In the past week or two, my almost 6yr old female Rottie has been itching like crazy! Nothing dramatic has changed...so I am stumped as to why she is itching so much! I\'ve refused to give her Benadryl but succumbed to it earlier this evening (just one pill) to see if it would make a difference. So far, no luck, but I think I will continue to give her 2 pills (through out the day) tomorrow to see if it helps. Has anyone had this problem? Do you have any advice?

I have a 1 yr old MALE German Rottweiller, His parents were AKC registered but his mom was on a limited registration so he isnt registered. He has a big wide blocky head and is a gentle loving giant. He likes kids just no other male dogs. He is not nuetured. He loves water. He rescued my son in pool! He won't stay in fence and neighbors worry about him jumping, he does jump but only to play and for love never in aggression. He is a GOOD DOG! He needs a home in the country where he can run and play. I have some photos of him. His name is KOBE (after KOBE BRYANT the basketball star)Kobe comes with his BLOCKYDOGS custom made collar (with his name on it) and several other rottweiller signs, stocking, training book, and more of his things.Please contact me if interested.

How old is too old to breed a male rottweiler

I assume because of the Rottweiler's stature, they are proned to arthrits. I have a nine year old female weighing in at 110 - 115lbs. As she has gotten older she has trouble getting up and walking up stairs. She can stand up and do the stairs, it just takes her a while, she'll stop and take a break and then continue on. My guess is it's arthritis. I was wondering if there is any kind of vitamin, prescription med or acupuncture that any other Rottie owner has experience with. Thanks in advance.

I am proud owner of a male rotti that is 18 weeks old. he is a great dog, very smart and listens well, except with wanting to bite, not hard but play biting. I am just afraid because sometimes he gets to rough. He thinks my girlfriend is his chew toy, which is not good. I have many chew toys for him and he plays with them, but likes to put her arm in his mouth just as much. He listens to me when I tell him to stop. (most of the time unless really wound up, then it takes a little bit to calm him down) But he will not listen to my girlfriend when she tells him to stop. Is it because of my deeper voice he listens to me? Any help on this matter, (before it becomes a bad habit) would be greatly appreciated. thanks.

I have a 14 week old male rottie pup (Capone)I need some solid advice on training he is doing well with basic comands I am useing the clicker method he is crate trained and doing well with potty training. But i am having problems with him being nippy and over dominant with kids he is good with me and all adults for that matter we started socializing him vert very early as soon as we got him he goes everywere with us and meets everyone but i am now getting a little scarred when he is around kids he is almost 40 pounds and he is only 3 1/2 months old i dont think he realizes his strength i need helpl getting this corrected and soon i do not beleive in hitting my animals or any kind of cruel treatment, Thank you in advance for your advice. Kristie and Capone

I am fairly new to rottweilers, but I am looking at adopting one and had a question about her. The people that I am looking to adopt from have a 7 week old female rottweiler. I heard from an unconfirmed source that if you take a young rottwieler away from their mother too early that they may have serious problems or could possibly death. Any truth to this? Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hello. I have a 2.5 year old neutered Rottweiler and I recently moved in to a new house with a roommate who has a neutered Weimeraner. our dogs have had a problem getting along, and I'm looking into options to keep them both safe. Obviously, my concern is for the other dog, as my Rott is much bigger and stronger. I have decided to either install a long chain in the yard, or possibly add on to the existing fence in the backyard and section off part of it for my dog. The only problem is, I don't own the house so I'm not sure if the fence idea will fly. The chain option would be best, but I've heard that chained dogs can become aggressive over time. Any thoughts or suggestions would be appreciated!

I just got a 7 week old female rotty,Ive never seen a dog act the way she dose.Ive had her for a few days and she is just now getting use to me.She barks and growls at things that shes not sure of,when people come over,she about has a heart attack.She seems to be unsure of every thing.Have any of you seen this kind of thing before and how did the dog turn out?

Help! My husband and I rescued a female rottie from being destroyed and she is making it very difficult for my husband to come into the house or upstairs (basically wherever I am). She is NOT showing teeth but is growling enough that he is concerned with her biting him. I am open for any kind of suggestions.

