Review is overdue! Our girl Roxy is 5 and she is the absolute best. Not one single health issue. Our family is in love with this girl. She is amazing with our young boys. I highly recommend West Coast Doberman. Anyone new to getting a Dobie remember they take a lot of work as puppies but it is worth the reward. Dobermans are the most loyal and loving companions, and Tony is the best at preserving the characteristics of this incredible breed. read more

I'm writing this review absolutely devastated after having to put my 6-year-old Doberman down. From about 8 months old, we dealt with ongoing health issues--severe skin problems and hair loss despite a raw diet and trying every supplement possible. After spending thousands of dollars on tests, bloodwork, medications, and vet visits, we finally learned he had hypothyroidism--something that absolutely should be screened for in Dobermans, as it is hereditary. Even after diagnosis, the medications came with their own side effects, and we were constantly trying to manage and minimize those while keeping him comfortable. Our family went through so much emotionally, on top of watching him struggle physically, and we spent roughly $10,000 in vet bills just trying to help him. A month ago, his hypothyroidism led to a grand mal seizure. Our strong 86-pound dog was reduced to a panicked, shaking, terrified puppy. His medications stopped being effective, and we endured several sleepless nights as his condition worsened. His final night was heartbreaking. He had multiple grand mal seizures--falling, becoming bloodied, foaming at the mouth, urinating uncontrollably, and paddling his feet. We were bent over him, crying, trying to comfort him and tell him he was safe. I am angry and heartbroken over a life cut far too short--something that could have been prevented with more responsible breeding practices. He was the best boy: incredibly smart, loving, and deeply cherished. I only wish I had looked more closely at the negative reviews from other heartbroken owners who also had to say goodbye to their dogs far too early due to negligent breeding. read more

This is our second Doberman from West Coast. I would recommended Tony's Dobermans if you're looking for the best of the best. We love his breeding quality that we are looking at another one next summer after we are done with Bo's training. read more

At West Coast Doberman Ranch, Tony is the man. He is very knowledgable about the breed and he is very dedicated to his dogs. He has something like a 10-acre ranch and keeps it well-maintained for them. He has all kinds of recommendations for medication and diet as well. He also does posting for the ears, which is great since they can all run around for a bit after the long drive. His stock includes American and European Dobermans as it helps the breed be more healthy with more genetic diversity. You can definitely feel the affinity for and appreciation he has for the dogs he breeds. 10/10, would highly recommend. read more

We found Tony after we got our Doberman and he referred us to where we could get his ears cropped and now he is posting them for us, all his dogs in his home and beautiful, he gave us great advice on products for healing the ears and even shots he is great. read more

Today marks three years of having an amazing female Doberman, Iris We are more than pleased and grateful to have the opportunity to have an awsome companion to complete our family. Iris is everything we could ask for, she is intelligent, great focus, in tune with emotion. She's super sweet, loves to socialize, and takes upon her protective nature pretty well as she is sharp, let me emphasizes the stigma not aggressive, SHARP, very aware of her surroundings, great with children and just an amazing bloodline. Now what makes this and even better experience is Tony. He is amazing his dogs are a reflection of his work. As busy as he may be, he handles his work with a passion. You can tell he loves his dogs and prioritizes keeping up with families during puppy stage and even after you can always reach out with an questions or concerns. Before you leave with your pup he gives a whole checklist. He will bathe your pup, clean/disinfect and post ears so you see how it's done, along with a guide with the information, he'll explain diet, nutrition and supplies. I love that he has the families also come back to retouch ear posts and check in with process to make sure everything goes as smooth as possible and that we also meet our dog's needs and potential. Needless to say we got scolded for underfeeding our pup but learned quick these puppies have appetite! Lol also his wife was so sweet (we hung out for about three hours just exploring the pups and ranch). We have visited as well after for an upset stomach, Tony provided us with meds and all good! Also a scare when she began to have symptoms, he told us what it was and what to do. Got her hydrated and took her to the vet asap. Definitely appreciate Tony's expertise and support. All in all I highly recommend great bloodline and great service! We can't wait to add more companions soon as we can! HBD Iris the coolest dobbie ever! read more

