History of the Rottweiler:
The Rottweiler’s history dates back to the Roman Empire, where these medium-large, black and mahogany colored dogs herded live cattle that were used to feed the Roman legions. The dog remained an important part of the cattle region but declined in the 19th century, until the buildup towards WWI and the need for ‘police dogs’. The Rottweiler’s strength, intelligence and ‘trainability’ made it a natural guard dog. This breed requires good training from a solid, competent owner who is capable of providing firm guidance and possesses the physical strength needed to control the dog. Over the last several years and due to poor breeding, inadequate training and/or abuse, attacks on humans (especially children left alone) have led to the classification of Rottweilers as ‘dangerous dogs’, although most reputable owners/breeders would describe these animals as loyal, loving, protective and fond of children. However, because of the dog’s size, strength and natural guarding tendencies, its best to monitor them and ensure that they’re never left with anyone who’s incapable of handling them.
