Bernese Mountain Dog

These are good working dogs and they are very devoted to their owners. If you can deal with the long hair on a Bernese Mountain Dog, they are easy going and family oriented. bernese-mountain-dog1.jpg

Rottweiler Puppies

Filed under: Dog Breeds, Dogs — shae @ 1:32 am

These dogs tend to be a bit over-protective so it’s important to start socializing them as a pup. From what I’ve seen, Rottweilers aren’t real excited about sharing their owners attention with other animals and people.

This is a picture of our Rottweiler, Lucy. She’s still just a puppy in this picture.

The average price for a Rottweiler Puppy is between $500 to $2000.00 … It usually depends on if the dog breeders are American Kennel Club {AKC} registered and if the puppy you’re buying has papers or not.

This dog below is Leon, a 6 year old Rottweiler and Italian Mastiff Mix. Also know to some as a hybrid dog. Looks like the perfect mix to me. I love this dog…

A Rottweiler is one of the larger dog breeds that comes from Germany. Originally they were raised to be herding dogs. A long time ago, {about 100 years} Rottweilers were used as working dogs, carrying wood and other goods to village markets. Later in history, during the first and second World Wars, they were put to service as guard dogs. To this day you will often see Rottweilers used as guard dogs for the police and the army.
