Dog’s manor bed recollected (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

doberman

'dog's' is the definition.
(breed of dog)

'manor bed recollected' is the wordplay.
'recollected' indicates an anagram (letters recollected and rearranged).
'manor'+'bed'='manorbed'
'manorbed' with letters rearranged gives 'DOBERMAN'.

(Other definitions for doberman that I've seen before include "Long-legged terrier" , "Originally German breed of watchdog" , "Barker" , "Dog used as guard - bond mare (anag)" , "Big dog" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
