Both the Doberman Pinscher and the Goldador are similar in size. The Doberman Pinscher and the Goldador are both large-sized dogs.
Furthermore, the Doberman Pinscher belongs to the Working Dogs group.

Because of their size and strength, working dogs require a structured home life and firm, fair, consistent training by someone who can provide leadership without resorting to anger or physical force.

Next, we added the scores of the factors that can be added together for the Doberman Pinscher in the table (that is, `Ease of Grooming` score + `General Health` score + `Calmness` score + …etc) and we compared it to the corresponding total score for the Goldador. We call these total scores the Better-Pet Scores, as we mentioned earlier. We called this score the Better-Pet score because the better dog breed will have a higher score. This is because the pet will the higher score will have minimal needs and be easier to have as a pet.
The Better-Pet score for the Doberman Pinscher is 81 out of 125 while the Better-Pet score for the Goldador is 93 out of 125.
Despite the higher Better-Pet score of the Goldador, we still believe that the Doberman Pinscher is a better pet than the Goldador.
This is because Doberman Pinschers are much cuter but you cannot put a score on cuteness. If you could put a score on cuteness, then the Doberman Pinscher will come out on top.
