Doberman Rescue Minnesota (DRM) is dedicated to rescuing Dobermans. loyal dogs they were bred to be.
Doberman Rescue Minnesota DRM is an all volunteer, nonprofit 501C, charitable organization founded in 1999. We are dedicated to all homeless Dobermans and finding the best possible home for all Dobermans that come into our adoption program. The decisions and recommendations regarding surrendering or adopting a Doberman are based primarily on what is in the best interest of the dog and are guided by many years of experience with this special breed. We care as much about the quality of life for all Dobermans in our program as we do our own dogs. Every Doberman that comes into our program is considered a "lucky Doberman" as they do find a loving forever home. DRM is dedicated to each and every dog that comes through our program for the dogs entire life, no matter what, per our adoption contract. Dobermans in our foster program live in private homes with foster families who evaluate the Doberman for temperament and behavior traits, give them structure and play and interact with them. so we can make recommendations on the best type of home for our dogs. To adopt, we do have specific adoption requirements for adopters, and do require a home visit by one of our dedicated volunteers prior to adoption to ensure all our dogs are going to safe forever homes. To surrender a Doberman please contact us through Facebook, email us at [email protected] or phone at 651-256-2294. If you need to surrender your Doberman, for your pets safety and well being, please do not place your beloved pet on Facebook or Craigslist but contact us directly as we are dedicated to every Doberman that is in need of help. Doberman Rescue Minnesota is committed to teaching about responsible pet ownership and the Doberman breed. We do know this breed is not for everyone, Dobermans can have super high energy release requirements, extraordinary intelligence that needs stimulation and are demanding dogs, in your face, that require a strong leader, willing to work and socialize them every day to be the magnificent. Our organization networks with other rescues and shelters across the US and is willing to help where ever needed. We will always assist other organizations when possible.

Roscoe is urgently looking for a foster or adopter! ‼️❤️
Roscoe, a 3-year-old Blue European Doberman who is ready to find his "furever" team! Roscoe isn't just a dog; he’s a graduate! He’s spent the months in "Scholar Mode" with a professional trainer and has absolutely blossomed. He’s got the brains, the beauty, and a heart of pure gold.
⭐️He loves people of all ages and is a total rockstar at adoption events. He prefers a "chill vibe"—no hyper puppy energy for this refined gentleman, please! He’s treadmill trained, walks well on a head halter, E collar and muzzle trained and is currently mastering his off-leash skills.
🎾Roscoe’s Favorite Things: the ball, chewing, car rides, and snuggling! Did we mention he’s a giant lap dog?
✔️Neutered & UTD on vaccines. Crate trained & Potty trained. Knows all basic commands (and some advanced ones!). Roscoe is a fun, smart boy who just wants to be loved!
‼️Roscoe is requiring someone who has Doberman experience, comfortable with training and needing to continue his progress and work with him on his stimuli reactivity while on walks and building his confidence and bond with his handler.
A 5’ physical fence is REQUIRED
No other male dogs in home. Submissive female dog would be ok and Roscoe LOVES kitties 🐈⬛. They are his best friends 🩵🐾
Please read all adoption steps and policies carefully on our website. http://dobermanrescueminnesota.com/adoption-steps/ Qualified adopters are within the approved adoption area, and Adopter will be requested to visit this foster dog at the foster family home.

🐾 Pipkin needs a forever home or foster!🐾
Remember Gertie? She’s back with us, now named Pipkin, and this 2.5-year-old girl is ready for her right match. 💜
Pipkin is a fun-loving, energetic, fetch-obsessed Doberman who will chase a ball or stick all day and then happily crash on the couch with her people. 🎾🛋️
She’s house trained, trustworthy loose in the home, sleeps through the night, and is incredibly food motivated!
But Pipkin needs a home that understands her quirks. She has a **high prey drive, so NO CATS**, and she can be reactive and pushy with other dogs. She’ll need slow introductions, continued training, structure, and an experienced person willing to help her succeed. She’s also slower to warm up to men and does best with calm introductions.
✨ Her ideal home:
🐾 No cats or small animals
🐾 Preferably an only-dog home
🐾 Active, experienced family
🐾 Older, dog-savvy kids (8+)
🐾 Someone who loves training, fetch & adventure!
Pipkin is sweet, silly, active, and full of potential. She doesn’t need a perfect home, she needs the *right* one. ❤️
Could you be Pipkin’s foster or forever family?