I have been reading about distal sensorimotor polyneuropathy. My dog is in a lot of pain... He goes to the vet this evening but would like to go with knowledge in hand about what could possibly be wrong... He has been limping on front right foot for a few days and now finds it difficult to move at all... He has no wounds or sores on his leg.He has a hot spot on his nub (tail) that may or may not have anything to do with this but it seems quite raw... Anyone know about this disease mentioned above. I have read write ups about it but it is not written in"English" lol... Too technical for me... Please help ... My Big boy is 5 yrs old 125lbs and has shown some history of hip problems from time to time.... --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I just got a Rottweiler Mix puppy last week. He is 12-13 wks. old. Father is Rottweiler Mother is Amer.Staffordshire Terrier. Does anyone have this type of mix? Thanks, LadyLugerToo

I'm a relatively new dog owner - a wonderful rotty - but I've got a question. He will only 'do his business' in our backyard. At first, I thought 'cool - I don't have to pick up after him in public'. But last month, my family went on a 2 day vacation (no dogs allowed..), and placed Harley in a kennel (very clean, well maintained). When I brought him home, it literally took several minutes and attempts to empty his bladder! Even on short road trips of a few hours, I'll give him several opportunities to relieve himself, but he will not. Is this a 'vet' issue? Thanks!

Hi all, I have a beloved 12 year old Rottweiler named Rocco. He has recently begun to struggle with arthritis in his back legs and he already was suffering from the beginnings of congestive heart failure. Recently however, a friend of mine turned me on to a new nutritional supplement for dogs called Canine Health Formula. It is a specific blend of fatty acids known for its antiinflammatory and heart protecting effects. Since I have started Guinness on this daily supplement he has been like a new dog. I can't remember the last time he was able to walk without a limp, and he never seems to labor anymore. I asked my vet about it and he wholeheartedly supported my decision to start him on this. Nonetheless, I just wanted to pass this info along to my fellow dog owners. I definitely think it is worth a try. Also...my friend actually told me that the reason he was using it in the first place is the effect it has on stopping itching from allergies. I don't know much about this because, luckily, my dog never suffered from them. I ordered mine off of the website. I will provide the link for any that think that it may be of help to their dog. http://www.Caninehealthformula.com Jeff

I took in a female Rottweiler from a so called friend that was having problems. The female had been bred to a male I have known for some quite some time. The female gave birth to 10 beautiful pups,5 males and 5 females. The problem I have is both parents are registered but the so called friend cannot be found,therefore I now have no papers for Mom. Can anyone help me with any other registry other than AKC that are respected for registering this breed. Thanks in advance.

Dear friend I have a genuine doubt about rabies. I would like to know whether the dog, which has vaccinated antirabby, is safe from rabies. Some of the doctors told me we have to vaccinate again if the dog is bitten by a rabid animal. If it is so what is the use of antirabby vaccine. Is the rabies is originated from the body of dogs itself, without contact of rabid animal, bats, or raccoons. Some people say if vaccinated a dog antirabby, it will not show the symptoms of rabies though its affected rabies. Is it true? Please reply

We are trying to get our Rottweiler pregnant. This is our second time trying in the last 6 months. The first time she had a false pregnancy, but never tied with the male. We are using the same male this time. He is a proven dog. My problem is this: Every time he mounts her, he is not entering her, but going off to the side, or below her rectum. Her vagina seems more towards her tummy than towards her rectum and when he mounts her, he is mounting too high. So is missing her completly. I need some ideas as to how to proceed on this. If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know. I've never had this kind of problem with my others.

I am doing a project for school on dog intelligence, and thought it would be a good idea to include results form a test of my own, and to see if my results of different breed intelligence match what the experts say. It is a 70 question multiple choice test, and I was wondering if anyone would not mind taking a few minuets and taking the test about their dogs. Just emal me at spoonz28@hotmail.com and I would be glad to give you the test. Thanks, Danielle
