The Dobermann has a long muzzle. It stands on its pads and is not usually heavy-footed. Ideally, they have an even and graceful gait. However, in some countries, these are now illegal. Dobermanns have markings on the chest, paws/legs, muzzle, above the eyes, and underneath the tail. Two different color genes exist in the Dobermann: one for black (B) and one for color dilution (D).
