Whatever your abilities and/or your dog's temperament, there is a whole FORUM full of people with a ton of experience with the breed and a few (dozen) years on you that are here to tell you that a Rottweiler needs formal training for AT LEAST the first THREE years of their life.

You can behave like typical teenagers and do nothing but argue (as you've done so far), or you can behave like the RESPONSIBLE Rottweiler owners you claim to be and GET INTO TRAINING CLASSES.

Of course, none of us can make you do anything, it's up to you whether you decide to grow up or not.
