Dobermanns are often known as Doberman Pinscher's in America because they were originally classed as Terriers (which is what ''Pinscher'' means in German). The name has now been changed in the UK and some other places to Dobermann as it was felt that as Dobermanns are not Terriers they should not be called Pinschers.
