Is this all a misunderstanding? Has the Rottweiler been misunderstood by you for so many years? The Rottweiler is not actually one of the more popular dogs nowadays, but it is liked because it is quite loyal to its owner. However, the Rottweiler belongs to a strong-willed breed, and its temper is relatively aggressive. Despite its aggressive temper, it is quite clingy to its owner. There are many sayings about Rottweilers on the market now; I will also explain whether some of these sayings have any basis.

1: Docked tails are American style, undocked tails are German style
      Explanation: Except for the United States AKC All-Breed Club requires docking for Rottweilers, and a very few other national clubs also dock tails. However, the United States USRC Rottweiler Club does not dock tails. China's CKURK Rottweiler Club also does not dock tails and does not allow docking. In short, you cannot determine the style by tail docking; this is one-sided. Is this all a misunderstanding? Has the Rottweiler been misunderstood by you for so many years?
2: Good dogs do not necessarily win awards, but award-winning dogs must be good dogs
      Explanation: This sentence is somewhat philosophical yet contradictory. The correct version should be: Award-winning dogs are not necessarily good dogs, but good dogs will definitely win awards. For example: in many small competitions, the number of dogs in a group is very few, sometimes even just one. As long as the dog is qualified to enter, the award is guaranteed.

3: German Rottweilers are better, Eastern European Rottweilers are dumb
      Explanation: Each country's Rottweiler club has different breeding standard systems. German Rottweilers do put a lot of effort into training systems and have more complete support. It is hard to say German Rottweilers have better temperaments for sure; I have seen many German Rottweilers that are overly nervous, sensitive, and unstable, as well as many that are as gentle as lambs, friendly, and naive.

4: The more exaggerated the Rottweiler’s head, the better
      Explanation: Generally, everyone likes to see an exaggerated head because it is very striking. But anything beyond a certain degree is not good. Excessively exaggerated features lose the original characteristic appearance of the Rottweiler, becoming like a new breed, distorted and far from the Rottweiler standard. How can it still be considered good?

5: Rottweiler oral pigmentation degradation is caused by bloodline relations
      Explanation: Any bloodline of Rottweilers may experience oral pigmentation degradation. It cannot be 100% attributed to bloodline. It is actually also related to stress, living environment, diet, and the depth of pigmentation itself. Is this all a misunderstanding? Has the Rottweiler been misunderstood by you for so many years?
6: Rottweilers with underbite are useless dogs
      Explanation: A Rottweiler with an underbite does not affect its working performance. Although the bite force may slightly decrease, you do not need it to kill. If it is purely a family companion or for play/training, there is absolutely no need to be afraid of an underbite. Is this all a misunderstanding? Has the Rottweiler been misunderstood by you for so many years?

7: Rottweilers do not need microchips or pedigree certificates

      Explanation: Others cannot even get papers for a hybrid Harbaugh dog; you have a purebred dog and can get it, so why not? The Rottweiler club provides a microchip number belonging to one dog only. The pedigree certificate clearly records the dog's name, birth date, and three generations of ancestry. This is equivalent to a human ID card. The fee is only 400 yuan or so.
8: Rottweilers with poorly closed toes lack calcium
      Explanation: The thickness of the paw pads directly affects the foot shape, which is innate and directly related to genetics. It is also related to long-term contact with smooth floors, being caged, being overweight, and lack of exercise.

 9: Rottweilers have body odor and drool a lot
      Explanation: Rottweilers do not have much body odor at all. They also do not drool much; they are definitely better than Cane Corsos and Bulldogs. Is this all a misunderstanding? Has the Rottweiler been misunderstood by you for so many years?
10: The shorter the Rottweiler’s body, the better
      Explanation: The Rottweiler’s height to body length standard ratio is 9:10 , the body is slightly elongated, not square. In fact, it is preferable to have 9 : 11 rather than 9 : 9 . Compact does not mean a short body but describes good connection between body parts, solid and powerful.

Is this all a misunderstanding? Has the Rottweiler been misunderstood by you for so many years? Have you heard many of these sayings in the market? Have you also misunderstood the Rottweiler for so many years? Friends, next time when you hear such untrue sayings about this dog, you can reasonably and effectively refute them.
