Puget Sound Doberman Pinscher Club
Established in 1969 • AKC licensed in 1972
We are an active Doberman Pinscher specialty club in Washington state. We are Doberman lovers and fanciers who work together to protect and support the future of this wonderful breed of dogs. PSDPC is a non-profit local chapter club of the Doberman Pinscher Club of America, a national breed club recognized by the American Kennel Club.
Our members enjoy working with their Dobermans in conformation, agility, rally, obedience, search and rescue, tracking, scent work, dock diving, police & military service, Schutzhund, coursing, barn hunt and therapy support. Take a look at just some of what we’ve done with our amazing dogs!
First and foremost, our Dobermans are our beloved companions, loyal partners and family pets.
