| It seems your selection for training is rather from one extreme to another. Are you sure those are your only two choices? If that is indeed the case, I'd opt for the clicker training at least to get started.
No walking of a Rottweiler by a 6 YO child. He might want to drive the car also, but you as parent can say "no" and I suggest you do so as far as walking the dog is concerned. A Rottweiler is not a toy. It is simply not safe for such a young and small child regardless of the level of training the dog has. The child could get hurt and the dog could get away especially since your yard is not fenced. So, let your boy do something else with the dog. He can hold a cookie and tell her to sit and down and they will both enjoy that. Do it in the house where there are few distractions and temptations. Best for both of them. |
