Barlo,
I talked to David last night about your post. As a matter of fact he was quite flattered that you posted his work. He said he wished he was more computer literate so he could come to rottweiler.net, but, I don't think his training (computer that is) has taken him to the appropriate level yet.

David agreed with what Laurlitt stated. He was referring to show lines and genetics. Some dogs have it, some don't. Each rottweiler is different. Some can handle it, some can't.
As far as *my* view goes, in general if you look at the # of dogs in any breed, relatively few can become a Sch. III dog. Rotts are no different. Genetics play a large roll. Some dogs can handle the stresses, some can't. Rotts are my breed of choice, and I believe they are very versatile as well. I find the article to be on the money.