Anthony is the best of the best!!! Truly love all his dogs and they are part of the family. We breed our female that we bought from him 3 years ago and had a very challenging deliver that ended up being a C-section with 11 puppies. Anthony met us at the vet and took mama and all the pups home with him after the C-section. Trouble didn't end there as mama didn't have milk until after the 3rd week. Anthony hand fed 11 puppies 5 times a day and stayed with them 24-7. He offered to just keep them all there until they were ready to go home with other families. He knows the business so well! What the dogs need at all times. Antibiotics? He has it all. He checked the pups several time daily and if they were dehydrated he would give them fluids via shot. I can't say enough about this guy. We did lose one pup at day 3 with a neurological problem but the other 10 strong and healthy. Without his efforts I'm pretty confident we would have lost more. He taught mama how to be a mother so next time we breed she will be ready! When we picked her up Anthony followed us out to the car and held her head and told her he loved her. Amazing human being. I would never go anywhere else for dog breeding. read more

100% the best. The love for and from Dobermans is felt here. Tony's posting of our little Daisy's ears was perfect. Thank you.

Thank you Tony for our new baby boy Zeus! Your love for Dobermans really shows. The couple hours you spent with my wife and I teaching us how to wrap the ears, going over the food, and care for our new family member. We really appreciate the follow up calls to see how he is doing and if we needed help with anything. You made the continued care for the healing of his ears and making sure they stayed standing really easy to follow. Tony truly cares about his dogs and they are very well trained with great temperament. I saw one of his females have puppies that were not hers jumping all over her and it didn't bother her at all. read more

If your looking for a puppy, a pure breed European doberman pinscher, I highly recommend Tony's West Coast Doberman. These dogs are beautiful, smart, loyal, and truly amazing dogs. I got my dog, Axel, back in June of 2022 as soon as his liter was ready. He takes very good care of his dogs and knows exactly what he is doing. When I got Axel, he was a Big pup. He is 9 months now and still growing at 89 pounds! Very playful and full of love! Tony helped assist me with everything I needed. Paperwork with his first shots, papers for what to have and be prepared with and I couldn't imagine getting my first doby anywhere else. He still answers any questions I have and is dedicated to making sure my dog grows big and strong, healthy and handsome! I appreciate you Tony for all you have done and I hope my review helps your breeding business as you are an amazing breeder! read more

Thanks Tony for being so helpful and making the process of getting our boy enjoyable as well as educational. This little guy we brought home has grown a ton in the short time he's been with us. Tony introduced us to his Doberman puppies and allowed us time to interact with them until we could determine which baby was a good match for us. He also was very informative about how to integrate our puppy into our home and gave us thorough instruction on how to change the ear postings. We are very pleased with the caliber of dog we received from West Coast Doberman Ranch and Tony's knowledge and professionalism. read more

Great looking European Dobermans, great facility. I was able to choose from two liters of dobermans and I was lucky to get the exact look I was looking for a dobbie, black and rust color but with darker mask. I'm inlove with the pup and amazed how good nature and smart he is. I've had different breeds of dogs growing up but never had a Doberman. I did some research and watched a few videos on doberman breed but talking to Tony, I've learned even more. Tony took time to explain the doberman breed. Hours went by and I've never even noticed it. My wife and I enjoyed Westcoast Dobermans facilty and felt confident that we're bringing home a good quality family member. read more

We brought Denver home about 15 months ago and he's become a great friend. He's a very handsome, confident, friendly and big boy (110 pounds). I couldn't have asked for a better temperament, he is very good with people and animals, but he is very protective when warranted. If you're looking for a beautiful dog with a great temperament, give Tony a call. read more

I am so glad I found WCDR and to have met Tony! I bought my Doberman last year and throughout the process he was so helpful! This was my first very own dobie (always had them as family dogs). Tony really help me out from picking the gender, where to buy the raw bones, to making sure I was posting her ears correctly, and literally everything in between . I honestly would not go anywhere else to get my Doberman! Tony has the ranch immaculate not pee or poop around anywhere. Tony really loves his dogs and knows them all by name from their barks. I am writing another review because my parents were ready to get another dog. Of course sent them to Tony! Another great experience.

