A good Rottie is very gentle, very trainable, and an excellent family companion dog, and they aren't a dog to go looking for trouble. They can be a very headstrong animal, and they are very smart, so they will keep you on your toes.
At our show this weekend, a Rottie took High in Trial with a score of 198 � out of 200 in an Open trial, and she would have gotten a perfect 200 except for a handler error that didn't allow the dog to finish after the broad jump. William Robb ====== Thanks. I will ask around about them and start paying attention to them. Marnie
