Introduction
Dobermans are a very popular breed of dog, and with good reason! They’re intelligent, loyal and extremely protective of their owners. This is why doberman dogs make great guard dogs. Dobermans are also known for their beautiful coats that come in many different colors and patterns. Here is a list of the most common coat colors:
Black
Dobermans are considered one of the most popular breeds in the world, and black is by far the most common color. This makes sense when you consider that black-colored dogs can have several other names, including:
- Black
- Solid black
- Solid grey (AKA blue)
The reason that black is such a common coat color is because it’s considered a “dominant” trait. This means that when two parents with this coat color breed together, there is an 85% chance their offspring will also be black. The only thing that can change this percentage is if one of those parents does not carry at least one copy of the dominant gene (i.e., if they are homozygous recessive). But since most people don’t intentionally breed their Doberman to another dog who isn’t carrying this gene, chances are good your pup will turn out to look exactly like its parents did as well—and no matter what color they were before!
Red
Red is the most common color of Doberman. It can range from a light red to a deep red, but all reds have black masks and noses, dark eyes and eye rims. Red dobermans are born with black masks, noses and tongues which will fade as they age until they’re completely pink when fully grown to adult size as adults.
Blue
Blue is a dilution of black and is, therefore, a recessive gene. This means that you will only get blue dogs if both parents carry the recessive blue gene. His eyes are usually dark to light in color and his coat will be gray with some black mixed in.
Blue coats are uncommon, so it may be hard to find breeders who specialize in breeding them! However, if you are interested in adding one to your family I do have some suggestions for finding good breeders:
- Contact local Doberman clubs (you can find lists on the Doberman Pinscher Club of America’s website) and ask for recommendations from experienced members
- Look at the pedigrees of potential studs/dams before choosing which one(s) you would like to use for breeding; many reputable breeders will provide you with copies of their pedigrees so that you can see how they’ve been bred over time
Fawn
Fawn Dobermans are one of the most common coat colors for Doberman Pinschers. They have a brown coat with red highlights, which gives them a very unique look. Fawn doberman dogs are also very popular and loved by many many people all over the world!
If you’re looking for a dog that loves to spend time with you and your family, then fawn colored doberman dogs will fit perfectly into your home or apartment!
Isabella
If you’re looking for a dog that looks similar to a Doberman, the Isabella is probably your best bet. It’s a light cream to fawn color and is one of the most common colors for Dobermans. This is also one of the coat colors that tend to be easier on families with children, as they are more tolerant of playful kids than some other coat colors. Some people might find this color boring or too common, but it works well if you want an unobtrusive dog who will easily blend into crowds.