I have two Dobermans from West Coast Ranch and I absolutely love them. They are the best breeder in the area. Tony, the owner, has been working with the breed for a long time, over 15 years! We got our first brown/red girl and learned so much about everything from ear cropping to diet and skin care. The best part of Tony is that he wants good people to have the puppies and be their furever homes. He interviews with you and wants to know if you are willing to love the Doberman breed as much as he does. A dog is your family member and you need to be able to care for them. His dobermans are fully AKC registered and have genetic testing. He will help you with the parvovirus vaccination and ear posting and best part is his in-depth consultation. This is an all inclusive full service necessary to be successful with a handsome and beautiful doberman from the West Coast Doberman Ranch. read more

I have had my doberman for 5 years now and over the 5 years I have had nothing but health issues. From skin issues , to stomach issues , and now cancer in his mouth which is causing him to die a slow death. Over the years I have run into 4 people who have bought a doberman from the doberman ranch and sadly they all had the same story as me. 2 of them had heart issues and died at 5 and 6. 1 person said there dogs heart grew too big and died at 6. And finally a woman who bought her dog from the doberman ranch as a 1 year old and then died a year later. Yes the doberman ranch has the most beautiful dogs in the bay area but it's not worth the heartbreak of loosing your dog at such a young age. All these 5 star reviews are from people who just left with there new puppy but take it from someone who's going through the heart break of loosing a piece of my family avoid this place at all costs. read more

Don't usually write reviews but I just want to give credit to Tony ! The man puts in a lot of work into these dogs this is our first dog & we are super blessed to have Iris join our family, we wouldn't trade her for any other breed foreal ! she's so smart , beautiful and loving ! Not a day goes by we don't get a compliment on how well she listens or just how beautiful she really is ! I will say this ... these aren't small breed or house dogs so you can't treat em like that , they need at least 1-2 hours of play time to get all that energy out ! Thank me later! I got Iris at 8weeks old (2 months) she is now 10 months healthy & strong! Thanks again Tony ! i will stay in touch and keep you updated on her journey of life read more

Ever since I was young I've wanted a Doberman. The breed has always been so incredibly attractive to me for a host of reasons. Without ranting too long, West Coast Doberman Ranch (WCD) has made my dream a reality. Their Dobies are so well tempered, easy to train, and absolutely stunning. WCD also does their best to address the most common concern for perspective owners by varying the gene pool enough while maintaining purebred pedigree to minimize the risk of DCM. Our Doberman (Diesel) is now just over 5 months old, growing strong, and an absolute joy to have. Diesel has been so far the best investment my wife and I have made to date. An additional thanks to WCD for helping teach my wife and I the proper posting method to keep our puppy happy and now posting free within 2.5 months! read more

We adopted two puppies from Tony in October. Head and shoulders above other breeders. The ranch is located right in my neighborhood. The entire place pristinely clean. There is a 24 hour on site caretaker there constantly cleaning/feeding etc. It doesn't even smell like dogs live there. The Dogs here seem happy and are VERY well taken care of. Tony is always available even after you bring your puppy home. He answers his phone night and day, and truly cares about the well being of his dogs as well as the puppies he sells. He's very knowledgeable about the breed and along with giving very detailed instructions for puppies he follows up regularly. One of the puppies I bought was born blind. Still because of the socialization they receive he isn't timid, and has been a very sweet easy puppy. You can tell a lot of work goes into the dogs here. Thanks!! read more

Tony and Doberman Ranch are excellent. Puppies are healthy and are cared for. I don't think there is ever a day when I don't take my dog out for a walk and get a compliment on how beautiful she is. She is almost 3 and 100 percent healthy. I will say this for people who claim there are health issues: Dobermans are a tricky breed. My suggestion is do not to buy unless you have time and funds for a raw diet, an excellent vitamin routine, and a healthy exercise program. It has nothing to do with Tony; pups are healthy and beautiful when leaving the ranch. Here is an add-on, Tony and his family go above and beyond. I have recently been put into a terrible home situation, and Tony came to the rescue. A person who does not care about dogs or people would not come to the rescue. I appreciate Tony and his family and all they have done for my dog and my family. They are God sent... read more

Tony always communicated and kept us up to date about litters we were interested in. We had a couple of FaceTime calls to see the puppies until we chose a puppy with an all black coat. His name is Cain and he's the sweetest boy with an amazing temperament. Tony gave us all the information we needed in order to take our puppy home. He taught us how to post the ears, how to teach him some tricks, and what not to do when it comes to training and feeding our puppy. It was a great experience overall and we felt very confident in bringing our puppy home. We'll definitely purchase again from West Coast Dobermans and we 100% recommend anyone to look into purchasing from them before considering anyone else!!! read more

