Some will say yes, but most will say no.
These two types are more aggressive than most.
I will get messages from readers disagreeing with my response.
Do a lot of research before you get a dog.
Depending on you & your child's age, where you live, city or country, house or apartment. How much time you have for exercising your dog. Just being in a kennel or being tied outside, does not count as exercise.
Getting a dog is not a decision to be taken lightly. They give us undying love & ask for nothing in return. We owe it to them to treat them well.
Do your research.
Visit the SPA or SPCA ( depending on where you live ).
The dogs there are in desperate need of homes.
Their lives depend on it.
It depends. If its an adult dog that was not trained to be well with children, it might want to attack them. but if its a puppy, you can train it to love the child and not be mean. most people think that pit bulls and rottweilers are all mean. this is not true because its the owner that might be mean and train to be that way. all depends on the training of the dog
They can be, if taken to puppy classes at an early age and with on going socialisation and training. However if you have small children I wouldn't recommend this breed because of their size, they can be very boisterous and stubborn. Also because of the increase of attacks highlighted by the press a lot of parents will not let their children play at your home because you have a rottweiler, resulting in your kids missing out on their friends.
Both of these breeds can make brilliant family pets, with correct socialisation, training, and responsibility on the owners part.
no they can be boisterous
The American Rottweiler Club has some good pictures on the related link listed below:
I think that Ivy is a good rottweiler puppy name. Only for a girl though.
Yes, in most cases if a rottweiler is raised in a good and loving environment they will be good dogs.
give them good food

There are lots of good Rottweiler breeders in Germany. A kennel club accredited breeder is good reliable source.
Rocky - Buster - Diesel
A good breeding stock:)
I have a Rottweiler of one years old and also have to small children, he is very good with them and is very playful and loving. Also on the other hand he can be quite protective over them and guarding.Answer 2:No. It is dangerous because the rottweiler is a fighting breed dog that might attack kids. Another opinion:Blame the owners, not the breed for making rottweilers seem like such dangerous dogs that are only bred to fight, which I assume is what the original answerer was referring to. As a matter of fact, rottweilers are great with kids if socialized properly and taught not to bite or nip as a puppy. They can also be great if taught manners to respect kids' spaces, and if they know that the human is the dominant animal, not the dog or dogs.
You could take it to the nearest dog re-homing centre or to a rottweiler rescue centre.
well its easy a rottweiler
there is a huge diffarence between the German rottweiler and the English rottweiler and that is because, THE GERMAN ROTTWEILER is shorter but all muscles and they have a giant massave head, they are more trainable, loyal, smart, good around children, and protective. i would recomend getting a German rottweiler if you were thinking about it. they get 100 to 170 lbs. they are 26 to 30 inches for males and females are 23 to 28 inches. there is just so much more about the German rottweiler that is 100 times better then the American rottweiler.
