In the list, is "Dobermann" a typo? I know Americans don't spell it like that, but don't know about the rest of the world.

"Dobermann" is an alternative spelling, common in Europe for example. It's arguably the "correct" spelling (I'm not arguing this, mind you), as the dog is named after Karl Friedrich Louis Dobermann, but either is fine. See Doberman Pinscher. Winston365 (talk) 05:18, 26 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think the latter is worthy of a separate page, but I also think this page should more clearly presented that we're talking about an AKC concept, not a law of nature on this page. Also, I think the redirect for "pet dog" should perhaps point to the "As pets" section of the Dog page, instead of here. Thoughts? 184.98.118.157 (talk) 15:21, 10 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I really enjoyed the pictures included and felt as though they guarded the article. The article content is all relevant, and I really felt the working dog comparison was necessary. The article can be considered neutral but may be favorable to companion dogs slightly. The citations I checked seemed to also work, and I do not believe anything else needed to be cited. I would add possible data about the amount of companion dogs worldwide there are if anything had to be added to this. All information is up to date. Very solid overall. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Shannonk2799 (talk • contribs) 03:44, 21 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
