28 Pros and Cons of Owning a Rottweiler

If you’re raising a family, then Rottweilers are a great addition! They’re extremely affectionate towards their family, and they’re great with kids as well. The only caveat to this is very small children who don’t know how to act around dogs properly yet.
So don’t let the stigma put you off Rottweilers. If you’re looking for a family dog, they’re a great choice! Just remember, that when smaller children are around you’ll need to keep an eye on the interaction to make sure your Rottweiler isn’t getting provoked.
If you want a dog who...
Is large, stocky, and muscular;
Is easy to groom;
Is generally calm and confident;
Is very loyal to his family;
Makes an intimidating-looking deterrent.
A Rottweiler may be right for you.
If you don't want to deal with...
An extremely careful search to avoid over-aggressive or unstable lines;
A heavy dog who wants to sit on your feet, lie on your lap, and lean his weight against your leg;
Rowdiness and exuberant jumping when young;
Destructiveness when bored or not exercised enough;
Providing enough socialization so that protectiveness doesn't become aggression;
Potential aggression toward other animals;
Strong-willed mind of his own, requiring a confident owner who can take charge;
Potential drooling (individuals with massive heads and loose lips);
Gassiness (flatulence);
Legal liabilities (public perception, future breed bans, insurance problems, increased chance of lawsuits);
A multitude of serious health problems and a short lifespan.
A Rottweiler may not be right for you.
