Rottweiler Puppies Blog

Hi Rotti owners, I’m writing to tell all of you about some awesome products I’ve just gotten my paws on. The maker of the products is called Dean ‘N’ Tyler or “D&T” for short and they are known in the market for making some of the highest-quality, fashionable and durable accessories for dogs – particularly larger dogs.

As an owner of a large dog, I know it can be a little difficult to not only find stuff that fits and holds up to every day wear-and-tear, but also to find products that don’t make my dog look like a canine version of Paris Hilton.

So I had the chance to try out D&T’s leashes and collars. I must say the collars are absolutely stunning. They’re made from the highest-quality leather and hand-crafted materials and they come in so many different styles. I was able to find one orangish-tan leather that match my dogs coloring perfectly and looked stunning on her!

But then the real treat… the leather leash I received is my new favorite toy. I’m not even joking. You see, it has two clips, where a standard nylon leash only has one. Now I know I probably don’t have to tell you that those retractable wire leashes aren’t going to hold up to a pull from a strong dog – for a D&T leash this is no problem. You’re going to have this leash forever, but think about the possibilities for walking, training and everyday life with a duel-clasp leash!!

When I’m walking Marley with the leash “long,” and she starts to get a bit antsy or pull a little, I can double hook the leash to shorten it up a bit. When we’re “being casual” I can, if you can believe it, put the leash over my shoulder almost like a purse strap! I even had one trainer-friend inform me that the leash can cross over your chest safely and effectively. It’s great for training; it’s even great if you have to run into a store and attach the leash around a pole or tree and back to itself.

Your dog’s going to look great, you’re going to feel great knowing everything is durable and safe, and the best part is you’re going to find a new level of function that makes walking and training so much fun!!

I can’t rave enough. Anyway, I’ve convinced D&T to let you guys try it out too – all you have to do is give them code “heels09” from now until July and you’ll receive 10% off any purchase. (They also make really great Muzzles and Harnesses). Please let us know what you think of your new-found doggie duds!!

Dogs have become such an important part of our society, that the need for them to fit in well with other human beings and not pose a threat or a disturbance is critical to their long term acceptance by our neighbors and others around us. Not all people are dog lovers and to make sure that they’re not inconvenienced by our pets, training is essential.

Also, dog training is an integral part of a working dog’s life for them to be able to assist humans in activities like hunting and police work. Training dogs is a specialized skill since the key difficulty lies in how to communicate efficiently with them.

All dog training is a repetition of the basic principle of reward and punishment in various forms and combinations. Communication of these signals is the key to proper training. One very important thing to remember is consistency of signals. The reliability of the training depends on how well a dog is able to be sure of what your signals mean.

It must also be mentioned that different dog breeds take to training differently. Dogs like the iconic German Shepherd are very easily trained due to their high intelligence. Another important factor is the emotional state of the dog. A dog that is frightened, anxious, or insecure doesn’t train well and this reflects the importance of factors like proper socialization of puppies.

A lot of studies have shown that proper puppy socialization goes a long way towards ensuring a good temperament and receptivity towards training. Lots of handling, petting and generally being around humans in their everyday life goes a long way towards making a dog well behaved and easy to train.

Training Rottweiler puppies should not begin too early however, as there is evidence to show that before a certain age, the brains of puppies are not significantly developed enough to process complex learning.

Professional dog trainers are best when it comes to training your Rottweiler as they will ensure that the proper habits are set for life, including how to behave around strangers. For the safety of your Rottweiler  dog, it is your duty as an owner to ensure that he or she is well trained.

I just stumbled upon this beauty. I cannot remember the last time… if ever… I have seen such a great looking pup. You could easily mistaken him head with a bear. Could it be any “blockier”?

It is obvious these little fellas are from the best European bloodlines. They are already winners! Perfect Rottweiler puppies, both of them! I just love those faces!

Oh this is classic….it has to be shared..for anyone who has ever had a Rottweiler (or two..or three)

WE HAVE ROTTWEILERS NOW !

My feet are covered with sores and marks.
My nerves are shattered from sudden barks.
My wallet’s empty from paying the Vet,
and those Rotties are eating me into debt.

I sit down to rest in my favorite chair
And quick as a flash, the Rotties are there.
They’ve hauled off my shoes and chewed up my pipe,
But act so damned hurt, if I venture to gripe.

I rise in the morning, the new day to greet,
To find a Rottweiler standing firm on my feet.
I trip over another as I’m combing my hair,
While the puppy pulls hard at my underwear.

My fresh cup of coffee is now on the rug,
‘Cause the bitch gave my arm a sweet playful tug.
I’d pour me another, but sure as can be,
The Rotties would dump it all over me.

Please believe me people, it’s darn hard to write,
While my hand still hurts from that last loving bite.
The puppy is sneaking up in my lap,
While the one on my feet is down for a nap.

So to Hell with home life as it used to be,
And to Hell with quiet evenings with my family,
And to Hell with the money I’d spend anyhow!
Who needs them all……We’ve got Rottweilers now!!

I have come across many Rottweiler Blogs and websites that mention tail docking. Is it good? Is it not good? Should it be done? Should it be banned? It is a tough choice that many Rottweiler fan and owner asks…and ponders about.

Tail docking is a procedure that is done when the puppy is only days old. The proceedure is quite primitive to say the least, since the tail is twisted off, after a scissor-like contraption has been clamped onto the tail. Length varies according to breeds, with Rottweilers having a short docked tail, while bird dogs like Weimaraners for instance have longer ones. If the tail has been docked properly, the fur will grow on the end of it.

There are some reasons for docking. A breed standard often dictates it. Another reason could be the so called: “Happy Tail Phenomenon”. A lot of breeds, like the Labrador for example has such a powerful tail that comes from its passed function as a retreiver dog. It could swim along much like an otter. With such powerful strength, it has been known that these dogs can break their tails. And then what is left is a docking proceedure that has to be done at an adult stage – and it is much more painful when the dog is older.

It remains a controversial issue. A lot of breeders are against it, and sell purebred Rottweiler puppies with their tails intact.

This beautiful video has to be shared. It speaks for itself..in every way….

What is Schutzhund? Well, Schutzhund (German for “protection dog”) tests dogs of all breeds for the traits necessary for police-type work. Dogs that pass Schutzhund tests are considered suitable for a wide variety of tasks: police work, specific odor detection, search and rescue, and many others. The purpose of Schutzhund is to identify dogs that have or do not have the character traits required for these demanding jobs. Some of those traits are:

A strong desire to work
Courage
Intelligence
Trainability
Strong bond to the handler
Perseverance
Protective Instinct

Schutzhund training tests these traits. It also tests physical traits such as strength, endurance, agility, and scenting ability. The goal of Schutzhund is to illuminate the character of a dog through training. Breeders can use this insight to determine how and whether to use the dog in producing the next generation of working dogs. It has long been identified that the Rottweiler is an ideal breed that excells at Schutzhund. It is intelligent, was bred to work and with its trainability and strong instinct to protect it is an ideal candidate for Schutzhund.
