I'll say it again -- this dog should be evaluated IN PERSON by a trainer that has experience with Rottweilers. It sounds like all the advice has been given via the internet or phone conversations...and (please don't take this wrong Julie), but as a trainer, I would NEVER recommend a dog be put to sleep without seeing the actions firsthand...sometimes an owner (and especially a new owner) doesn't see the whole picture - there might be something simple that you are missing that an experienced trainer can help you with. OR, if it truly is a genetic problem and the dog just isn't wired right, then at least you know you've done your best and you are honestly helping the dog by allowing them to cross the Bridge....and hopefully, you'll have your trainer to support through through that tough time as well.
