Meet the breeder

I'm Marinela S., the breeder behind Marinela's Doberman Pinschers located in High Ridge, MO. Every puppy I've sold has changed the lives of their masters for the better. They get compliments everywhere they go with their dogs, and that makes me give myself a good pat on my back. My goal is to find the right master for my puppy, to educate the new owner about how to keep their puppy healthy & train them.

Q. & A. with Marinela

  • Why did you start breeding?

    My son's Doberman, Bruno The Black Knight, was too lonely after my son went to college, we found a female who was not a good fit for the owners, and we bought her. They were perfect dogs, he was American and she was European. We had to have puppies from such a perfect match. The puppies stole my heart and I just had to do it again.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include black and rust, fawn (isabella) and rust, and red and rust. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home.
