8. Doberman Pinscher

The Doberman Pinscher, or Dobermann, was first recognized in 1890 by German tax collector Karl Friedrich Louis Dobermann. Dobermans are known for being sensitive, affectionate, and caring toward children they grow up with. These pets are strong and lively, making them excellent family guardians.

They need training, socialization, and exercise to avoid channeling their energy in the wrong direction.
