I grew up with Rotties and I've always hated the stigma that they're vicious and dangerous. If you train and raise them properly in the correct environment, they are fantastic family dogs.
Exactly and the same with pit bulls it’s down to lazy owners who can’t be bothered to put the time and effort into raising and training the dogs right and then that’s where the problems happen because there using there instincts to defend there owners
Exactly. Thanks for your message. Me to I had preconceptions before my first Rottweiler that came from a refuge. As you say "if you train and raise them properly in the correct environment, they are fantastic family dogs". I want to make a therapy dog out of my Rottie, and he will work in a school with children... Not without my Rottweiler 🤩🤩🤩
My beautiful Rottie passed in 2020. She protected my jade workshop in Central America for 2 years, then kept the bears and squirrels away from my cabin in Colorado for 7 more years. She was there for me during my divorce, the toughest time of my life. I wouldn't have made it with out her. Te extrano mucho, mi Gran Xela!
Dog a man`s best friend and ALL of the dog`s that i have had from the age of 10 have proved that. I was told by my dad to bring them as part of the family of which they are.
Ive had dogs for all my like (37years) and we had 2 already and decided to wing it on a rotty. One of the best decisions we ever made. Hes turning 3 soon and of our 3 dogs i trust him alone with my 5 year old niece. The other 2 were rescures and not saying they are mean. I just know how my big boy is and hes extremely gentle and trust worthy. Love this breed
I love the way how each and every Rottweiler of his looks back while going so as to check whether he's coming behind or not. Shows that they see him as the leader of the pack.
My incredible boy Max, passed yesterday from osteosarcoma (bone cancer). He was 9 years old on July 15, 2021. He was my 4th Rottie in 29 years! Yes, I've had Rottweilers since 1992 back when they first began to become really popular and have never been without one since. I can't stop the sudden bouts of tears yet, I know it's too early - , but felt so much better when I found this video... just to hear someone talk about the breed I love so much. Thank you!!!!
This is my 1st one. I ve always had dobbies. But now I see there is a BIG DIFFERENCE in owning a rott. I love him now but wish I would have stuck to what I knew. He is so strong and hard to train. Or I'm just not a good trainer of this breed 😕 I had no problem with my 3 Doberman s I've trained over the last 22yrs. But I'm trying to learn about rotts so I can be a good ower.
@@sabrinaallen5518 Rottweilers can be hard headed. I only have females. I had a male many years ago. He was really big. Very protective without training for it. However, when he didn't get his way he could be stubborn. Age has alot to do with training and letting them know who is the boss. The younger the better.
@jstxr dogs that are great family pets are just like their owners. You know you should check people out before you open you mouth. Dogs have different personalities. They are similar to a toddler in the way they behave and listen to you. Look it up if you don't believe me. Take a step back and look at it. You don't have to agree or disagree just look as an outsider. Training is up to the owner as to how much. I've had great Dogs that I have trained and showed in dog shows and others who learned without training. I had a male Rottweiler once. Oso and he was massive and very obedient but was never trained. I talk to my dogs like I do friends.
My neighbor owned two and they were the sweetest dog and only dogs that could be off leash in our neighborhood. Everyone knew them. The own stated they need a lot of training and time, they were his only and last pair. Zeus and Lydia were the best dogs ever ❤️
I’m getting a Rottweiler pup for the first time soon ! I’ve grown up breeding pure bred boxers & have rescued over 60 dogs, dogs have been such a big part of my life since the age of 5 , I’m watching every video I can to well train & inform myself about this beautiful breed ! 🤍
Our first dog was a Rottweiler! But we had a big house with garden and the whole nature around but the only mistake was not the dog, she was wonderful! It was she had no „dog friend“ on four feet!! It’s so important to have a second one…..I‘ll never do that but we didn’t know very much about that….so the only one I can say: everything you describe about Rotties is RIGHT 😂 if they are educated well they are like Teddybears ❤ Nobody would believe it! I‘m so precious to had such a Super Duper Rottie Girl 😄your Team is really peaceful and they know who‘s the Boss in the house 😂😂
We got a Rottweiler puppy I named Ribeye when he was seven weeks old he is now 15 weeks and weighs around 35 pounds,I am above knee amputee I take Ribeye everywhere with me because I am hoping to be able to use him for some mobility assistance. I’m afraid his energy will pick up later on but right now he’s pretty chilled and laid-back.He can sit, lay, stay, and go in the direction i point him too go in. I realize I have a lot of work to do but I’m up for the challenge. thanks for your channel man great videos!
They are very adaptable as well. Your dog knows you better than anyone, knowing your situation, he may remain calm to serve you, after all that’s what he believes his job truly is ❤️💕
I'm disabled and have an assistance dog (a Lab 10yrs old) that was privately trained for me and my needs. My 8mth old Rottie is naturally taking over from the Lab and allowing him to semi retire. These are intelligent and compassionate dogs that will do anything to please. I'm staggered by the intelligence. Your dog will learn your ways, when to be calm and when it's ok to let rip.
I'm amputated at the hip (hip disartic) and I use my rottweiler for mobility assistance. He increases my walking distance by at least 5x. It gets exhausting walking around without a dog to help pull me.
I'm on my 3rd Rottie. He's a very spoiled 100lb baby named Porter. He loves almost every single person he has met (the 2 he didn't like were not good people) but he doesn't like any other animals. We rescued him from a home that just didn't want him as he was a burden dropped on them by that owners mother when he was 2. He's now 8 and still an awesome part of our family. Rotties are one of the best breeds and I have a hard time thinking of not having one in my life.
I'm on my 3rd Rottweiler now and fell in love with the breed instantly, my dream is to have a big enough property like yours to have several Rottys running around, like 5or6 at once
im telling you there is nothing like the loyalty, respect and unconditional love they give you, there is nothing like it in the world. no one ever will match that ride or die love.
I have been watching videos of Rottweilers for a couple of weeks now and I am very surprised it is the first time I am seeing your channel. You should be within the top 3! Very informative and your Rotties are beautiful. Thank you and I'll subscribed
My thoughts exactly! I watched so many videos as I'm thinking about adopting a Rotti but just today your video popped up for the 1st time. It's the most informative one so far!!
