Our Story
At Forrern Dobermanns, we combine our expertise in veterinary nursing, physical therapy, and canine conditioning to raise balanced, healthy Dobermanns. Currently in Point Cook and soon relocating to a farm near Ballarat, we focus on providing a nurturing, spacious environment for our dogs to thrive. Every breeding decision prioritizes long-term health, stability, and temperament, ensuring our dogs excel in both the home and in various roles. We believe in open communication with our puppy families and offer lifelong support, fostering strong, lasting relationships with both our dogs and their owners.
Why Forrern
At Forrern Dobermanns, we’re committed to producing well-balanced Dobermanns that thrive as loyal family members, retaining the breed's natural drive, intelligence, and protective instincts. Our focus is on creating dogs with stable temperaments, solid nerves, and the ability to adapt to modern homes.
Our foundation lies in the true European Dobermann, blending top working and conformation champions to create dogs that are both beautiful and capable.

Whether it’s obedience, protection, competition, or simply companionship, our dogs are bred to be complete Dobermanns in both form and function. If you're looking for a breeder who prioritizes health, ethics, and versatility, Forrern Dobermanns is the place for you.
Our Approach
We don’t believe in shortcuts. Every dog is raised on a raw, species-appropriate diet, following BARF principles, and is kept intact to support natural development. We tailor enrichment, training, and conditioning programs to suit each dog's unique temperament and needs. Our breeding decisions are always made after thorough health screenings and veterinary clearance, ensuring each Dobermann is placed in homes that value stability, structure, and longevity.
We work closely with our vet team, ensuring the health and well-being of each dog is never compromised for looks or convenience.
Our Bloodlines
At Forrern Dobermanns, our bloodlines are at the heart of what we do. We carefully select each dog to ensure a perfect balance of health, temperament, and working ability, preserving the true European Dobermann legacy. Our bloodlines feature some of the most decorated champions in the breed’s history, including dogs with proven titles in conformation, obedience, and working trials. We blend exceptional working dogs with top show dogs, producing Dobermanns that are not only stunning to look at but also versatile and capable. From our foundation dogs to the newest litters, every Forrern Dobermann is a product of careful, thoughtful pairings designed to enhance the breed’s natural qualities — intelligence, drive, and protectiveness — while ensuring a stable and adaptable temperament for family life. Our bloodlines offer the perfect blend of beauty and capability.
