The Doberman (or Dobermann) Pinscher got its name from Karl Friedrich Louis Dobermann , the breeder who originally developed the breed in the 1890s. Dobermann was a tax-collector in the town of Apolda, in the German state of Thüringia. He also ran the Apolda dog pound. With access to dogs of many breeds, he aimed to create a breed that would be ideal for protecting him during his collections, which took him through many bandit-infested areas. He set out to breed a new type of dog that, in his opinion, would be the perfect combination of strength, loyalty, intelligence, and ferocity. Later, Otto Goeller and Philip Gruening continued to develop the breed to become the dog that is seen today. (source Wikipedia).