Every Rott I have met have been the biggest, sweetest goofballs. I guess they had good parents as well? Such lovely looking dogs too, love those big square heads on your males.
only was around 1 a lot the first 3 4 visits it wasn't much love even when I called to give her a belly rub but after I couldn't get her off me I thought she was tuff lol just a big ass pillow
The Rottweiler is often misunderstood..it is so nice to see someone who knows the breed so well.Collin you are spot on!! GOOD VIDEO (SHOUT OUT from TEAM ROTTIE) ! :)
I know I had to rehome my 6month old rottweiler because the neighbor's reported for owning a rottweiler saying he was a dangerous dog but had not shown any sign of aggression
@@sharonogbonnaya3507 That is soooo messed up. With the proper training,Rotties are wonderful. They are loyal, highly intelligent and the biggest goofy dogs ever.
@@valerieneal2747 I know he was brilliant he obeyed every command I gave he was a gentle giant with a funny personality he knew how to open the kitchen door an sleep at the top of stairs guarding us while sleeping when out on walk and off his leash in the field I'd tell him to wait and he would until I told him to carry on but because we where living in a council property at the time and threatened with eviction if we didn't get him rehomed I miss this dog so much
Always loved the breed, friend rescued one on death row.I went with him feared for my life,back flips to get at us.To my surprise he took him home.Best dog ever.He didn't even have to train just did.Lost my boxer year ago and adopted 3 month rott now little over year old.So smart,convinced he can solve problems. BEST THING I DID.
Man I really appreciate this video! I love the enthusiasm and attitude. The dogs are absolutely beautiful. I am getting my first one in a few weeks (he will be 8 weeks) and hearing the amount of training and exercise it's gonna require is a little intimidating but I am up for it. I have young children so I really want this dog to love everyone. Is the key having him around and interacting with anyone and everyone I can, whenever I can?
I had a Rott for 19 years. We were once invited to a farm, and my wonderful Abby jumped into the cow field and herded them like she'd always been doing it. The farmer was thrilled, I didn't know what she was going to do with the cows, but she did get them into a tight ball of cows. It was quite entertaining.
all i can say is - they're vicious dogs, if they become angry, there's not much you can do. They are the most loyal dogs I have ever had, even if my cousin is playing around with me, my boy gets into protection mode and just wants to tear him apart, way too difficult t control him in that case
Hubby and I are can’t decide what breed we want as a guard dog when we get a house, rottie or pittie. Rots were my 1st dog as a kid, we had a mom/dad and puppies. But now that I would be the sole owner im a little scared, i am 100lbs wet and dry, how can I manage a dog that will eventually weigh more then me? I want to be able to walk and take them out lol
Before you get a Rottweiler, study 📚 up on the breed to see if it’s the right dog for you. If you do get one the top two things you want to do is training and socialization. This is very important. A well trained and behaved Rottweiler is a absolute joy to own. One that is not can be a dangerous thing.
Years ago when I was working in the garden, planting green beans. The neighbors rott would come over, he knew I was busy so he'd come in close to be petted and ear scratches and then trot ahead a bit further down the way and sit, when I planted that far he'd get more attention.
Thanks for getting the message out there, Collin! In my experience, Rottweilers are some of the sweetest and most loyal four-legged friends a person can have. But as with any other breed of dog, especially the energetic ones, if they are mistreated or not trained and handled properly their energy, size and strength can lead to problems. Unless you know the detailed history of the dog you can rarely be 100% sure of what will trigger a "fight vs flight" episode. With such a big and powerful dog, either of those can be highly destructive to both the dog and people who get in their way. My father always used to say that there is no such thing as a bad dog, just a bad environment. But he also used to say that sometimes you find one you cannot save, and the only times I ever saw him cry (apart from at my mother's funeral) was when he had to put down a dog that was treated so badly that they became too twisted for anyone other than he and I to handle them.
Aww, my Dad was just like that, some of my earliest memories are of feeding orphaned kittens. We have hat rottweilers for almost 30 years, they are the best! But they need so much time, training and attention. We are getting older and rescued a sweet little rott mix.
My VA Registered Service Dog Damian is a Long Haired Rottweiler. Best dog ever. Gentle kind and caring. Very important to introduce them to the neighbors and other Dogs on the neighborhood. Once you do that they become friends with them all.
These dogs are clones of each other in many ways yet they're individuals with superior intelligence and disposition! Just amazing! Your dogs are beautiful 💯👍 well done.
Had a Rottie for 13 years best dog I ever had. A sweet, stoic angel. He was good to my kids and was my buddy. He made me feel safe and loved. My sons friend would come over and hook him up to a leash. He would put on online skates and let Moe take him for a ride!! Great, beautiful dogs
live in uk have had rotties since 1999 have had five including my present one luca,just discovered your chanel and enjoy it a lot the rottie really is the rolls royce of dogs.
I'm glad you brought up the hygiene part of giving them baths and stuff like that there's a lot of people consider animals just animals and I see you with you that you consider them as part of your family my dogs cats are my children and always have been considered my children they can't take care of themselves so as a parent you have to take care of them
I've had a APBT for 9 years now- I took training and socialization very seriously- she is such a well balanced girl. My next dog will be a rottweiler; I feel confident in training one where I spent so much time with my pitty. Always learning new things tho! We also do the added fresh food, ours is more lean meat focused, usually 75% muscle meat and the rest vegetable and organ. We also add tumeric paste to prevent arthritis and inflammation and well as fish oils for joints 😀
My cutie pie rottie is super affectionate, handsome and intelligent! His eyes literally look into my soul. Also, he loves tummy time and being around family... he adores the attention! As a bonus, I let him inside via a doggy door and he NEVER destroyed any of my items that were lying around. All dogs are beautiful animals but my heart will always belong to the rottweiler ❤ Colin great video; very informative and cute rotties! 😍
Just found your channel. Love it. We have had Rotties since 1994 and just lost our Sven to cancer at the age of 14. He was by my side day in and day out. Everything you said is spot on. We lived on an acre and a half and Sven was raised there since he was 5 weeks old. My husband trained our dogs and we are very much aware of taking all precautions with them. We LOVE LOVE LOVE these dogs; however, it is hard to find puppies and right now since our property was destroyed in the CA wildfires,, we have been unable to rebuild our home but when we do, we will begin our search for a new Sven. Thank you for this and I have definitely subscribed.
