Rottweiler

A breed of domestic dog

The Rottweiler ranks in the top ten of most popular dog breeds via the American Kennel Club (AKC). Affectionately known as Rotties, when properly raised these dogs often have a playful personality as well as a distinct level of confidence, intelligence, and loyalty to their humans. Considered a medium-large breed, the male Rottweiler stands about 24” to 27”, while the female stands 22” to 25”. They weigh about 80 to 135 pounds, but don’t be surprised if your Rottie thinks he’s a lap pup. Rottweilers are “leaners”—known for leaning into their humans as a way of showing affection.
