| I Could not agree more. Our first Rott/x was an adorable freebe in front of Safeway 6weeks old. That was more than 14 yrs ago. Since then we've learned alot. A WHOLE LOT. He was fearfull, agressive with anyone outside the family and oddly enough the best family dog we ever had. (please don't assume that's an endorsement, it's only a bizzare coincidence) but he was so lacking in many of the things that make for a well rounded, socially acceptable animal. I caution anyone I talk to about the importance of leaving pups with their mothers and litter mates for a minium of 7 weeks. It seems like more and more average pet enthusiasts are begining to understand this. That to me seems important because these are the people who, without understanding it, are the ones rewarding these ignorant, or greedy or poor and careless breeders |
