squo;t believe these amazing Rotties were facing such a fate; they are two of the most people-friendly pups you will ever meet. They greet everyone as if they are their favorite person on Earth, offering all the wiggles and "nub wags" they can muster. Matilda absolutely loves people and wants nothing more than a family of her own to shower with affection. While her body shows the trauma of her past- you can tell she had been bred multiole times- her spirit remains unbroken. She has officially received the "all clear" from our veterinarian, who confirmed that although she is blind in her left eye from a past injury, it has fully healed and is not causing her any pain.This small physical limitation does not take away from her beautiful soul or her ability to navigate the world with joy. Her capacity to forgive is a true testament to her amazing character. Matilda and Cupcake are attached to one another, and we would love to see them adopted together. As the saying goes, “Two is always better than one!” You truly couldn’t ask for a better duo. If you are interested in adopting Matilda (or both of them), they would love to meet you! Our Adoption Process If you are interested in adopting one of our fun-loving, "not-so-rotten" Rotties, you will be asked to fill out a questionnaire that allows us to get to know you better. This ensures the dog you are interested in is a good fit for your family and lifestyle. You can access the questionnaire by visiting our website at .rottenrottie, clicking on the "Forms" tab, and submitting the form online. After reviewing your answers, if we feel the dog you are interested in is not a match for your family, we may recommend a different Rottweiler companion. Once we determine which dog is best for you, we will schedule a meeting at their current home, where they feel most comfortable and act naturally. We require a home check to ensure each dog is going to a safe environment. To finalize the process, an adoption contract must be signed. We also require a rehoming fee, which is typically $500 for most adults and $350 for seniors (6 years and older) or Rottweiler mixes of any age (excluding puppies). Fees for puppies fluctuate depending on the investment required for the litter and whether they are purebred or a mix. These funds are necessary for our organization to continue rehoming Rottweilers in need. All of our dogs are spayed/neutered, fully vaccinated, microchipped, and have tested negative for heartworms. Each dog comes with a collar and a leash. We also address any injuries or illnesses they had upon arrival or developed in foster care; any such conditions will be fully disclosed to the adopter prior to the adoption. Please Note: In almost all cases, we do not adopt to out-of-state applicants. On rare occasions, if we feel it is a perfect match for both you and the dog, we may make an exception for our neighbors in Las Vegas. If you live in Las Vegas and would like us to consider your application, please fill out the questionnaire.

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
