Before you adopt a Rottweiler
Rottweilers are powerful, loyal and highly intelligent dogs that thrive with consistent training, daily exercise and clear leadership. Make sure you can commit to structured walks, mental stimulation and ongoing socialization for the whole of the dog's life.
Ask the shelter about the dog's history, health records and behavior around children and other pets. A good rescue will help you match with a dog that fits your home, experience level and daily routine.