I just saved my first dog ever and he happens to be a Rottweiler 😭 they were starving him, his tail is SO short 😭 I’ve been so obsessed with them for so long and my heart is so broken that someone would do this to him. He’s so beautiful 😭 I got him gaining weight, got his first round of vaccines and got him dewormed 🥺 he’s doing so much better and is even potty training SUPER well. He’s so smart. And he’s great with my 10 month old son. They don’t hang out much but when they do it’s so cute and I can’t wait to see their bong form 🥺 my heart breaks for this puppy so now I’m following every Rottweiler owner I can 🤣❤️
I just wanted to update! We found out he was taken from his mom too young 😭😭💔💔💔 he nursed in everything and I feel SO sad since I nurse my son. He especially wants to be close to my son and I when we are nursing and I almost wish he was young enough to give him a bottle when we nurse so he didn’t feel left out but I feel like he’s much too old 😭 I dk does anyone know if it would be bad to do for comfort? How can I help him cope? I see him having dreams and it’s SO obvious it’s so sad 😞
@@ronfox5519 he has been the absolute best, stubborn but very easy to train. He’s my first dog and everything I thought having a Dottie would be and more. The stigma behind them is so sad because they’re the BEST family addition
@@cassidysanchez6648 Very true about the stigma. Its a shame. They used to be high on the bite count record, and i dont understand that. Must be because of doing protection wirk or something, because they seem so stable and measured in person.
I don’t like to hear the English pronunciation of the breed Rot-why-lerr I think the right pronunciation (according to the German language) is: Rot-vai-la W is pronounced like V in German I am from Greece, we use the German pronunciation of the word! I had one Rottweiler😢💔
@@Kolious_Thrace Rottweiler, a breed of working dog which is thought to be descended from drover dogs (cattle -driving dogs) left by the Roman legions in Rottweil, Germany, after the Romans abandoned the region during the 2nd century ce.
One of the best channels I have seen on what to know about Rotties - such great advice!!! I have had Rottties and other dogs all my life, and hands down, Rotties are my favorite breed. Like you said, it is absolutely critical to socialize them at a young age, When anyone asks me about getting a Rottie I tell them to do as much research as possible, and as with any big protective breed - socialize, socialize, socialize, and not just with humans - with humans of all ages, other dogs, and other animals. Also, desensitize them as much as possible to things that might startle them when they are young - like a vacum cleaner. I also tell them obediance training is essential from a good trainer who not only trains your pup, but also trains you to train your pup. And that training is for life - reinforce that training as often as possible. Some might think this is cruel, but Rotties love to work. So anytime I feed or give my Rottie a treat, I make her work for it - it is usually a simple set of commands, like sit, lay down, head down - and then she gets her food. The only suggestion I might add is that people might want a fence higher than 4 feet and that goes underground a bit. My current Rottie, who is unbelievably agile and smarter than any Rottie I have ever had before was able to hurdle a 3 and a half foot baby gate from a sitting position at 11 weeks old. I was absolutely shocked when I saw it. Now, she can easily hurdle over a 4 foot fence, she can easily climb it, or just through her sheer power knock it down (or dig under it) depending on how it is set up. she can also easily figure out locks - so how the gate is shut is important as well. I am not sure this is typical for Rotties, I've had them all my life and have never had one as powerful or intelligent as my current Rottie. But, like you indicated, it is better safe than sorry. Thank you for posting such good information about Rotties! :)
As a Rottweiler owner I find this video full of good commonsense advice. They are beautiful dogs but you do have to always be aware that they are also a very powerful guardian breed and it is up to us as owners to know our own dogs and to be aware of any potential "triggers" if you are taking them out for walks etc. Also, as mentioned in the video, adequate fencing is essential. Don't set your dog up for failure. Be the most responsible owner you can be.
@@GreenlifeFin same triggers for most dogs on walks , an unleashed dog who is aggressive who comes running up to yours , or maybe a critter , I know mine can't resist chasing squirrels in the yard , common sense stuff , but some just do not like certain people , my German Shepherds will let me know if theyre not trustworthy , my Rottie loves everyone , he will go off with the Vet and get his shots done no problem, they love him and he's good with other animals, my GS's though are a nope, just different personalities, just know YOUR dog , is the key, I've seen small dogs become aggressive around larger dogs and that can trigger your larger dog to protect you , so just be aware.
Omg I'm so happy I found your channel. I have 4 Rottweilers and a pit and they all get along so well. When I got my first Rottweiler she was so hard to train because I had zero experience with training them. I got my fourth one a few days ago and she loves her brothers and sisters. My pit is 1yrs old (girl). My first Rottweiler is 4yrs old (girl). My second Rott is 3(boy). My third is also 3(boy), and my fourth is 8 weeks (girl). My children love them and the dogs love my children. I definitely recommend getting a Rottweiler as a familiy/guard dog. Most people may say Rottweilers are vicious or mean but its really about how you train them they also need to be introduced to children at a young age.
Great video! We have had a few Rotties and currently have a brother and sister pair, Emma and Stud Muffin. Their mom passed away in April at age 11. We’d had her since she was 9 weeks old and I miss her very much. Your dogs are so beautiful and obviously well loved. Thank you for respecting this breed so much and making this video. As a fellow Rottie Lover, I always appreciate seeing that. Keep up the awesome content!
We had a Rottweiler he climbed chain link fences and it didn’t matter how high it was.He started doing it when he was three months old,couldn’t figure out how he was getting out ,our neighbor caught him doing it. We had a huge pen built with a roof on it he saw a little crack over half way up the fence he pulled it apart and got out.
Such a good video , i founds my self Saying so so many times in this video “that’s a good point he makes” You have such a passion for your dogs and you want to help Ppl that own rotties so sir I genuinely salute you
@@COYBIG1967 kinda like ear piercing. Only hurts for a quick moment and a little proper aftercare. I get peoples side of it on Both sides. We live on a farm and I can tell you Kenai has had his tail caught/hurt on way more stuff including animals/people stepping on them.
