My name is Mike Doberman.  I was born January 20, 2000.  My birth name is Triadel's William Shakespeare.  I come from a long line of champions.  My grandfather was twice international world champion.  I had an empty life until I met Bob.  I'm not to be feared but if you're looking for a dog to play with try Snoots, Sammie or the Beags.  I like to follow Bob around and check out everything he does.  If he is sleeping I follow Valerie around.  I love to eat and usually get a little taste of whatever Bob has.  Valerie hardly ever gives me anything, she thinks I'm a little overweight.  But really I'm just big boned.  I do a lot of exercising all day long and taking care of my pack keeps me pretty busy so whenever I get a chance I sack out on the couch with Bob.

     I have graduated from every class available to me in a thirty mile radius.  I love going to classes but Valerie doesn't have the time anymore like she used to.  I am a very obedient guy but there is no one more manipulative than myself so I am used to getting my way.  Although I don't get away with much with Bob, he thinks like a dog.  He & I play a lot of jokes and tricks on Valerie and most of the time they are pretty funny and everybody has a good laugh.  Once in awhile she ends up getting a little mad and guess who gets in trouble.  Me, always me, never Bob.  It wasn't always like that, when they were married on June 6, 2004 things changed a little bit.  That's okay though, I was glad that they got married.  I was the ring bearer in the ceremony.  I like that Tom Collins guy and I think he likes me too.

     Well I have to get going now because it is bockwurst  treat time.  Sometimes I get served my treat on the couch but not tonight because Valerie just put a freshly washed couch cover on.  So stay tuned and check back as I add my life experiences to this website.
