okay... FIRST OF ALL, if you all would read completely, I was getting the dog OFF of the couch. You know, when you have to go to the bathroom... SECONDLY, she stays on the leash while in the house. THIRDLY... she is in the CRATE while not being tended to. Also, please tell me how I am trying to do too much with her. Are you telling me that I should allow a dog in MY house that I don't even know if you can touch her feet without her getting agitated???

Now that I got that out... Thank you for the comments, however she is NOT the first Rottweiler I have owned by far. The lady that I got her from said that she would not be surprised if she would bite because of the reactions that she gave them at their home. Especially towards her husband. She also cowars when you raise your hand too fast for her to completely watch what you are doing.

I understand that it can take months for a complete relationship to build. However, in the area we are from, the animals that are bred are NOT from high quality or high standards. Even our vet when I spoke to him last night seemed reluctant on some of her behavior at her age. That is one reason we are having the evaluation done now and not later. She is already UTD on all of her vaccinations...

Have you had your dogs from puppyhood or did you get them later in life, and what was their history?
