Average Price: $2,000*
Country of Origin: Germany
Rottweilers were originally bred as working dogs. They used to help with tasks like herding cattle and pulling carts for butchers. These dogs were known for being brave and attentive, and they were among the first dogs used by the police. They even have a role in the military, working alongside humans.
Sometimes people think negatively about Rottweilers, but they can actually be very friendly if they are introduced to different experiences when they’re young. Some Rottweilers are calm, while others are playful and silly. The male Rottweilers can weigh up to 130 pounds. This kind of dog is really protective of its family, whether they’re people or other dogs.
Even though Rottweilers are good dogs, some cities in the US have made rules to not allow them. People argue about whether these rules are fair, but it’s important to check if your city has these laws before getting a Rottweiler. If you’re caught having a Rottweiler where it’s not allowed, you might have to pay a big fine and lose your dog.
