I hope you're prepared to spend money to build a very secure dog run to keep these dogs apart.
You have given your word to your friend
Maybe you should have thought about the welfare of your dog before agreeing to this. Another thought is perhaps your friend should not have asked you to take on this task. It appears you have neither the knowledge or experience to care for these dogs and keep them both safe.
You may owe your friend something, your young Rottweiler owes him nothing but it's your dog's life you are risking. It is your duty to protect the dog you chose to own.
As has been said, ask your friend to speak to the breeder of his dog. The breeder would be the best person to care for his dog.
