Hurley is a 145-lb American Rottweiler, aged 3. He's a good-natured fellow, plays well with others, is quite comical and LOVES his people. When he visits the dog park (where he's known as 'The Ambassador of Dog Town') he always goes to the people first, greeting each and every one, schmoozing for love. Then he greets his fellow canines. He's quite the character and we love him to death. Highly misunderstood breed -- we trained him early and well, and that's the key.
Hi. I love Rotties, and you
Hi.
I love Rotties, and you are so right when you say that this breed is greatly misunderstood. However, I would say that it isn't just up to the dog's guardians to make sure that their puppy is well socialised and trained. It is also up to the breeders to make sure that they only breed from well balanced good genetic lines to ensure temperamental and physical well being in all their puppies.
Hurley is gorgeous by the way. Elaine x
