Here is my new Rott got him on 11/28/2008 he has been a handful, but he is definately my buddy and loves to go everywhere I go. Already knows sit,stay,lay, and shake (although still forgets every now and then) He is also potty trained with the occasional accident (less than 1 a week now though)He is the smartest dog I have ever owned.
His name is Nero: Day 1 
Favorite way to sleep: 
Favorite place to sit:

Excuse the dust we just finished remolding the kitchen.

Without trying to Hi-Jack here... I want a Rott but my wife thinks they will be too aggressive with my 5 and 7 yr old kids. Suggestions as to selling her on Rotts? At 5 and 7, they are just about right for a Rott puppy. 
To the OP: Good looking pup. You probably will never own a more loyal and smart dog. I know I won't. |

I would start out with a pup...That way you can train them into what you expect out of their behavior. We have an 8 week old Rottie pup and my MIL keeps saying it will eat my kids one day. She is uneducated about them. Rotts attack less than mixed breeds, German shepards, chows, pitts, etc. When on the rare occasion they do attack they can kill, thus all of the bad things you hear on TV. With the millions of Rotts in the world there would be a hell of a lot more Rott related deaths than there are. ANYTHING THAT HAS TEETH CAN BITE AND POTENTIALLY KILL YOU. My kids are 8 and 5. Our 8 week old pup has already showed that he will be a very loyal companion. He is VERY intelligent. He can sit, come, play fetch, and when you say mmmm he comes in wanting a good tasting food! He put himself to bed in his crate the other night. I am so impressed with my Rottie, I have never seen such an intelligent dog! BTW I have been bit by more chihuahuas than Rotties! A Jack Russell Terrier mauled and killed a 6 week old baby a few months back. The ex French president was attacked by his own bi-polar POODLE. Do some research with your wife. Take a look at www.rottweiler.net; it is the ARFCOM of Rotts with all of the info you need about Rotties! The pics below were taken at 6 weeks, he is double that size now!