Thank you for a great video! I completely enjoyed it. I have a 2yr old and I love her to the moon. I did know about them being herding dogs...she tries to herd me all the time. She is a very lean rottie even though she weighs 90lbs. She can RUN! she is so fast I enrolled her in agility training and she does great. I am eyeing fly ball next...I subscribed to your channel because I like your approach to your dogs and my dog was watching them on the monitor and approved.. Thanks again.
Beautiful 3 Rotties you got there. I've never Owned one but have seen one close up, but chained, on a leash. It was my neighbors. I've never got to get to know one personally, and cuddle with one. These are Beautiful dogs, and I'd never want to see these dogs get upset. Great Video. 🐕❤️👍
Love to see people take care of dogs like this. Heavily misinterpreted animals they are stunning creatures and you put their amazing personality / characteristics to shine!!!
Love Rottys. Love how you aren't one of those dudes that needs their dogs to protect them. Real men protect their dogs, not the other way round. Love the dogs, I got 2 shih tzus and I'll protect them with every ounce I have in me. Thanks for being a loving dude with 3 beautiful doggies, ❤️✌️💪🇨🇦🌏🙏
I spent over a year training her I was so proud of her what a wonderful girl we took a walk in the morning and at night and went to the park constantly she was the perfect companion
I really enjoyed your video a lot. I have had Dobermans and then Rotts. since I was 16. Now I will be 70 in March. I just got a Rott. puppy 3 weeks ago to train to be my service dog. I lost my Rott./ Lab Service Dog to Cancer. I was really glad to see that you put all the responsibility on the people who are responsible for their Rott. People want to blame the dogs for what their trainers don't teach them. Thanks for emphasizing this point . Take care and keep up the good work, BOB.
They're one of my favorite breeds! Those eyebrows always melt my heart! It's like they know how cute they are and just wanna make you feel bad hahaha. I wish rotties had a better reputation. I've NEVER had an issue with one. I've always nothing but warm and loving interactions. You clearly love and take good care of yours. They're such cute [not so] little babies
Your channel somehow popped up on my RUclips list, and it’s crazy because we just got a Rottweiler Wednesday lol. This is the video I didn’t know I needed. Just subscribed.!!!!
They need a lot of training and management. You must spend a lot of time with them the first 2 years and it should be intense and intentional. This goes for the very intelligent dogs and notably, large breeds. Big dogs are super confident. Thanks for sharing because most people make the pet about them and don't invest in the dog...they do that with their own children sometimes as well...
@@Meriysi yes you can but depending of the history of the dog, it can be difficult but not impossible. They will need a balance of love and a lot of attention. If you need help, get with a professional in your area. It will pay off later.
The leash training is a must but it’s also about bonding with your dog and placement for the head is a must I’ve grown up with big dogs my whole life I love Rottweilers & Cane corsos
Loved this video brother been 1 year since I lost my Boxer and he was the biggest sook and most protective dog I ever seen, was spoiled just like your dogs and never had a problem with him, loved till 11 years old! Which is long for a boxer! R.I.P Tyson!
Great video. We just moved from CA to UT and our Rotty misses the pool but loves the snow. They're great family dogs, just make sure to train and socialize.
Great video and tips. I believe I have heard (and saw on a show) that per square inch the rotts bite is the strongest. Your dog set up and your place is a place of love and happiness for those dogs. Great foundation you descibed here for having those dogs. Wonderful animals they are. Props -
We just got a rottweiler he is 11 weeks now he sits lays & gives paw .there tails where docked because when used as working dogs they didn't get trapped or caught in anything
Your rotties are so cute! I did the opposite with leaving stuff out. I left my shoes and bags out on purpose to teach him not to touch them. Now, when he was a puppy I put the items up if I wasn’t home until he knew he wasn’t allowed to touch them while I was gone. The only thing my rottie takes that I couldn’t get him to leave alone is socks 🤣 but he doesn’t touch anything else haha
Thank you Sir, I’m watching the breed for some months now, coming from a boxer-/bulldog-mindset. However, hearing you talk underlines anything you can ever wish from and do for a dog (or a friend). They are just awesome.
We are working on more. I do work 70 hours a week so I’m started a little slower. Trying to get a good groove down so I can bring more content for you guys. Thank you for your support
Thanks for sharing your insights with us, so helpful!! I'm currently thinking about adopting a 1-year old Rotti from a shelter. He's been at a family and were prob. given to the shelter due to time issues. He's such a good boy to humans, doesn't bark but gets very focused on other dogs walking by. I will have a couple of months completely off for him but will then work full time. I would look for some nice dog boarding/some home office days if possible. The question is: do you think I can handle the training that way to raise him to a good behaved dog? Also about kids: Although he's so nice to every human I'm a bit afraid of him to meet kids as I don't know him for long or his past ecperiences. How do I manage the first interactions with children!? Thank you!!
the name for all the male rottweilers were all rocko in spanish it sounds better the female name is rosa and the only husky bella she is a female and gets jelous if you pet the other dogs instead of her
Talking about Rotty names. Worse one I ever heard was on utube and some guy had named his Rotty "Death Row" ....maybe the guy was over compensating for something else ?
Are used to own a Rottweiler. I’m in the process of buying another one. And everything said in this video I can identify with. You definitely love your dogs and it’s beautiful to see.
YES, Rotties are great dog's. I'm in my late 50's owned rot's most of my adult life. By the way anyone wondering rottie's make GREAT nannies for human children once taught how to care for them. Thanks for sharing good looking dogs
Rottweilers love to learn for training and love to make YOU happy as they follow/obey commands. Fantastic breed and easier to train than many other breeds.
I grew up with Rotties and I've always hated the stigma that they're vicious and dangerous. If you train and raise them properly in the correct environment, they are fantastic family dogs.
Exactly and the same with pit bulls it’s down to lazy owners who can’t be bothered to put the time and effort into raising and training the dogs right and then that’s where the problems happen because there using there instincts to defend there owners
Agreed. I have a Rottweiler and she's the most friendly dog I've ever raised.
My gma had one he was super good and we’ll trained and also protective

I'm so sorry. When mine passed away it was like losing an arm. I thought I would be okay without any more dogs. But I was wrong.
