If you are going to have Rottweiler it is necessary to remember
the main thing: this dog will make a good friend, reliable
assistant and excellent guardian only if Rottweiler will feel
comfortable and constantly feel care and attention of its owner.
Purchase of Rottweiler–pro et contra
Admires of dogs with exotic, unusual appearance are likely to
choose Rottweiler. Actually, appearance of this sturdy but anyway
well-shaped and with harmonious body animal does not have anything
extravagant compelling attention at once. However Rottweiler is a
powerful and respectable dog.
When being beside Rottweiler its owner will feel always more
assured and quiet. Very often physically strong dog attracts those
people who long to buy it in order to have a wicked and aggressive
bodyguard which has always its wits about it and is ready to
arduously go at all true and false offenders just only on seeing
shadow of disrespect for its owner no matter if it is a glance or
actions of somebody from the wider public.
People suffering from delusion of persecution or having a horror
of robbing and attack in the street, at times think that
Rottweiler is a dog specially bred for that goal. Probably,
opinion about Rottwielers as desperate and hard-bitten fighters
that has formed over centuries may play an important role as for
this choice.
Nevertheless, similar point of view is wrong. It is important to
understand that breed representatives of modern Rottweilers that
were reared as a result of elaborate selection, do not possess
immoderate aggressiveness and temerarious militancy absolutely and
show bellicosity only in critical threatening situations.
In addition one should bear in mind that the owners of
Rottweilers, who fanatically cherish a dream to have a wicked dog
which at the least danger will act as mad lion, during training
very often show violence, mercilessness and even cruelty towards
their pet.
Educating Rottweiler by this way its owner is only able to spoil
the nature of the dog insomuch that Rottweiler will lose all its
excellent inborn abilities and turn into a wicked and snaky
creature, unpredictably aggressive, almost disobedient and even
dangerous for the owner himself.
Future owner of a dog must also remember that mental and physical
development of Rottweiler is very slow and it is necessary to
exercise maximum patience until the animal reaches its age of
maturity and is able to perform the requirements imposed on
tracker dogs with more responsibility.
Such dog is not likely to be able provide dependable safeguard
when it is really necessary, but in fact you will have to expect
this Rottweiler to present unpleasant surprises by exhaling the
aggression accumulated in it and will start to provoke conflicts
with surrounding people including occasional passers-by.
Besides,
similar problems that are caused by incorrect training methods
have respect to any dog breed but not only to Rottweilers.
