Just did a google and found this one. I'm sure there are more out there. The owners can call them up and check it out.
I've successfully integrated other rottweilers into our family again and again. It can be done. But as brunie'smom and jakesfostermom mentioned it does take extra time, money, and energy to keep up the exercise, training, health, nutrition, etc. Going from a single dog home to a two dog (or more) doesn't just double the trouble, it exponentially changes the whole shebang!
In my experience, instead of the well trained dog being a great role model for the newcomer, it usually turns out that it's the opposite. Just like with kids, they know when your energy and attention is stretched. The well mannered one slacks off and acts up and the poor mannered one eggs them on. It means you have to really amp up the training with them both to maintain your original level of good manners in them.