This is my 1st one. I ve always had dobbies. But now I see there is a BIG DIFFERENCE in owning a rott. I love him now but wish I would have stuck to what I knew. He is so strong and hard to train. Or I'm just not a good trainer of this breed 😕 I had no problem with my 3 Doberman s I've trained over the last 22yrs. But I'm trying to learn about rotts so I can be a good ower.
@@sabrinaallen5518 Rottweilers can be hard headed. I only have females. I had a male many years ago. He was really big. Very protective without training for it. However, when he didn't get his way he could be stubborn. Age has alot to do with training and letting them know who is the boss. The younger the better.
@@sabrinaallen5518 Stick with him... you're going to do just fine. Patience and perseverance....
@jstxr dogs that are great family pets are just like their owners. You know you should check people out before you open you mouth. Dogs have different personalities. They are similar to a toddler in the way they behave and listen to you. Look it up if you don't believe me. Take a step back and look at it. You don't have to agree or disagree just look as an outsider. Training is up to the owner as to how much. I've had great Dogs that I have trained and showed in dog shows and others who learned without training. I had a male Rottweiler once. Oso and he was massive and very obedient but was never trained. I talk to my dogs like I do friends.
My neighbor owned two and they were the sweetest dog and only dogs that could be off leash in our neighborhood. Everyone knew them. The own stated they need a lot of training and time, they were his only and last pair. Zeus and Lydia were the best dogs ever ❤️
They are great dogs ❤️
There's a rotty called zeus where I live lol
My Rottweiler passed last month a few days before his birthday. He was born on 12/12/2012. I miss him so much :(.
I'm very sorry for your loss
@@HEAVYMETALmovie1981 ty
Sorry to hear that, that's always hard. Just be glad that you had the opportunity to have had such a friend they wouldn't want you to be sad.
@@aleksandrkirilenko1687 I come home and fall asleep on the ground with my baby :(
So sorry to hear that.
I owned a Rotti for 10 years back in the 80's and 90's. Watching these videos makes me want to own another one!
A rottie's behaviour is the reflection of it's owner👍
All dogs.
I’m getting a Rottweiler pup for the first time soon ! I’ve grown up breeding pure bred boxers & have rescued over 60 dogs, dogs have been such a big part of my life since the age of 5 , I’m watching every video I can to well train & inform myself about this beautiful breed ! 🤍
Best of luck!
i am soon to get my sixth rottie ,believe me they are something else to share your life with ,enjoy.
@@TheRottyRanch up
Our first dog was a Rottweiler! But we had a big house with garden and the whole nature around but the only mistake was not the dog, she was wonderful! It was she had no „dog friend“ on four feet!! It’s so important to have a second one…..I‘ll never do that but we didn’t know very much about that….so the only one I can say: everything you describe about Rotties is RIGHT 😂 if they are educated well they are like Teddybears ❤ Nobody would believe it! I‘m so precious to had such a Super Duper Rottie Girl 😄your Team is really peaceful and they know who‘s the Boss in the house 😂😂
We got a Rottweiler puppy I named Ribeye when he was seven weeks old he is now 15 weeks and weighs around 35 pounds,I am above knee amputee I take Ribeye everywhere with me because I am hoping to be able to use him for some mobility assistance. I’m afraid his energy will pick up later on but right now he’s pretty chilled and laid-back.He can sit, lay, stay, and go in the direction i point him too go in. I realize I have a lot of work to do but I’m up for the challenge. thanks for your channel man great videos!
They are very adaptable as well.
Your dog knows you better than anyone, knowing your situation, he may remain calm to serve you, after all that’s what he believes his job truly is ❤️💕
hes a working dog and wants to please you. he will probly be fine
I'm disabled and have an assistance dog (a Lab 10yrs old) that was privately trained for me and my needs. My 8mth old Rottie is naturally taking over from the Lab and allowing him to semi retire.
These are intelligent and compassionate dogs that will do anything to please. I'm staggered by the intelligence. Your dog will learn your ways, when to be calm and when it's ok to let rip.
My Rottweiler is 5 months old his name is diesel
I'm amputated at the hip (hip disartic) and I use my rottweiler for mobility assistance. He increases my walking distance by at least 5x. It gets exhausting walking around without a dog to help pull me.
I'm on my 3rd Rottie. He's a very spoiled 100lb baby named Porter. He loves almost every single person he has met (the 2 he didn't like were not good people) but he doesn't like any other animals. We rescued him from a home that just didn't want him as he was a burden dropped on them by that owners mother when he was 2. He's now 8 and still an awesome part of our family. Rotties are one of the best breeds and I have a hard time thinking of not having one in my life.
I'm on my 3rd Rottweiler now and fell in love with the breed instantly, my dream is to have a big enough property like yours to have several Rottys running around, like 5or6 at once
Nice
im telling you there is nothing like the loyalty, respect and unconditional love they give you, there is nothing like it in the world. no one ever will match that ride or die love.
I love your channel. You give us so much info about rottweilers without making it sound like a book report
Thank you. I try and do a good job for you guys.
I have been watching videos of Rottweilers for a couple of weeks now and I am very surprised it is the first time I am seeing your channel. You should be within the top 3! Very informative and your Rotties are beautiful.
Thank you and I'll subscribed
Thank you so much. Welcome to the Channel.
My thoughts exactly! I watched so many videos as I'm thinking about adopting a Rotti but just today your video popped up for the 1st time. It's the most informative one so far!!
“But you’re perfect too”
Awh this guy is sooo caring
:)
Every Rott I have met have been the biggest, sweetest goofballs. I guess they had good parents as well? Such lovely looking dogs too, love those big square heads on your males.
Thank you! Everyone I’ve met is a love bug too!
only was around 1 a lot the first 3 4 visits it wasn't much love even when I called to give her a belly rub but after I couldn't get her off me I thought she was tuff lol just a big ass pillow

Beautiful babies. So nice to see that they are with people that love them as part of the family.

The Rottweiler is often misunderstood..it is so nice to see someone who knows the breed so well.Collin you are spot on!! GOOD VIDEO (SHOUT OUT from TEAM ROTTIE) ! :)
Thank you!
I know I had to rehome my 6month old rottweiler because the neighbor's reported for owning a rottweiler saying he was a dangerous dog but had not shown any sign of aggression
@@sharonogbonnaya3507 That is soooo messed up.
