baby rottweiler

There is no such thing as a “baby Rottweiler.” Rottweilers, like all dogs, go through different stages of development, but they are not referred to as “babies.” When Rottweilers are first born, they are referred to as puppies, and they remain in the puppy stage until they reach around one year of age.

During the puppy stage, Rottweilers require lots of attention, training, and socialization to help them develop into well-behaved adult dogs. It’s important to establish a routine and provide plenty of opportunities for play and exercise during this time. Additionally, it’s important to provide a safe and secure environment for your Rottweiler puppy and to supervise them closely, especially when they are interacting with other dogs or people.

As your Rottweiler puppy grows and matures, they will go through different stages of development, such as adolescence and adulthood. It’s important to continue providing training, socialization, and exercise throughout these stages to help your Rottweiler develop into a happy, healthy, and well-behaved companion.

Character

Rotties have a natural instinct to protect their families and can be ferocious in their defense. It’s essential to channel their power and protectiveness by providing early socialization, firm, fair, consistent training and leadership, and a regular job to perform.

When training your Rottweiler, keep in mind that he thrives on mental stimulation. He likes to learn new things and is eager to please you. He might be willful at times, with a “Show me why I should do this” attitude. Be fair, consistent, and firm, and your Rottweiler will reward you with his quick ability to learn.

This protectiveness is where Rottweilers get their bad reputation of being overly aggressive.

Despite this innate need to protect, Rottweilers can be open to meeting new people and pups if properly socialized. If you want a little Rottweiler puppy, be sure to set up lots of playdates with both people and animals.

I’m sure they won’t mind the extra snuggles and “Awwwws!” that they get on said play dates.
