I don't know about dobermans, I never tossed one off of a dock.


i've heard a long tail helps a dog migrate across a log on a river, creek, or branch.

they wave it back and forth, and it helps keep them balanced on the short diameter log.

i've never seen a coon-dog fall off a log into the creek. but i guess it could happen.

We used to hunt a bob tailed Bluetick, not too sure if he ever fell off of a log or not.

The last time that bear ate a lawyer he had the runs for 33 days!
