Re: Video: The True Character of the Rottweiler

That was a wonderful video, well done! I had a few tears as well!

In Scotland, there is no BSL against Rottweilers thankfully, but, even after recent events with a baby being killed by two guard dogs, who, let's face it, didn't have the best of lives living on a rooftop of a pub and having no human contact, I have to say that public perception of rotts hasn't really changed!

Most people I see in the street or at the park or at the vets still want to come over and give my gorgeous girl loads of love, because people ultimately realise over here that it is NOT the dog, but the owners who are responsible for moulding their dog into a loving, obedient, tolerant pet. I think it's all about educating the public on how to responsibly take care of their pets, and if they are not willing to spend the right amount of time in getting it right, it should be them who are penalised and not the poor dogs who don't know any different due to lack of training and time invested in their wellbeing! And this goes for all breeds.

Let's face it, we wouldn't let our children run riot and do as they please, so why do it with our family pets? It's all the same.