With the proper training,Rotties are wonderful.
They are loyal, highly intelligent and the biggest goofy dogs ever.
@@valerieneal2747 I know he was brilliant he obeyed every command I gave he was a gentle giant with a funny personality he knew how to open the kitchen door an sleep at the top of stairs guarding us while sleeping when out on walk and off his leash in the field I'd tell him to wait and he would until I told him to carry on but because we where living in a council property at the time and threatened with eviction if we didn't get him rehomed I miss this dog so much
I’m not going to lie I get nervous with my 1 year old
Always loved the breed, friend rescued one on death row.I went with him feared for my life,back flips to get at us.To my surprise he took him home.Best dog ever.He didn't even have to train just did.Lost my boxer year ago and adopted 3 month rott now little over year old.So smart,convinced he can solve problems. BEST THING I DID.
I grew up with rotties and my parents bred them for four years. by far one of my favorite dog breeds
They are so great!
Man I really appreciate this video! I love the enthusiasm and attitude. The dogs are absolutely beautiful. I am getting my first one in a few weeks (he will be 8 weeks) and hearing the amount of training and exercise it's gonna require is a little intimidating but I am up for it. I have young children so I really want this dog to love everyone. Is the key having him around and interacting with anyone and everyone I can, whenever I can?
Yes! Early and often!
They need socialization and trading! Obedience classes are not optional, but they are absolutely wonderful dogs
Training
I had a Rott for 19 years. We were once invited to a farm, and my wonderful Abby jumped into the cow field and herded them like she'd always been doing it. The farmer was thrilled, I didn't know what she was going to do with the cows, but she did get them into a tight ball of cows. It was quite entertaining.
Yo your Rotty lasted 19 years? That's insane.
19 years!! What was his diet?
I plan to get a rottweiler in the future, you had some great tips I havent heard before! great vid
Thank you! Welcome to the channel!
all i can say is - they're vicious dogs, if they become angry, there's not much you can do. They are the most loyal dogs I have ever had, even if my cousin is playing around with me, my boy gets into protection mode and just wants to tear him apart, way too difficult t control him in that case
@@sanskartewatia4320 I'm a woman so you think i couldn't control if he gets mad? I have one who is 4months old
Hubby and I are can’t decide what breed we want as a guard dog when we get a house, rottie or pittie. Rots were my 1st dog as a kid, we had a mom/dad and puppies. But now that I would be the sole owner im a little scared, i am 100lbs wet and dry, how can I manage a dog that will eventually weigh more then me? I want to be able to walk and take them out lol
Before you get a Rottweiler, study 📚 up on the breed to see if it’s the right dog for you. If you do get one the top two things you want to do is training and socialization. This is very important. A well trained and behaved Rottweiler is a absolute joy to own. One that is not can be a dangerous thing.
Years ago when I was working in the garden, planting green beans. The neighbors rott would come over, he knew I was busy so he'd come in close to be petted and ear scratches and then trot ahead a bit further down the way and sit, when I planted that far he'd get more attention.
Awesome tips. Really like how you addressed the owner's responsibility. Great looking rotties. Best dogs ever!
Thank you! Be sure to check out some other videos ❤️
Thanks for getting the message out there, Collin!
In my experience, Rottweilers are some of the sweetest and most loyal four-legged friends a person can have. But as with any other breed of dog, especially the energetic ones, if they are mistreated or not trained and handled properly their energy, size and strength can lead to problems.
Unless you know the detailed history of the dog you can rarely be 100% sure of what will trigger a "fight vs flight" episode. With such a big and powerful dog, either of those can be highly destructive to both the dog and people who get in their way.
My father always used to say that there is no such thing as a bad dog, just a bad environment. But he also used to say that sometimes you find one you cannot save, and the only times I ever saw him cry (apart from at my mother's funeral) was when he had to put down a dog that was treated so badly that they became too twisted for anyone other than he and I to handle them.
Agreed! Bad owners!
Aww, my Dad was just like that, some of my earliest memories are of feeding orphaned kittens. We have hat rottweilers for almost 30 years, they are the best! But they need so much time, training and attention. We are getting older and rescued a sweet little rott mix.
My VA Registered Service Dog Damian is a Long Haired Rottweiler. Best dog ever. Gentle kind and caring. Very important to introduce them to the neighbors and other Dogs on the neighborhood. Once you do that they become friends with them all.
Love it!
I’m a va vet help how you get one and I need more info any links
I swear if someone try’s to rob yo house they finna die 😂😂

@@TheRottyRanch My childhood Rottweiler was a mellow fellow & thought he was a human being
These dogs are clones of each other in many ways yet they're individuals with superior intelligence and disposition! Just amazing! Your dogs are beautiful 💯👍 well done.
Thank you so much!
Welcome to the channel!
While watching the videos you get a glimpse of their individual personalities. It’s so sweet and cute 🥰
I love your bedroom! Minimalist chic ❤️ Also super informative video. I just adopted a rotty mix and love learning about their parentage.
Had a Rottie for 13 years best dog I ever had. A sweet, stoic angel. He was good to my kids and was my buddy. He made me feel safe and loved. My sons friend would come over and hook him up to a leash. He would put on online skates and let Moe take him for a ride!! Great, beautiful dogs
live in uk have had rotties since 1999 have had five including my present one luca,just discovered your chanel and enjoy it a lot the rottie really is the rolls royce of dogs.
Agreed! they're incredible!
Thank you for being such a good Rottweiler Dad ❤💎 Beautiful dogs 💜❤💛
:)
I'm glad you brought up the hygiene part of giving them baths and stuff like that there's a lot of people consider animals just animals and I see you with you that you consider them as part of your family my dogs cats are my children and always have been considered my children they can't take care of themselves so as a parent you have to take care of them
I've had a APBT for 9 years now- I took training and socialization very seriously- she is such a well balanced girl. My next dog will be a rottweiler; I feel confident in training one where I spent so much time with my pitty. Always learning new things tho! We also do the added fresh food, ours is more lean meat focused, usually 75% muscle meat and the rest vegetable and organ. We also add tumeric paste to prevent arthritis and inflammation and well as fish oils for joints 😀
Exactly what we do!
