Rottweiler, a working dog breed believed to be descended from drover dogs (cattle-driving dogs) left by the Roman legions at Rottweil, Germany. It has also worked as a guard dog, drovers dog, draft dog, rescue dog, and police dog.
Rottweilers have a black coat that is short and coarse, with brown markings on the head, chest, and legs. The Rottweilers history as a protector and herder has developed the breeds tendency for wariness and protectiveness when meeting strangers. Rottweilers are recognized for their confidence and intellect, but they also need consistent training to develop social skills.
Potentially harmful behavior in Rottweilers, as in any breed, is frequently the consequence of irresponsible ownership, abuse, neglect, or a lack of socialization and training. Nonetheless, the Rottweilers ferocity should not be underestimated.
