Rottweiler Breeders

 

Carefully investigate breeders before you buy a puppy. Talk to several breeders and ask them for names of people you can contact who have purchased puppies from them in the last few years.

Having thoroughly acquainted yourself with the standard for the breed, carefully evaluated several breeders, hopefully seen a number of puppies and adults, and satisfied that the breeding of the puppies you are looking at fits your needs, you are ready to select your puppy. Begin by observing the behavior of the dam (and sire, if available). Ideally, the dam will be calm and steady, possibly even curious or friendly toward you. If she is reserved, that is quite acceptable by Rottweiler standards, but the openly hostile female which does not respond to her owner's reassurances, or a shrinking, cowardly, or shy bitch is undesirable. In Germany, the temperament of the breeding stock is tested and those unstable qualities are excluded from breeding. Disqualifying traits include; shyness, nervousness, unwarranted viciousness and emotional instability. The temperament of the sire is important too; it is best to observe both parents, if possible.

Puppies should be playful, inquisitive and trusting of humans. They should submit to gentle handling and respond to their environment.