Flanagan checking in.
Our 2yo Dobie mix handsome, fluffy, gentle and sweet boy is enjoying his summer routine of playing outside in the sun, sneaking some of his favorite treats, fresh cucumbers 🥒 right out of the garden 🪴 lol!
Taking some naps and then helping his fosters parents out doing hard work digging in the gardens. He’s such a mellow and easy doggo.
If you’re looking for a quiet, laid back boy , who just wants to hang out and follow you all day, look no further. Here he is…….

Prince — Looking for a FOSTER or FOREVER HOME!👑
Prince is a handsome 5-year-old Doberman who is ready for his next chapter. 🖤🤎
Prince is neutered, cropped & docked, crate trained, loving, cuddly, protective, and a total family dog. He has lived with children and is described as a sweet boy who loves his people. He has no bite history and no resource guarding. Good with other dogs in home.
His family is surrendering him because they are no longer healthy enough to properly care for him.
We want to be upfront about what Prince needs to be successful:
🚫 No experience with cats
👧 Older children, ideally 8+
🏡 Secure fenced yard strongly preferred
🐾 An experienced, patient home willing to give him structure and proper introductions
Prince was not well socialized as a young dog and has had serious conflicts with another male Doberman in the past, so we are being very intentional about finding the right placement.
Can you foster Prince? Or could you be the forever home he has been waiting for?❤️

Anna Banana needs a FOSTER!! 🌟
This petite powerhouse is Anna, a young bundle of joy with a huge personality packed into her small frame! Found as a stray, she’s been blossoming in her foster home and showing everyone just how sweet, smart, and silly she is. 🌟
Anna’s motto? Play hard, snuggle harder. She’s a total fetch fanatic, loves zooming around the yard with her foster siblings, and enjoys quiet cuddle time with her foster mom during reading time. 📚💤 She’s the perfect mix of playful energy and cozy companionship.
This bright girl has already learned sit, spin, turn, wait, leave it, and take it — and she’s working on heel, down, front, shake, and stay. 🐾 Her eagerness to learn (especially when food or toys are involved!) makes her a great candidate for scent work or obedience training.
Anna is great with kids and small animals (yes — guinea pigs, rats, mice, even a bearded dragon and leopard gecko 🦎!). She can be shy at first with new people or situations, but with patience and positive reinforcement, she opens up beautifully and gives her whole heart. ❤️
Anna’s Notes:
🏡 6-foot privacy fence required (girl’s got hops!)
🐿️ High prey drive — she loves chasing squirrels and birds
🦮 Slip lead or martingale collar recommended
🛏️ Crate trained, house trained, and loves her kennel
Anna is loyal, affectionate, and full of life, always ready to greet you with her big Doberman smile and wagging tail. If you’re looking for a playful, loving companion who’ll make every day brighter, Anna might just be your perfect match. 💖

Blue is a joyful boy with a big smile and an even bigger love for life! ⭐️💙
This happy, affectionate boy is always ready for his next adventure, whether it’s a game of fetch or simply tagging along as you go about your day. Fetch is his absolute favorite game, and he’ll happily chase a ball until he’s completely worn out. He also enjoys a good game of tug-of-war (with fair warning, he’s pretty proud of his wins!).
When playtime is over, Blue is just as content relaxing by your side. He’s a loyal companion who simply wants to be near his person. Blue is great with people, knows basic commands like sit, down, and shake, and rides wonderfully in the car. He is crate trained, though he may bark if crated for extended periods, and he communicates well when he needs to go outside by sitting at the door and whining.
Blue can be a bit rough-and-tumble with other dogs at first, so slow introductions are important. He would do best in a home where someone is around more often and can continue working with him on crate comfort and routine.
Blue is having some stimuli reactivity with his current foster and living in a busy neighborhood with lots of bikes, runners, motorcycles and etc. So he will need someone to continue his socialization and exposure training and taking it one day at a time and helping him getting used to all of this energy. With the right match, Blue will be an incredibly fun, devoted, and loyal companion.
