This is one of the biggest questions out of many that you may have when you think about getting a rottweiler. Let me share something that we all know deep down inside but is not willing to admit, this breed needs to be raised like your child. The method of raising your children will reflect in their behavior as they mature and branch into adulthood. However, if you raise them right, teach them right from wrong and guide them correctly, they will grow into a human who can make our world a better place.
Rottweiler’s are similar in that aspect as are most so called “temperamental dogs”. Train them correctly, socialize with them from an early stage and they will be the best companion that you could ever have. Tie them up, cage them, underfeed them and neglect them to find out the bad side of the dog. Which basically means that you will end up with such an untamed beast, that you wish you never had to come across.
