I agree with Storm. Oscar sounds like a REALLY great dog but the encounters with other dogs are a crisis waiting to happen, very very dangerous. Pain, lawsuits, vet bills, serous injuries, etc. not to mention you want to keep a positive image of the Rottweiler breed to the world. If he is not neutered yet you should do so and this is the best time to start formal obedience training if not sooner, don't wait. His personality is still developing.

It's wonderful that he is good with guests in your home; you should encourage that, in my opinion! I would bet that he would be naturally protective of your house if an evil stranger tried to get in. But that would be something to address with your trainer.
