Strong, courageous and intelligent, Rottweilers are versatile and faithful dogs. They have outstanding characteristics and are devoted to their family. Butchers dogs were used to herd livestock in Germany. Do you know why the name "butcher" was used? The carts were full of "butchered" meat and other products to sell. So when the dogs pulled the carts they were called "butchers" dogs. Today, Rottweilers are found not only at home but also in law enforcement. They form a part of search and rescue teams and help the blind as guide dogs. This ability extends to work as police dogs and guard dogs. The AKC standard defines Rottweilers as "calm and confident." They also note a "self-assured aloofness that does not lend itself to immediate and indiscriminate friendships." This statement helps us to understand the level of socialization required for a Rottweiler. It also helps us to learn how much training is needed for a friendlier, more outgoing pet.
