rotties for endurance??? We have a three year old German Rottie and my brother-in-law has a three year old American Rottie. We take our rotties horseback riding withus to the mountains, but now his rottie needs surgery on his back legs. this vet says that rotties are not build for endurance and long distant running or walking. I have had no problems with my boy but I am wondering if it is wise to leave him at home this year when we go to the mountains to go horseback riding. Has anyone els been told that rotties cannot handle long distances? and that they are not made for distance?
I would appreciate any feed back. |
