    Rottweilers!! My parents friend had two of them. I was 12 and playing in the front yard with the dogs. A man tried to pull me over the fence and I was fighting. The male dog ran over and chomped on his arm and the female stood on her brother and almost bit his throat. My dads friend came out and commanded his dogs to release and the man took off down the street. He asked me if I was okay and I said yes and I was told to play with the dogs in the back yard. My mother was grateful and clocked them dinner. I loved those dogs 🥰

    • @apbt067
      @apbt067 11 месяцев назад +29

      Letting kids crawl,pull, and poke dogs is asking for a bite or worse to happen. Dogs have good and bad days same as people they also age at a much faster rate. I grew up with Rottweilers they are great dogs. But if the kids are ole enough they need to be taught to respect the dogs and how to interact with them. Happens to all the time the family dog either gets old or just has a day it doesn’t feel like being pulled or poked and then it gets blamed for biting one of the kids. Hope you know how to read dog body language.

    • @amyfaranso8423
      @amyfaranso8423 11 месяцев назад +42

      @apbt067 I've raised Rottweilers for 35 years. People have no idea what it takes to raise and train them. They get this dog because they look good. After 9 months of no guidance and discipline, it's too late. They know there is no leadership in the house, so they take the position of leadership. They are so intelligent they have figured out the human very young ! Any dog that bites its owner or kids is insecure and had no discipline or direction. I never had these issues be cause I knew exactly what I was getting into. My 4 kids are older now, but I have no regrets raising them with Rottweilers. Never ever aggression ever!!

    My rotty is awesome. Never got trained for protection but he does it naturally. If I’m busy working in my yard, he lays down between me and where potential threats might come from and stays alert until I call him off. He never went after anyone but will stand if someone walks in the property which alerts me of the incoming person, usually a neighbour or a delivery person. He looks at me then looks at the person. As soon as I say ok buddy, he turns in the goofball. Never had an occasion where it was a threat but I feel he would do his job if it ever happens.

    I got bit real bad by our neighbours completely untrained rottie when I was about 17 years old. Left a nasty mark on my arm but luckily no irreversible damage. Took the fucking clown several minutes to get his dog off of me. Never been more scared in my life than at that exact point that beast caught my arm in its mouth, I was 100% sure my whole arm is gone and was just focusing on keeping my head and neck out of reach.
    Ended up getting a rottie myself when I turned 19 and moved out from my childhood home, the absolute best dog I've ever had. Training was rough in the beginning but after that no problems whatsoever.

    Rottweilers are amazing family pets, too.
    My best friend has one and she is just the sweetest. My friend doesn’t have kids, but all of the people at our workplace bring their dogs so her rotti gets to come into work every day, and so she was kind of nervous letting her meet kids since she had never been around them much at all as a puppy. Whenever customers bring their kids, her rotti gets SO excited! The sound of their voice immediately has her whining to go upstairs so she can meet them! She is SO gentle with them, and really the only worry we ever have with her is that she knocks us over sometimes because she forgets she’s chonky and believes she’s a lap dog, so she wants to lean and sit on you 😂 She can get loud and sound a little scary if she barks, but we always reassure people that this is just her play bark, and you will KNOW if it isn’t.
    We only hear her scary bark when she sees someone jogging or wearing a hat, aka she thinks you look suspicious 😂
    I find it funny because she was not trained to do that, but she doesn’t want anyone running up on her protection space or if she can’t clearly identify you.
    I have no doubt she would protect us well if we ever had a situation where we needed it, like a break in or getting attacked.
    She’s super intelligent, and is very good at scaring people whether she’s trying to or not 😂 maybe there’s a reason we’ve not had to see her in action lol
    Poor girl wants to make so many friends but doesn’t know how big her voice is, and how scary just her friendly bark is 😂 but that lil nub is waggin’ so hard, trying to show she just wants belly rubs and to lick your shins 😂

