Rottweiler dogs

Rottweiler dogs by Clemens

Rottweilers are themselves a result of crossbreeding back in the days of the Roman Empire and were thought to have originated in Italy. Rottweilers are also often purposefully crossed with Doberman Pinschers, which are close to Rottweilers in temperament, looks and needs. The result is called a Rotterman (I guess that's better than Pinscherweiler). Rottweilers were bred to run about all day, protecting his master's farm and property. They were also bred to look very intimidating, but to be gentle with the people he is charged to protect. Rottweiler dogs go crazy when left all by themselves, such as when they are chained in someone´s back yard as a cheap security system. If they do not get proper exercise, they will find ways of burning up their considerable energy, including destroying your home. Rottweilers began to be used by the military in World War I and II as police and guard dogs. Unfortunately, many also were trained to be hostile and aggressive to dogs and people. Any large dog needs a healthy diet and regular exercise to help curb the energy.
