The German Rottweiler is a very powerful deep
chested and muscular looking dog with
dark eyes short black hair and tan markings
on its muzzle, cheeks, legs, chest, under
its tail and above its eyes. The Rottie
stands anywhere from 22 to 27 inches
at the shoulder and weighs in at 70 to
130 lbs. with a tail typically docked at the first joint.
The Rottweiler was developed in the small
village of Rottweil in southern Germany.
According to historians they are descendants
of the camp dogs that followed the Roman
legions during their conquest of southern
Europe some 1900 years ago.
The Rottweiler requires moderate exercise
to reduce boredom and potentially destructive
behavior. The Rottie is generally a calm, intellegent
and quick learning dog. With proper socialization
and training the Rottie makes an obedient, loving and very affectionate family pet...But
intruders beware.
