DanBar Cairn Terriers
~ For Farm or Family ~
Over the past decade DanBar has developed a family of rustic, health tested, good natured cairn terriers. Fantastic with children, death on rodents and weasels, my cairns are a great choice as active companions for hiking, fishing, dog sports, farm life or companion for kids. Best of all, I breed for the true hard coat - so rare today; my dogs do not require plucking, stripping or trimming to look like a cairn!
Welcome to DanBar Dobermans & Cairn Terriers
DanBar European Dobermans
~Experience * Knowledge * Ethics ~
In 1979 I was certified as a Police K9 Trainer/Instructor and my first Doberman, Otto, passed certification as a Police K9. In 1981 I titled Otto in schutzhund and another Doberman in boththe American and German highest level man-tracking test. This was the beginning ofmy life-long love affair with the breed.
Now retired from a career as an animal control officer, I have the space, time and money to fulfill my dream of producing my own line of healthy, beautiful, robust Old World Dobermans.I spare no expense importing the finest dogs from Europe and in yearly health testinglike echocardiograms and Holter tests. This is not a business but anexpensive hobby - a passion - that brings much joy to my life.
Before you buy any Doberman please educate yourself to the health issues facing this breed. This site is designed to help you quickly familiarize yourself with the vital information you need to know before investing. I am here to awnser any questions you may have, no matter where you ultimately decide to purchase a pup.

I am proud of my dogs, my "cage free" facility, my health testing record and welcome anyone* to come visit - bring the kids!Due to my remote location, rough road and weather considerations, the kennel is closed in the winter. I breed for spring/summer litters only. Visitors welcome from April 15th to November 1st.
