Do rottweilers bred as pets come from a different breeding line to the working rottweiler?

There should not be a difference. Each breed has a written standard prepared by the American Kennel Club as to how it should look. An ethical breeder will breed to the standard, not over or under it. A well bred Rottie should look like the standard for the breed. There should not be different looks for working or pets. They are a working breed. All should be able to be both, pets and working. The only breed I can think off that there is a difference is the Labradors. If you look at the Labs bred to be Field Trialers or for hunting, they are much leggier and have larger heads but the ones shown in AKC conformation shows are much shorter on the leg and have smaller heads. This should not be but breeders will be breeders. There is only one standard per breed as written up by the AKC.
