Description: Rosie is a lovely, loving Rottweiler. We believe that she came from a backyard breeder as our vet thinks she has had several litters of puppies ~ how sad is that, to spend your early years taking care of puppies rather than being one??? This darling girl gave birth to her last litter of puppies at the Seminole County Animal Control. Mary Beth, the administrator, called Judy and asked her to take this family in. If not, they were going to be put to sleep. Well, I ask you, what would you have done? Right, the same thing Judy did! Of course she took them. And then our wonderful fosters Maggie and Michael stepped forward and offered to care for them. Very brave, especially since this was their first venture into fostering. But it has been a joy for them, and they have been a blessing for us. Rosie is a very sweet dog. She is very friendly, is gentle with children and playful with other dogs. She hates a leash (I wonder if she was mistreated with one) but other than that, she is very laid back. She curls up in a recliner to sleeps, shares a home with other dogs without a problem and has no food aggression issues. She is pretty as can be, with softer Rottie features, a loving disposition. She is really wonderful!
*** Are you not familiar with Rottweilers? According to www.dogbreedinfo.com, the Rottie is calm, trainable, courageous, and devoted to their owner and family. The Rottweiler is probably descended from the Italian Mastiff. During the Middle Ages, it was used as a herd dog. It was bred in the German town of Rottweil in Wurttemberg. Practically extinct in the 1800's, the breed population began a comeback in the early twentieth century due to the efforts of enthusiastic breeders centered in Stuttgart. Some of the Rottweilers talents include: tracking, herding, watchdogging, guarding, police work, carting, competitive obedience, and schutzhund. They have a reliable temperament. Protective, he will defend his family fiercely. They require owners who can handle their massive size. The Rottie is a natural guard dog with a mellow temperament. They are highly intelligent and have proven their worth beyond question in police, military, and customs work over many centuries. This breed needs a lot of companionship and socialization to be truly happy. They can be aggressive with other dogs and should be kept on leashes in public places. Friends and relatives of the family are normally enthusiastically welcomed. Strangers can get no further than the sidewalk. They have a life expectancy of 10-12 years.
