[Homerhomer]

mine is a companion only and that's why he is a rescue. There will be a time in the future when I will have more time and knowledge to have a properly trained protection dog (rottweiler or not) and that dog will be purchased from a reputable breeder, until then rescue and companion dog is the way for me. I don't rely on my dog for protection or home security (he isn't even a good watch dog - doesn't bark much), but his look, occasional low growl and the folks in the neighbourhood knowing that we have a rottweiler does make a difference ( gee my place have never been broken into while our neighbours experienced it, coincidence or not - it makes me feel a bit safer).
