The Rottweiler is a dog of one owner. It is difficult for animals to endure a change of owner: they fall into depression, rush into the run, and reveal uncontrolled aggression. If, in the presence of a pet, you pet or treat another animal, be prepared to observe the dog’s discontent and jealousy in all its glory. Rottweilers do not like to share the attention of the owner with other four-legged brothers.
Rottweilers were once used as herding dogs. The Rottweilers we know today are supposed to be the descendants of Asian mastiffs.
Towards the middle of the 19th century, paved roads and railroads started to change how livestock was brought to the market. Herding dogs were no longer needed when transporting cattle, so Rottweilers found themselves out of a job.
It’s thought that the first Rottweiler came to the U.S. with a German immigrant in the late 1920s.