***BEWARE**** My Doberman died from juvenile DCM!! ***Please thoroughly read the Google and Yelp reviews before considering purchasing a dog from him. My sweet dog, Snoop, died of DCM a month prior to turning 4 years old. DOB 11/21/2018. Sire: ERDAN VITAL SCREEN WS58071901 (01-18) Dam: FILIPOWICZ'S CHLOE WS43451006 (01-16) I called and informed Tony about the cause of death but I doubt he contacted the other buyers of the litter to relay the information. He instead indirectly blamed me for feeding my dog the food he recommended when my dog was purchased (Taste of the Wild). He informed me that shortly after, he learned that feeding non grain food was no longer recommended. Did Tony contact the buyers to provide a feeding update? He did not. He offered to give me a discount if I decided to purchase another dog but I requested a full refund instead. Tony responded with the following: "I'm sorry for your loss . I know it not good for sure . But I don't give a life Loñg guarantee. We have a one year congenital coverage .,Not even written. Just on word . I do not know anyone that does .I have been at this for almost 15 years now . The percentages are very low on deaths like this but they do happen, Nothing any breeder can do it's in the Dobermans genetics. Dose not matter where or who you buy a dog from .,There is no way to fix this problem. Like I said I'm sorry for you dog and your hurt ,But there is no possible way of a 2500 dollar refund for a dog that was 4 years old . And was fed none grain good on top of that . I'm not blaming you but you have to understand things happen. And to put the blame on me is not fair. It's like if u bought a car and the motor blew up 4 years down the road .Do you think the dealer is going to give u your money back ? Let's be real here . Why do I have to be the bad guy , your dog was beautiful had the best temperament you got compliments everywhere you went . I did my part . I raised you boy with all the love and attention. Countless hours went into what I have done . Im not god and never claimed to be. I can not determine life of these dogs . I do the DNA for VWD and DCM . Your dog was DNA clear of both . That's the most I can do , if you have suggestions I would i like to hear .Your dog dying doesn't feel good to me either. But I think I have taken all precautions and gone above on doing what a reputable breeder is required to do . Feeding is really important none grain is a no no . I know you didn't know but it's a fact and a study to back it up. You told me u were feeding taste of the wild . That's what I was feeding 4 years back . But stopped after finding out about the study . Just remember if u ever buy another Doberman from anyone I do not care who . You are at risk ! Read the statistics. You will see . . That's all please don't hate on me." ******Was my dog beautiful with an excellent temperament? He most definitely was but PLEASE do not follow in my footsteps. Please do your breeder research. Tony is a hobby breeder, not a business (according to his response to a Better Business Bureau complaint filed against him-these are his words, not mine). ***Tony is a backyard breeder and you will get what you pay for... death. It is not worth the heartbreak, trust. read more

We would never ever go to another breeder! Tony and his dogs are the best. We had never had a family dog before, and after doing extensive research we settled on a Doberman. My husband wanted to get a feel of the breeder before committing so we drove to San Jose from San Luis Obispo and Tony was more than happy to accommodate us. He spent over an hour explaining his process, how he picks his dogs for breeding, and has papers to back multiple generations of your dog. I was incredibly intimidated by Dobermans prior to visiting the ranch, and now I could not imagine owning any other breed. We picked our sweet Khloe-girl up and have had her for 4.5 years. Her intelligence is incredible, she is so loving, and after having her trained and she is a 100% on command dog, my husband can walk her off leash and she will not leave his side. If you are looking for a Dobie, do not look anywhere else. But please understand before you invest in a Dobie, they are working animals that are VERY smart and need to be exercised daily both physically and mentally. If you cannot invest the time they deserve, please don't get one then blame the dog or the breeder for behavior issues. read more

We have known Tony for over 30 years and I can honestly say he loves his dogs and takes great care of them. They are raised with the greatest care. We have 4 dogs and he always goes out of his way to help with ear taping, nail trimmings and stops by from time to time to visit them. Not something he has to do but this goes to show how much he loves the animals. I would recommend West Coast Doberman 100 percent. read more

We picked up or 9 week old Doberman puppy yesterday and I am blessed to say our experience was a great one. Tony was very informative and now that we are home he doesn't mind the occasional question. We had a good time being around all his dogs who were very well behaved and awesome to be around. His kennel also shows how much he cares for his dogs as its very clean and organized. I would definitely recommend them to any one interested in having their own dobe. As far as our puppy goes we couldn't be happier. He has a great temperament and a very playful attitude and because of this I believe it was easy for our American Bulldog to get along with him. We can wait to see how good he looks as he gets older.
