Oculocutaneous albinism type IV in the Dobermann is a genetic condition that first appeared in 1976 with the birth of a white female Dobermann in the United States. All current white Dobermanns are descended from this bitch.

Dogs with this form of albinism have creamy white coats, blue eyes, pink noses and lips, and poorly pigmented eyelids and eye structures. They may suffer from sensitivity to light (photophobia) and vision problems. Their depigmented skin is also more vulnerable to skin cancer and eye tumours if exposed to the sun.
