Anyone here have a rottweiler?

Dear god no
Thats one step above a pit

Get a lab or something that wont eat your kids

we not allowed to ask about posters race

Get a Corso. BEST dog I've owned.

Sweet little puppers, ours haven’t even killed anyone yet

I had a lab rot mix that was the best and smartest dog I've ever had. My brother had a full rot that was a very great dog too.

Smart and loyal dogs, but you have to train it and establish and maintain "dominance" early.

Is this just the cool internet thing to say about dogs

For all the reasonable people.. i do have a newborn due in a month, but we're moving to almost 10acres in south GA so whichever dog we get will have ample room to cut loose

At LaTech in the 80's one of the defensive lineman brought his rotties over to the area between Neilsen and Caruthers dorms. It was a momma and her male pup. The student was huge, like 280-320 and all of it muscle.

Anyway, momma was on leash, 9 month old pup loose but well trained so he'd come when called and such...except stray mutts (3) came through the area. Rott pup wanted to play but momma was protective.

Took about a month for the ski tracks to grow back in the grass where big ol' defensive lineman dug in his heels and only slowed momma down as she steadily progressed toward the lone dumb mutt that stayed to play with pup. Momma got almost within striking distance when mutt decided it was time to go. 90 degree change of direction in the ski tracks.

TLDR: Full grown Rotty gonna go wherever it wants, when it wants.

make sure you tell your insurance agent or landlord

Rots are incredibly devoted and protective of their families, children especially.

This is consistent with pretty much everything Ive read. I was willing to be called "trashy" by a few douches to get real opinions