A dog's diet is very important especially in regards to health problems later on as they get older
My cutie pie rottie is super affectionate, handsome and intelligent! His eyes literally look into my soul. Also, he loves tummy time and being around family... he adores the attention! As a bonus, I let him inside via a doggy door and he NEVER destroyed any of my items that were lying around. All dogs are beautiful animals but my heart will always belong to the rottweiler ❤ Colin great video; very informative and cute rotties! 😍
Just found your channel. Love it. We have had Rotties since 1994 and just lost our Sven to cancer at the age of 14. He was by my side day in and day out. Everything you said is spot on. We lived on an acre and a half and Sven was raised there since he was 5 weeks old. My husband trained our dogs and we are very much aware of taking all precautions with them. We LOVE LOVE LOVE these dogs; however, it is hard to find puppies and right now since our property was destroyed in the CA wildfires,, we have been unable to rebuild our home but when we do, we will begin our search for a new Sven. Thank you for this and I have definitely subscribed.
Welcome!
I just saved my first dog ever and he happens to be a Rottweiler 😭 they were starving him, his tail is SO short 😭 I’ve been so obsessed with them for so long and my heart is so broken that someone would do this to him. He’s so beautiful 😭 I got him gaining weight, got his first round of vaccines and got him dewormed 🥺 he’s doing so much better and is even potty training SUPER well. He’s so smart. And he’s great with my 10 month old son. They don’t hang out much but when they do it’s so cute and I can’t wait to see their bong form 🥺 my heart breaks for this puppy so now I’m following every Rottweiler owner I can 🤣❤️
I just wanted to update! We found out he was taken from his mom too young 😭😭💔💔💔 he nursed in everything and I feel SO sad since I nurse my son. He especially wants to be close to my son and I when we are nursing and I almost wish he was young enough to give him a bottle when we nurse so he didn’t feel left out but I feel like he’s much too old 😭 I dk does anyone know if it would be bad to do for comfort? How can I help him cope? I see him having dreams and it’s SO obvious it’s so sad 😞
Thank you for taking care of him
Hes gonna bond to you real strong. Any dog is greatful for being saved, but a rott.... its permanate.
@@ronfox5519 he has been the absolute best, stubborn but very easy to train. He’s my first dog and everything I thought having a Dottie would be and more. The stigma behind them is so sad because they’re the BEST family addition
@@cassidysanchez6648
Very true about the stigma.
Its a shame. They used to be high on the bite count record, and i dont understand that. Must be because of doing protection wirk or something, because they seem so stable and measured in person.
Fact: They get their name from the town which they are originally from... Rottweil Germany.
I don’t like to hear the English pronunciation of the breed
Rot-why-lerr
I think the right pronunciation (according to the German language) is:
Rot-vai-la
W is pronounced like V in German
I am from Greece, we use the German pronunciation of the word!
I had one Rottweiler😢💔
Thanks for sharing!
nope they came from rome empire
@@simbazilstorff they might be used by the Romans but the breed is from Germany!

One of the best channels I have seen on what to know about Rotties - such great advice!!! I have had Rottties and other dogs all my life, and hands down, Rotties are my favorite breed. Like you said, it is absolutely critical to socialize them at a young age, When anyone asks me about getting a Rottie I tell them to do as much research as possible, and as with any big protective breed - socialize, socialize, socialize, and not just with humans - with humans of all ages, other dogs, and other animals. Also, desensitize them as much as possible to things that might startle them when they are young - like a vacum cleaner. I also tell them obediance training is essential from a good trainer who not only trains your pup, but also trains you to train your pup. And that training is for life - reinforce that training as often as possible. Some might think this is cruel, but Rotties love to work. So anytime I feed or give my Rottie a treat, I make her work for it - it is usually a simple set of commands, like sit, lay down, head down - and then she gets her food. The only suggestion I might add is that people might want a fence higher than 4 feet and that goes underground a bit. My current Rottie, who is unbelievably agile and smarter than any Rottie I have ever had before was able to hurdle a 3 and a half foot baby gate from a sitting position at 11 weeks old. I was absolutely shocked when I saw it. Now, she can easily hurdle over a 4 foot fence, she can easily climb it, or just through her sheer power knock it down (or dig under it) depending on how it is set up. she can also easily figure out locks - so how the gate is shut is important as well. I am not sure this is typical for Rotties, I've had them all my life and have never had one as powerful or intelligent as my current Rottie. But, like you indicated, it is better safe than sorry. Thank you for posting such good information about Rotties! :)
New rotty owner of two females and a new subscriber from Alberta Canada 🇨🇦
As a Rottweiler owner I find this video full of good commonsense advice. They are beautiful dogs but you do have to always be aware that they are also a very powerful guardian breed and it is up to us as owners to know our own dogs and to be aware of any potential "triggers" if you are taking them out for walks etc. Also, as mentioned in the video, adequate fencing is essential. Don't set your dog up for failure. Be the most responsible owner you can be.
Thanks for watching!
What kind of triggers could they be? I really much like rotties but the idea of sudden triggers is a bit scary.
@@GreenlifeFin same triggers for most dogs on walks , an unleashed dog who is aggressive who comes running up to yours , or maybe a critter , I know mine can't resist chasing squirrels in the yard , common sense stuff , but some just do not like certain people , my German Shepherds will let me know if theyre not trustworthy , my Rottie loves everyone , he will go off with the Vet and get his shots done no problem, they love him and he's good with other animals, my GS's though are a nope, just different personalities, just know YOUR dog , is the key, I've seen small dogs become aggressive around larger dogs and that can trigger your larger dog to protect you , so just be aware.
Omg I'm so happy I found your channel. I have 4 Rottweilers and a pit and they all get along so well. When I got my first Rottweiler she was so hard to train because I had zero experience with training them. I got my fourth one a few days ago and she loves her brothers and sisters. My pit is 1yrs old (girl). My first Rottweiler is 4yrs old (girl). My second Rott is 3(boy). My third is also 3(boy), and my fourth is 8 weeks (girl). My children love them and the dogs love my children. I definitely recommend getting a Rottweiler as a familiy/guard dog. Most people may say Rottweilers are vicious or mean but its really about how you train them they also need to be introduced to children at a young age.
