決める前に知っておくこと

Important behavioral traits that potential owners should understand:

CriticalSame-Sex Aggression

Onset typically occurs between 18-36 months (social maturity). Previously friendly dogs may suddenly develop intolerance for housemates of the same gender. This is often genetic and not trainable out - it must be managed.

CriticalProtective Instincts Without Training

Rottweilers do not need to be taught to guard; they need to be taught when NOT to. Poorly socialized Rottweilers struggle to distinguish between friendly guests and threats, leading to stranger-directed aggression.

CriticalInsurance & Housing Restrictions

One of the most commonly banned breeds in rental agreements and insurance policies. Major insurers often deny coverage, forcing owners to seek expensive specialty insurance.

ChallengeHigh Financial Commitment

Giant breed tax on all medications, high food costs ($80-150/month), insurance premiums 2-3x average. Emergency fund of $3,000-5,000 needed for potential CCL surgery.
