Hi, Rottweiler lovers, and thank you for visiting LivingWithARottweiler.com. Dog ownership can be daunting and frustrating for even the most experienced dog owner. Many new dog owners fail to plan before bringing a new puppy home for the first time. We all become enamored with our puppies but forget that they require much time, effort, and dedication.
As a child, my parents introduced me to pets (dogs in particular) at a young age. I vaguely remember my first dog, Sugar (a collie), but I do remember the stories my parents would always tell me about Sugar. Throughout the years, other dogs followed: Champagne (a standard poodle), Coco and Coffee (Dashhounds), Shioot, Kojak, and Brandy (Dobermann Pinschers).
I love dogs of many breeds. However, as an adult, I was introduced to the Rottweiler breed by a coworker who had puppies. At that time, I lacked any personal knowledge of the breed’s history, past or present, but I decided to go all in with owning my first Rottweiler, whom I named Samson. Since owning Samson, I have fallen in love with the Rottweiler breed.
I hope to impart what I have learned over the past ten years to those who plan on selecting the breed in the future and those who may need a little help on how to live with such a majestic dog as the Rottweiler. The Rottweiler breed can be confident and obedient or unruly and out of control.
The goal of living with a Rottweiler is to bring other owners, future owners, and the curious together to create a community that will enable others, including Living with a Rottweiler.com, to ultimately learn how to care for, manage, and train Rottweilers.
Anthony,