For treats I always give cooked or raw meats, and the adjust their meals depending on how much they have 💜
Thank you for ur program..I love ur babies. Your all wonderful. God bless you all. Love from Rose in The South coast Sydney Australia❤❤❤❤
Great video! We have had a few Rotties and currently have a brother and sister pair, Emma and Stud Muffin. Their mom passed away in April at age 11. We’d had her since she was 9 weeks old and I miss her very much. Your dogs are so beautiful and obviously well loved. Thank you for respecting this breed so much and making this video. As a fellow Rottie Lover, I always appreciate seeing that. Keep up the awesome content!
We had a Rottweiler he climbed chain link fences and it didn’t matter how high it was.He started doing it when he was three months old,couldn’t figure out how he was getting out ,our neighbor caught him doing it.
We had a huge pen built with a roof on it he saw a little crack over half way up the fence he pulled it apart and got out.
Dogs are very smart.
Hahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

@@TheRottyRanch can I ask one more thing, what’s your personal opinion on docking tails?

Rotts r hands down the best family dog one could ever hope to have. 🐶🐕🐶🐕
They need a lot of training and management. You must spend a lot of time with them the first 2 years and it should be intense and intentional. This goes for the very intelligent dogs and notably, large breeds. Big dogs are super confident. Thanks for sharing because most people make the pet about them and don't invest in the dog...they do that with their own children sometimes as well...
Yes they do
I am about to adopt a 2 year old rottie rescue. Can I teach a dog his age some manners? Apparently he has bad walking manners.
@@Meriysi yes you can but depending of the history of the dog, it can be difficult but not impossible. They will need a balance of love and a lot of attention. If you need help, get with a professional in your area. It will pay off later.
So wholesome and infomative youre a great personality i really wanna have a rotty too
Thank you!
The leash training is a must but it’s also about bonding with your dog and placement for the head is a must I’ve grown up with big dogs my whole life I love Rottweilers & Cane corsos
Leash training is very important.
Loved this video brother been 1 year since I lost my Boxer and he was the biggest sook and most protective dog I ever seen, was spoiled just like your dogs and never had a problem with him, loved till 11 years old! Which is long for a boxer! R.I.P Tyson!
Great video. We just moved from CA to UT and our Rotty misses the pool but loves the snow. They're great family dogs, just make sure to train and socialize.
We sure do.
Yea we need a pool.
Gosh, your dogs are so cute! I can imagine having them all laying on you while you sleep and snoring in your face :D
Hahahah its fun, sometimes :D
Hi
I don’t like dogs just horses
They are very cute, love them. Thank you for a wonderful vdo.
Thank you very much!
I love it when they wiggle their tails! They are beautiful
Great video and tips. I believe I have heard (and saw on a show) that per square inch the rotts bite is the strongest. Your dog set up and your place is a place of love and happiness for those dogs. Great foundation you descibed here for having those dogs. Wonderful animals they are. Props -
Everything you have said is true! We had several rotties. Our last one was a ski patrol dog, loved the snow, loved the people, specially kids!

We just got a rottweiler he is 11 weeks now he sits lays & gives paw .there tails where docked because when used as working dogs they didn't get trapped or caught in anything
Love this! Welcome to the channel!
it was funny cause as soon as you said rottweilers snore a lot mine started snoring really load.😂
😂😂😂
Your rotties are so cute!
I did the opposite with leaving stuff out. I left my shoes and bags out on purpose to teach him not to touch them. Now, when he was a puppy I put the items up if I wasn’t home until he knew he wasn’t allowed to touch them while I was gone. The only thing my rottie takes that I couldn’t get him to leave alone is socks 🤣 but he doesn’t touch anything else haha
nice work!
I used to have a Rotties. She was the ofi-est dog, very goodie! Very loyal and protective of us!

He's been at a family and were prob. given to the shelter due to time issues. He's such a good boy to humans, doesn't bark but gets very focused on other dogs walking by. I will have a couple of months completely off for him but will then work full time. I would look for some nice dog boarding/some home office days if possible. The question is: do you think I can handle the training that way to raise him to a good behaved dog? Also about kids: Although he's so nice to every human I'm a bit afraid of him to meet kids as I don't know him for long or his past ecperiences. How do I manage the first interactions with children!? Thank you!!
One fact about rottweilers, 1/4 males are named Bruno
I did not know that!
the name for all the male rottweilers were all rocko in spanish it sounds better the female name is rosa and the only husky bella she is a female and gets jelous if you pet the other dogs instead of her
🤣🤣🤣
Talking about Rotty names. Worse one I ever heard was on utube and some guy had named his Rotty "Death Row" ....maybe the guy was over compensating for something else ?

Congratulations!

Gonna b a big one. So jealous
Are used to own a Rottweiler. I’m in the process of buying another one. And everything said in this video I can identify with. You definitely love your dogs and it’s beautiful to see.
I thank God for You. Love, Light, Peace, Music and Joy
Awh thank you so much! Much love sent your way!
We have a German Shepard and the whole tail thing and stuff on the ground is relatable 😂
Soooo true!
My Rotti was diabetic, but she live to 25. I'm an RN, so I guess God decided I could manage her. She was the best dog I've ever had.
That is EXACTLY the description of my Molly. RIP my girl
Rip Molly!
Gorgeous dogs and adorable! As an adult dog my Rottie loved carrots and tomatoes. I used to reward her with baby carrots.
We love carrots!
YES, Rotties are great dog's. I'm in my late 50's owned rot's most of my adult life. By the way anyone wondering rottie's make GREAT nannies for human children once taught how to care for them. Thanks for sharing good looking dogs
Rotties used to be used to pull carts for butchers. They protected the money bags kept around their necks and we're known as Butcher Dogs. 😊
Someone's been studying
Yes they were thanks for sharing!
They are such good looking and happy dogs. I can tell you take very good care of them and they're very spoiled 😆.
Awh thank you!
Rottweilers love to learn for training and love to make YOU happy as they follow/obey commands. Fantastic breed and easier to train than many other breeds.
Couldn't agree more!
I just got my first Rottweiler, thank you so much for your tips and advice!
Awe ❤❤❤you are so blessed to have them beautiful babies, miss my boy he was a great dog 🐕❤
