Red, My Funny Doberman
Rescued to Hero
-His True Hilarious Stories-
This book shows how the author, Kae, struggled but overcame through discipline, consistency, patience and love a hard-headed and comical Doberman to become a magnificent canine one day. It shows the amusing, true “tails” the author had with a very intelligent adolescent Dobbie that she adopted. This dog was so smart he was always trying to outwit me with a great sense of humor. Her hard work paid off one day when Red helped me out of a dangerous situation and became my hero.

Red had enough sense of humor to show Benny that what he intended to do was going to be a funny one too so that Benny really could not get angry with him. That was part of this dog’s little scheme. We’ve been told that some Dobermans have a mind of a human six year old and that idea seems a bit difficult for some people to conceive. However, here is just an example of how this breed shows its intelligence.
Because as soon as Benny struggled and finished rolling the heavy carpet and was just about at the end of it, Red dashed out from the corner hiding place to unroll it back with all four paws moving furiously at the same time. So this was how he got his little plan into action…….”
