Special Nutritional Needs For The Doberman Pinscher
By: Jane R. Bicks, D.V.M.
Intelligent, loyal, and dedicated, the Doberman
Pinscher is not without it's physical problems.
Skin disease is common in all Dobermans, particularly
blue ones. A quality alternative food is a must,
supplemented with vegetable enzymes and bee pollen,
algae, or spirulina.
For the Ultimate Dining Experience for your
Doberman: See my recommendation here
Dandruff is not necessarily from dry skin, so before
you start adding a fatty acid supplement, check to
see if your Doberman, like many, is hypothyroid. If
that is the case, you want your supplement to contain
kelp or sea algae.
As with any skin problem, brewer's yeast and garlic is
the treat of choice.
Just in case your Doberman is a candidate for
Van Willebrand's disease, add liver to it's diet or
feed liver treats at least once weekly.

If anemia is a problem, Pet Tinic is a good supplement.
