ROTTWEILER
BREED REPRESENTATIVES
Rottweilers have served mankind since Roman times as cattle drover, draft dog, police dog,
and today, a loyal and protective family dog. The Rottie is a robust, short coated, 26"
heavyweight companion and a strong deterrent to intruders.

Certified Rottweiler Representative
The
Rottweiler is a versatile dog, with physical and mental attributes
making them an all around working dog . If you have a job, they can
handle it! The breed has its roots in Germany. Every Rottweiler in the
United States today can trace its lineage to Europe. Breeders in this
country have and continue to build upon import stock to maintain the
heritage of a strong body and mind for the Rottweiler of today. There is
only one Rottweiler... no matter their country of origin today! While we
face many challenges for the breed, including anti-canine legislation,
ALL owners who love this breed can and do pull together to ensure a
bright future for this magnificent animal that we all love.

Cathy Thompson,
Certified Rottweiler Representative
I think of the Rottweiler
as an all-purpose farm dog. He herds, he guards, he can even
pull a milk cart! We should never forget his versatility and
although milk carts are scarce today, Rotties excel in weight
pulling, obedience and tracking. A Rottweiler should be strong
of mind and body. His gait must be effortless and free
flowing. He welcomes any form of training and indeed, requires
mental and physical exercise. Rottweilers are athletic and
gifted with great endurance although considerate owners will
grant him a reprieve from mid-day summer sun due to his glossy
black coat. The Rottweiler herded, pulled his weight, and
protected the Roman army. He stands confident and capable of
serving his owner in just about any capacity today.

Dana Agresta,
Certified
Rottweiler Representative
There is no other breed for me than a Rottweiler, they can do it all!
Of all the working breeds recognized by AKC, Rottweilers are the most versatile.
The perfect farm, working stock, obedience, and family companion dog.
Rottweilers are biddable, stable in mind and body having sound temperaments.
Originally from Italy, they were brought to Germany by the Romans, where they
became popular in the town of Rottweil. Known as the "butcher’s dog",
they herded and drove cattle, carted the meat, and were the family
protector. Today’s Rottweilers are versatile, smart, and are able to receive
high working scores in obedience, tracking, agility, and herding. They also make
great therapy and service dogs. Once you own a Rotty, you'll never go BACK!!!

Agresta Rottweilers - My love for Rottweilers began with my first rescue abandoned in my barn in 1985, which then started a few more rescues after that... After retiring from showing
my horses, it was an easy transition to the dog world as I was already competing
in obedience with my Rottweilers. I am dedicated to promoting the Rottweiler breed for all
its worthiness. Member of ARC/MRC/CRC/GRC/SRC, AKC Legislative
