Well, when I researched rotties before I bought I read that that is where they get their "stare" and intimidation skills from, a good dog would find the dominant bull, gain its dominance, then work the cattle. I also read in the same article that is why rotties are more reluctant to bite than many other guard dogs, usually just bullying there way through. Sounded good to me, anyone else hear that one? My breeder said to me when I asked, that she has a herding rottie and doesnt suggest it to someone who has kids and other dogs, hers always wants to bump and herd the rest of the family.
