Participates undergo all Breed Club and OFA recommended health test.Promote Healthier Breeding and Decrease the Incidents of Inherited Diseases/Disorders in the Doberman Pinscher bloodlines and ultimately the Breed.
