OUR DOGS
Dogs are not our whole life, but they make our lives whole.

"Igor"
Igor is everything that defines a Dobermann. Good looks, personality, temperament, drive... By far the most versatile dog we've ever owned. No matter the challenge, this boy is acing it. Want to do protection work or dabble in any dog sport? No problem. Show off his good looks at a show? He's on it! Cuddle on the couch or entertain children? Oh, for sure!
We often joke that he is part fish, as given the choice he would rather be in water than on land. With that said, naturally dock diving is his favorite sport!
Extremely loving and protective of his family, he has an uncanny ability to decipher friend from foe.
With a boastful pedigree filled with world and European champions, Igor is definitely living up to his family's good name. At 8.5 years old, Igor is still competing, showing and siring phenomenal pups that inherit everything good there is from him. Nothing, not even time flying by can stop this guy. He is forever young at heart!

"Lily"
Lily gave us two beautiful litters full of accomplished pups and has since been retired from our breeding program and is enjoying well deserved spoiled pet life. At 7.5 years of age, she is beautiful and as healthy as ever. She is still up at the top of our page as there wouldn't be Imperium Dobermann if it wasn't for Lily.
Lily is our imported redhead. As beautiful as she is gentle, she definitely brings a feminine touch to our household.
She is built like a boulder but runs with the grace of a deer. She possesses a super sweet and easy going personality and is down for whatever - whenever. Don't let her chill attitude fool you though! This girl has drive to spare. Bust out a ball and see her light up instantaneously ready to work!
Her favorite pastimes include taking up the whole couch and hoarding all the shoes she finds around the house and nesting with them in her bed.
Incredibly intelligent and receptive to new knowledge, she quickly learned English commands even though she was an adult. Living proof that you can in fact teach an "old" dog new tricks.
Not only does she have a pedigree full of champions, but she also has her own "champion" title as well.

GCH ANYA DE IMPERIUM TKA CGCA DN WAE IGP1
"Anya"
Anya is the product of our own breeding, the daughter of Igor and Lily and was born on 02/20/2020. Anya is everything we wished for and more! Besides her stunning looks, her temperament leaves little to be desired. Her drive and willingness to please is amazing. So much so, that she earned her very first trick dog title (Trick Dog Novice) at just 14 weeks of age, and moved up to earning her Trick Dog Intermediate title at 22 weeks of age.
She inherited her father's love of water and has been bravely jumping off the regulation docks since she was 3 months old. As soon as she was old enough to compete, at 6 months old she immediately earned her first dock diving title!
Wise beyond her years, this girl picked up all the best traits from her mother and father. Anya is a service dog and performs her duties beautifully. Anya won 8 championships and 3 grand championships in just one show season. This same season she added an IGP1 title to her already vast list of accomplishments. Anya then proceeded to give us the most perfect litter of 4 girls and was the most amazing mother. So good in fact that she has now made it a point to adopt any puppy she comes across and treats it as her own. The amount of love Anya has to give never seizes to amaze us!

MULTI CH MEAN-YA DE IMPERIUM VITA IGP1
"Meenya"
Meenya is our shining star. She is the daughter of our dear Anya and the 2014 IDC World Winner - Freaky Styley v. Hohenzollern. We are absolutely obsessed with this darling girl. Meenya was made from sugar, spice and everything nice! From looks, to temperament, to a boastful pedigree - she has it all.
Meenya is extremely intelligent and receptive to new knowledge. She is super easy going and sweet but has loads of drive when needed. She is very bold, fearless and yet friendly. Basically, everything we love to see in a Dobermann.
From the second she arrived to this world she was the crowd favorite.
Meenya has too many show wins to count and this summer she finished her BH and IGP1. She is a carbon copy of her mother in every way aside from color. We must admit, she's also a tad less opinionated which is always nice! She lives to show and to be seen which is why Meenya has been showing and trialing in Europe for the last two years and has won pretty much everything there is to win for a cropped and docked dog in Europe. She has been "Club Winner" on numerous occasions and has so many trophies that were running out of place to put them all.

CH MIGHTY TUNA DE IMPERIUM VITA
"Tuna"
Tuna is Meenya's full sister, out of our "fantastic four" litter. She is a powerhouse through and through. A female in a male's body. She gets that from her grandma. Tuna absolutely adores children and is the kind of dog you can simply take anywhere with you. Her favorite pastime is just being with her people no matter what adventure she's on. She inherited all the best from her mother, Anya, and her father, 2014 IDC World Winner - Freaky Styley v. Hohenzollern.
Tuna is about the easiest dog you can imagine. Whatever the task, she is up for it! She has never met a dog she didn't like, nor a cat for that matter. Her obedience is on point and she's always looking to please. Has drive for days, but one of the best "off switches" we've ever seen in a dog. Tuna spent last year showing in Europe and in one show season she acquired 3 championships from 3 different countries. She turns heads everywhere she goes!

LAZAR DE IMPERIUM VITA
"Lale"
Lale is our resident goofball. He is the son of our Igor and Eureka v. Zogohof. At a year old, Lale is still one big baby and even though he's 85lbs he is convinced that he is a lap dog.
He has been a distinguished gentleman since the day he was born. He will walk on a loose leash wherever he is, has perfect recall with no training aids, is very polite and calm. Due to this, Lale is on the fast track to be an amazing therapy dog. He loves everyone he meets, especially children. We cannot wait to get to a point where we can put him to some real work and take him to visit hospitals and retirement homes.
Now, all of this might make you think "then he must be lacking drive", but this simply isn't the case. He has plenty of drive for both sports and protection and is extremely ball and food motivated.
We have had such a blast with this boy, watching him grow and are super excited for him to continue his journey with us!

LOLA DE IMPERIUM VITA
"Lola Baby"
Lola, or Lola Baby - as we like to call her, is the spunkiest little girl you've ever seen! Her willingness to please is second to none and she executes every command with such vigor and passion. She is an absolute darling little thing that adores doing anything that grants her the praise "you're the best girl".
Just like her littermate, Lale, her obedience has always been amazing so she can be taken anywhere to meet anyone. She is fun, adventurous, super fast and crazy agile. She loves to use her nose and excels at anything scent related. She is also killer at agility and loves to jump over anything you put in front of her, although we're taking it slow with that as she's still young and not fully grown. She is absolutely fearless and could go for days with how energetic she is, but she is the most perfect angel around the house that prefers to snuggle up with her brother on days were not doing much of anything.
She loves her brother the most in this world.
