Description
Dog Breed: Rottweiler (medium coat). Ted is a big-hearted Rottie with an even bigger personality. When he first arrived at the shelter, he was extremely fearful and unsure of people, but with time and patience, heâs blossomed into the sweetest boy. Ted truly believes heâs a lap dog and loves to soak up affection from those he trusts. His favorite things in the world are soft stuffed toys, which he proudly carries around, and tasty treats, which make him highly motivated to learn. Ted would do best in a structured home familiar with his breed and their needs, as heâs still working on his training. Heâs been great with other dogs, happily playing with those who want to engage and peacefully coexisting with those who prefer their space. Because he can be nervous with new individuals, Ted is part of our âBuild the Bondâ program and is currently available by appointment only with specific staff members. If youâre interested in meeting Ted and starting the process toward adoption, please call the shelter to schedule an appointment.

Overview:
The Rottweiler is a powerful and intelligent breed, originating in Germany where they were primarily used to drive cattle and guard property. Physically, they are robust dogs, instantly recognizable by their medium-large size, strong build, and striking black coat with distinct tan markings, particularly on the muzzle, chest, and legs. Their temperament, when properly socialized and trained, is one of unwavering loyalty and confidence; they are known for being calm and courageous, making them excellent guardians. While generally good with children within their own family, their protective instincts mean they require supervision with strangers. Due to their size and need for regular exercise and mental stimulation, Rottweilers are generally not ideal for apartment living and thrive in homes with secure yards. Health-wise, they can be predisposed to conditions such as hip and elbow dysplasia, as well as certain heart conditions, necessitating responsible breeding practices and regular veterinary check-ups.
