These are some videos of working Dobermans (they are from European lines, so they may seem rather heavy built compared to American ones… our Dobes are not as elegant I guess, but I love them, and I love the way they work! :D)
I had the luck to see them in action in person on two occasions in the past (the first time I was 12 and I think it was one of those life-changing experiences. My mouth fell open the first minute and stayed that way till the end). They are incredible, amazing dogs!

I love the Italian Dobes much better. They are too fragile looking over here, I could of when in Taekowndoe did a Karate chop at the neck and broke it. I never owned one because of the fragile looks. I love the heavier boned like your Fede. Very nice videos I enjoyed. thanks for sharing.:)

To tell you the truth, I like American Doberman looks too, they are quite different from our lines but I like them both aesthetically. Anyway, I’m particularly fond of European dobes because I like to think about this breed as working dogs first of all, and I like the way they breed them here, focusing on working skills first (but not only)
The dogs in the video are some of those I like better.
Gilgamesh Casa di Oz comes from a Yugoslavian Kennel, and for me he is one of the best dogs they produced (together with Escobar and El Nino) . His father comes from an amazing Italian dog, Gamon di Campovalano.

Beautiful. I remember the series of movies in the 1970's Those Amazing Dobermans, The Doberman Gang, etc. It sparked my interest in dogs. There is a breeder that competes in PSA, Sch, and French Ring named Vadim that has some lovely true working Dobes. They are hard to come by now.

I ran into a breeder of some really nice working Dobermans last weekend at my PSA trial. Vadim is based out of San Diego, CA and my trainer actually has a few dogs from his last litter. They are very nice, like the type I fell in love with in the 70's. His dogs are on USAdobermann.net
