Understanding Rottweilers
Rottweilers are intelligent, confident, and loyal dogs with specific needs. Originally bred as drover dogs and guardians, they possess natural protective instincts that need proper channelling. In Albany, with our unique lifestyle, Rottweiler training requires specialised knowledge.
With 30+ years experience with working breeds, I understand the Rottweiler's unique combination of intelligence, strength, and sensitivity.
