The Rottweiler was originally dogs bred to drive cattle to market. Later they were used to pull carts for butchers. They were among the earliest police dogs and serve with honor in the military.
Most important, they are popular family guardians and friends. Novice pet parents should beware, as these dogs are strong and intense.
They need experienced care and training. Consistent, energetic pet parents will find a loving, faithful, and intelligent friend for life in a Rottie!
It’s important to remember that dogs of any breed can suffer from health issues throughout their lives. A good pet insurance plan can help you prepare to give your dog the care they need at any age.
Like the mythical Greek hero Hercules, the Rottweiler is strong and true with a loving heart.
