The Rottweiler is like someone wanted a Doberman, a Pit Bull, a Mastiff, and a Border Collie but could only have one dog. So he asked someone to combine all four. Awesome dogs. =D

Dale, you're absolutely spot on. My wife and I have had Rotts for 30+ years. Treat them right, train them right and you'll have a fantastic dog. Incidentally, our current girl shares her life with a Chow Chow, Brussel's Griffon and Mini-Dachshund, all girls who get on well.

@@wasntme3651 thank you. It’s an interesting dynamic. She’s a typical Chow, loyal but quite aloof with people she doesn’t know. She’s quiet but definitely the one the others look up to amongst themselves. She’s our eighth Chow in 40 years and like all the others will not tolerate aggressive behaviour towards herself or any of the others by another dog. The red mist comes over them.

@@cherrybrandy269 They are a very tough, take no 💩 breed. My mom had one while I was young. His name was Rusty and he was awesome with us but other dogs not so much. We got him when he was a few years old. It destroyed my mom having to have him put to sleep when he got old. Back in those days I was too young to understand. Now after having to have it done to a couple of mine I now understand. My neighbor raised many Chow Chows and his were only about him. One of the toughest breeds IMO. The purple mouths are really cool.

Around 3:30": '...don't cut their tail...' Absolutely true! My parents had their first Rottweiler when I was 16 y/o. Its tail was cut off. That was normal back then. Now I'm in my 60s and I've never had another breed in the house. Back in the early '90, tail docking became prohibited in Europe. All my dogs since then had a full tail. Raising a Rottweiler to a well-behaved dog is easier when the dog has its tail! You learn to read the signs. As if he (she) 'picks up the phone' and tells you what his/her next move will be. You can anticipate that. I'm glad that Mr Cunningham here on the video shares this experience. Thank you, sir. Rottweilers have a certain: "Mmmm, let's see... yesterday's rules do not apply today unless they're to my advantage!" You need to 'rehearse' the rules frequently. Combine that with a fixed daily pattern and it will be easier to learn the dog what you want from him/her.

I finally have a Rottweiler after many years of having Dobermanns. I can definitely tell that Rottweilers are not for beginners. In addition to being very intelligent and loyal, Rottweilers are stubborn, easily distracted and very powerful. The advantage with them is that they can get more easily tired than more energetic dog breeds (if you can spend a couple of short daily sessions playing with them, that would be enough to keep them from being destructive). It is also key to socialize them heavily with other dogs and humans until they are four months old.

My Brother-in-Law had a Rottie close to 30 years ago, One evening when they went out the dog ate a feather pillow. A couple of years after that, my son stayed over night and she ate his jean jacket (everything but the strip with the buttons). He always brought her to the office where we worked so that she could socialize with people. We all took turns playing with her and taking her outside. Fetch and Tug-O-war were her favorites. I used to play Tug-O-War with her using just two of my fingers curled behind her canine teeth.

For some reason I love Rottweilers with a tail back in the day I used to like him with a docktail, but in 2016 I actually like them with a tail because their tail is very thick like a labrador with Dobermen’s. It’s completely different because Dobermen’s have problems with long tails and floppy ears.
