👑 What is a Campbell’s Family Dobermans Crowned Champion?
We’ve had quite a few people asking about our Crowned Champion Program, so we wanted to explain exactly what makes these puppies so special.
A Crowned Champion isn’t simply a puppy who stays with us longer for training. It is a puppy personally selected by us as the strongest overall candidate from the litter—the puppy who best represents the qualities we prioritize within our breeding program, including temperament, confidence, structure, intelligence, trainability, and overall potential.
For families who choose this program, we make the selection for you, while taking your gender preference into consideration. Rather than bringing your puppy home at 8, 12, or 16 weeks, your Crowned Champion remains with us for their first year of life.
During that year, we raise, develop, socialize, and extensively train your puppy through our structured training phases—from foundational manners and obedience to advanced, reliable off-leash work in real-world environments.
Families may also choose our Crowned Champion program with protection foundation, where appropriate, focusing on controlled drive development, confidence under pressure, alert behaviors, and protection foundations without compromising the stable temperament we expect from our Dobermans.
Essentially, this program is designed for the family who wants the best candidate we can identify from a litter, raised and developed by us through that critical first year, and delivered as a polished, confident, highly trained young Doberman rather than a blank-slate puppy.
Because of the amount of individual time and development involved, we accept a maximum of two Crowned Champion puppies per year.
