The Rottweiler is one of the oldest surviving breeds.

Rottweilers were bred to be working dogs, so they are strong, reliable, and versatile.

They are usually black with brown markings. Their coat can sometimes have a gray, tan, or black undercoat.

One of the strongest traits of Rottweilers is their loyalty. They are known for being extremely devoted to their families.

Rottweilers are intelligent, but they need plenty of training and socialisation to become well-behaved dogs.
