I have always been intrigued by the dobro, so looking to get started. I've got my lesson sources so what I'm asking guidance/opinions on is what would be a good medium priced dobro to get?

I know these things can get pricey, but are there any good solid instruments in the $500 - $1000 range?

Open to suggestions, Thank you in advance for your time and effort in replying.

You will get good advice here, but also take your question over to the reso site:

You may be able to get a Redline or Appalachian resonator guitar (made in the US) for around the top end of your budget. For less money, the Gold Tone Beard guitars are hard to beat.
