OUR BREEDING PROGRAM

We are a small, dedicated European Dobermann breeder based in Ohio, USA. All of our dogs are 100% European imports, carefully selected from bloodlines that have proven themselves in both the European show ring and working fields.

 

Our Dobermanns are first and foremost beloved family members. Their health, happiness, and longevity are our highest priorities—and those same values guide our breeding program. We aim to produce dogs that embody everything a Dobermann should be: beautiful in conformation, sound in body and mind, and capable in both work and companionship.

 

Our dogs excel as loving family companions, loyal protectors, and talented competitors. We are active in conformation shows and dog sports, and our dogs descend from generations of champions and accomplished working dogs. Every dog in our program is fully health-tested annually, ensuring we breed only from dogs that meet the highest standards of health and longevity.

 

When raising puppies, we focus on quality over quantity. Litters are planned occasionally so that each puppy receives the time, attention, and socialization they need to thrive. Every potential home is carefully screened to ensure the perfect match, and we remain a lifelong resource for our puppy families—always here to offer guidance, advice, or support.

 

We are committed to breeding only within the standards of the Dobermann breed and to preserving its integrity for future generations.

 

Feel free to explore our website and contact us with any questions—we’re always happy to talk Dobermanns.

OUR STORY

At Imperium Dobermann family has and always will come first. The idea of family however is not just felt through its traditional meaning – blood relations, but rather has gained a more broad reach. Whether its our dogs, someone we work with, or someone that has one of our puppies – all are our family. ​

Just like our dogs – we too are European imports. 

We are two sisters, Jovana (the ring leader) and Dunja (the protégée). We moved from Europe to Ohio in 2017 and other than an occasional complaint about the cold, we never looked back. We are property investors by trade, Dobermann breeders by passion.​

While we were growing up, our mother was a well renowned show/working Labrador breeder in Europe and to this day is an immense help with our dogs. She has transferred her incredible passion and knowledge of dogs to us.  

Our dogs live in our home with us, and according to the people that know us, they live better than most humans. Being that they got a puppy bath before we even got a kitchen in our new house, we guess there’s some truth to it. We promise we’re not bragging, but we must admit our friends and family are probably right – we are a little dog obsessed.​

​When we moved here we brought our beloved Igor with us and for a while, until we settled a bit we were a one dog household. 

Eventually as our company started to see success and grow, we decided to expand our family as well by adding the precious Lily to our family. This is when our dream of sharing our love for Dobermanns with other people started to come to life. ​

Being that we own a business we are able to spend pretty much every waking moment with our beloved dogs who are our family. We don’t have kids, we have our dogs and they go with us everywhere we go. ​

​When we are not traveling between Europe (where we show our dogs) and the States, we live a very active lifestyle with our dogs. With that being said, we also love nothing more than a nice relaxing evening in front of the fireplace, or a long and relaxing trail ride – a lifestyle our dogs compliment perfectly.