    @brockjensen2473 Год назад +741

    My dad has been a cop for over 30 years and to this day he tells me the worst call he has ever been on was an English Mastiff call.
    In February many years ago 3 kids broke into a families home sometime between 10:30PM & 12:30AM with intentions of robbing them. It’s unclear if the kids thought no one was home or if the house was specifically targeted. Anyways, the parents of the household were out at a work party late and they had 3 kids who were at home. At the time a 16 year old girl, 13 year old boy and a 7 year old girl who they got via foster care when she was 3 and they were lucky enough to adopt her. This next part is sad but it’s relevant. She came from a very abusive home before CPS finally got a tip of the abuse and went over finding her malnourished and terrified of people because of how poorly she was treated by her mother & her step father (who were both arrested and given 20-life with the possibility of parole after 22 years).
    When she got her foster home she refused to be around people because she was terrified what they would do to her because all she has ever known were humans abusing her. The family of the home gave her space and let her get comfortable on her own terms as she had been through a lot. Over the next week they noticed she loved looking out her bedroom window when their neighbors dog was outside. So they made a decision to get her a puppy so she could have something to bond with and hopefully in turn understand love not just pain. Well obviously the dog was an English Mastiff and they did everything together. Slowly overtime this little girl saw her parents taking care of her dog that she loved so dearly and she started to realize they’re helping the dog just like they want to help her. So they became a family ending with her being officially adopted by their foster parents about 3 years after getting her.
    Now that the backstory is out of the way, the 3 boys kicking in the back door and made entry into the house. Obviously startled all 3 of the kids were shaken and the oldest girl made her way to the stairs and looked down to see 2 men in their living room. She screamed and ran towards her younger sisters room where their dog was. Opening her door the dog was very nervous and alert. The bedroom door did not have a lock on it. The 2 men from the living room made their way up the stairs followed by the 3rd guy as well. They opened the door and made the biggest mistake of their lives.
    Protecting his family, the dog jumped on one of them and bit one of the boys on the ankle. His bite was so strong it broke his ankle and I mean absolutely obliterated it. The dog then jumps on the next closest to the room and barely got the kids hand but he took 2 of his fingers right off. The third one was smart enough to run down the stairs during all the commotion but he tripped down the stairs and broke his leg. Seeing the other boy run, the dog went back to the second guy who was still standing up and bit down on his thigh. The dog then returned to the room with the girls where they shut the door and waited for the police to show up. The third guy with the broken leg hobbled out of the house and got picked up by the police about 200 yards from the house but his friends didn’t follow him.
    The 2 boys did not make it. One of them had their femoral artery hit and bleed out in just minutes, the second boy actually had a seizure from the pain he had endured and ended up dying later at the hospital.
    Mastiff’s are in fact great defense dogs

Her favorite snack was cheese, and if she saw a rolled up newspaper, she would P because it would scare her so badly. Her humans were an elderly Italian couple and never once hurt her, but just the thought of them being mad at her just for her to pieces. She was truly the sweetest dog I’ve ever seen. I have a Cane Corso now which I believe is an Italian mastiff… Wow the energy levels are just like night and day.

    I will second what is stated here about the Rottweiler. They are smart, loyal, and will annihilate a person if they feel threatened. If a Rott likes you, you have a friend for life. If a Rott LOVES you, you have a furry Guardian Angel who will move Heaven and Earth to make sure you are safe. If a Rottweiler doesn’t like you…move along and better luck next time because if you cross that dog, you WILL regret it. They don’t bite often, but they more than make up for frequency with severity. Fortunately, they have a good off switch and tend to back off once the perceived threat is gone.

One day I was walking pass his fence as I was semi distracted, I didn’t notice until it was too late that the fence was open. The second I realized it, the dog was semi lunging towards me aggressively.
    I knew I was f’ed so in a split second I knew I can’t run, so I just stood still and averted my eyes in a somewhat submissive stance, when he reached me, he seemed to lessen in aggression and sniffed my hand before going back. I swear my spirit left my body at that moment lol.

He's been trained all his life since there are 2 police officers in our family. Gotta train him well so he can get all the burglars, murderers, etc. He attacks the ones who enter the house territory, the ones who attack my family, so basically all the dangerous/evil people. He's also very cute tho. I love how if someone or something attacks him, he can send them to Jesus. That's a cute fact I hope. He's actually very nice to family. He listens to ppl too.
    Here are his command things:
    Woo: Attack
    Hiya: Stop
    Tratra: Run
    Fah: Wait here
    And more. He also knows the common stuff like sit, lay down, roll, stand on back paws, pray, lick, etc. He has a dog family too, he's the father of 3 dogs, they're all 13. He was bred with a female husky. She was very weak though, unfortunately Skye the husky passed away from old age.

      Our family’s friend has Rottie. Big and massive. My mother is always afraid of her. And I like her. I like big dogs. I always know with whom I talk and always confident for what they are capable.

    Romanian raven shepherd. They are raised to guard livestock against wolves and bears. Minimum weight is typically 9 stone and they can stand at over 6ft on 2 legs. They have a huge, deep bark and are huge. They are fiercely loyal to their pack and if raised with humans they treat you like their pack and love you to the ends of the earth. They protect everything in your house regardless of what it is. If raised as a baby correctly they are brilliant with kids and cats, kittens and babies and gentle with family. Anything other than what they know is never getting near you or anyone with you. Absolutely brilliant with commands and doing exactly what it's told immediately. And they have a incredible stealth mode too. Amazing guardians and protectors but amazing with family.

      Are they prone to be reactive to dogs on walks?

      Do they tend to be reactive to other dogs? How do they get along with other large breed dogs in the home?

    My grandpa had a rottweiler in a cage. It grew up with a labrador retriever.
    The best thing is that both picked up the behavior of one another. The rottweiler was able to behave friendly with the family and any other stranger that didnt try to hurt the family. The labrador was a chasing and barking mashine. And at the end they had become best friends for life. They passed away in a 1 year difference span.😢

    Two guys walked into our house thinking it was the house where the party was. Our Rottweiler just ran to greet them and sat there wanting pets. 😂

    Coming home at night on a bicycle in my village. Suddenly a Rottweiler came from nowhere, followed me for around 200 meters on highspeed. Was quite a chill.
