How do i make sure I buy the right rottweiler? Dog Breed Discussions
As La Vita.Hip and elbow problems are very rare in good quality show dogs, whose owners can trace hip / elbow scoring through the lines of both dogs. Check for nice calm temperament also if you are not that experienced in the breed. You don't want a dog with a high drive (pinging) character as they are hard work. My avatar b*tch is, and she is 7 yrs old going on 6 months bless her, she'll never grow up. This is something you do have to watch with some lines. Badly bred rotties however most certainly do have problems. However once you get a good quality pup then the correct quality food and correct exercise is also very important. Remember the 5 minute rule. 5 mins per day per month of life for lead walking, and then allow free play also. A pup will not over exert during free play. I presume you are US, so can't help you with where to go. If UK then I know most of the good quality pups around. Also deal with hundreds of rescue dogs including pups. Just got two 8 week old pups out of a bad situation with their mother last weekend.
