You are a Rottweiler lover who really wants to help this breed
in whatever way is possible. You are a person who seeks to have
a dog companion for the kids to play with and the list can go
on and on. Whatever your motivation to have a Rottweiler, you
should know and weigh the pros and cons of bringing into your
home a full grown Rottweiler.
You should first look at the mistakes people make when keeping
a dog in a Rottweiler rescue center as well as the mistakes made
by those who obtain a dog from a Rottweiler adoption center.
People who opt for the Rottweiler adoption often do not realize
the space that this dog will take and often people bring this
huge dog home, to realize that their home is too small to house
such a large dog. Though the Rottweiler tends to be quiet and
adjusting even in the smallest of spaces, it just may not fit.
The Rottweiler adoption would also mean daily exercise and walking
which cannot be avoided and unless you are familiar with the breed
you might not be aware of the importance of having the Rottweiler
exercised daily
The adopted Rottweiler may develop acute medical problems, which
can cost you plenty in terms of medicines and medical attention
and the sad part is that in spite of it all it can still die on
you. There are plenty of dogs in these Rottweiler rescue and adoption
centers who need special care, which you might or might not be
able to give in a sustained manner. Do not choose a dog impulsively
and have it neglected at your home.
Sometime the past abuse and neglect of the Rottweiler may flare
up to what seems to be unprovoked aggressive behavior towards
you, your family members or the cat or other animals in the household.
There are times when the dog simply cannot adjust to new surroundings
and new master and these Rottweiler rescue and adoption centers
will need to work with you and see that any adaptation can be
made and if not, taken back
The Rottweiler you are rescuing may need a special diet and although
most male Rottweilers are not too finicky of an eater there are
some who have been taught special diets and you might have major
trouble in feeding them. There are times when the dog pines for
their owner and there are many cases reported from the Rottweiler
rescue and adoption center where the dog simply subsists, not
taking interest in anything. The Rottweiler is generally a one-man
dog and often you can find them literally pining for their owners,
making it difficult to bond with them and care for them
Grooming your new Rottweiler might be a problem area for some
time, until you earn his total confidence and he trusts you completely.
However, this will have to be pursued at a steady pace with a
lot of patience so the transition can be completed in the shortest
period of time. Additionally, the Rottweiler may get too attached
with you and prevent other members of the family or friends to
touch or be around you.
There are times when Rottweilers become too possessive about
their owners, possibly due to traumas that they might have experienced
before. In this case, a good behavioral professional would be
of help.
If you think that in spite of the warnings you can still be happy
with a Rottweiler from a Rottweiler rescue home, then by all means
go ahead. Now at least you know something about the dangers of
adopting a grown up Rottweiler in your home, you will more or
less be prepared and know what
to expect from a Rottweiler rescue dog.
