Just switch materials of the bowl. If he’s getting it with a stainless bowl (as my dog was getting just like yours), switch to a plastic or porcelain bowl. A plastic bowl did the trick for my dog, but I’ve heard of other Dobermans who have this reaction to plastic and need to switch to stainless (which is probably more common, and likely why your breeder was mentioning this). Good luck!

Regarding your statement: “As an example, my Dobie Cooper is sensitive to metal. When he had a metal feeding bowl, the skin on the bottom of his chin (which would rub the bottom of his bowl as he was eating) would dry out and show red bumps. If your dog has a skin reaction to something like this, it can cause drier skin which means more dander in the air from your dog.” My 12 month old dobie has recently gotten these bumps on his chin. My breeder suggested a stainless steel bowl (which I have always used). Any other suggestions to help clear up this condition?
