Pet Dogs

　　Among so many dog breeds, there is no shortage of dogs that look alike and have similar personalities. However, even if two dogs are similar, differences exist. For example, Rottweilers (detailed introduction) and Saint Bernards may be confused by those encountering these dogs for the first time, but understanding the differences between dogs and mastering the correct distinguishing methods, it's not difficult to tell Saint Bernard and Rottweiler apart.

　　Difference One Between Saint Bernard and Rottweiler:

　　The Saint Bernard is a famous giant dog; as an adult, its height can reach 61-71 cm, and its weight can reach 50-90 kg. The head is very large, and the skull is wide. The edges of the eye sockets are prominent, forming a right angle with the long axis of the head, and the occiput is quite developed. Above the eyes of the Saint Bernard, the skin on the forehead has some wrinkles, converging at a groove in the middle of the forehead, which becomes more pronounced when the dog is alert. Of course, if these wrinkles are very deep, that is considered a disqualification.

　　The Rottweiler is also a very famous pet dog. As an adult, its height can reach 58-69 cm, and its weight can reach 41-50 kg. The Rottweiler's head length is medium, with a wide skull. The nose and mouth area are short and thick. The ears are medium-sized with high roots. The cheekbones are rounded, and the stop is clear. The jaws are very strong. The eyes are medium-sized and copper-colored. The coat is relatively short, straight, with coarse top hair and fine undercoat.

　Difference Two Between Saint Bernard and Rottweiler:

　　Although the Saint Bernard is large, its temperament is very gentle. It easily gets close to family members, is loyal to its owner, and also likes to be with children. Of course, its patience with children is very strong. The Saint Bernard can adapt to very harsh environments and is easy to train, excelling in rescue work. Scientific breeding has enabled the Saint Bernard to become a very good pet dog.

　　The Rottweiler's temperament is alert and steady. Of course, it is absolutely loyal to its owner. In life, the Rottweiler is good at distinguishing right from wrong, is very kind to friends, but very fierce to invading enemies. When raising a Rottweiler, it should be strictly trained and disciplined from a young age. With scientific training, Rottweilers can become excellent guard dogs and pet dogs.
