EARLY TO START is SAFE
• Start early and short. Puppies can be taught
simple commands starting at seven to
eight weeks of age.
•The key to training is to make each
session fun and short.
•A minute or two for each month of age up
to 6 months is a good ballpark figure.
• Trying to do more than that will not
benefit you or the dog because his
attention span can’t handle itarise dreams - CHANCE CHALLENGE CHANGE

•Reward your pet. Reward-based training is
one of the most positive and effective way to train your
Rottweiler puppy. Positive reinforcement, such as a
small piece of a tasty treat or lavish praise, should be
given immediately when the puppy obeys the command.
Keep a bag of small, tasty treats handy, such as tiny
cubes of cheese or very small pieces of cooked chicken,
to immediately reward your pup for any steps towards
learning the new command or cue.
• Once the puppy is consistently obeying your command,
the treats can be given intermittently then gradually
phased out, replaced with consistent praise.
• If you fail to reward immediately, the puppy will
become confused as to what you expect from her or
him.

• Learn the right kinds of
commands. The commands used
need to be short, one or at the
most two words. Keep your
voice friendly. Always praise
your puppy for any attempt in
the right direction, and
absolutely never yell or hit your
puppy. Your pup is obeying you
because he wants to please you
at this point, so remind him that
he is pleasing you with his
obedience.

Be consistent. Each of these principles
can be used for all the commands you use for
training. The key to the reward system is to reward
immediately, be consistent, and use simple
command words. The best time to conduct a
training session is when the puppy is relaxed and
alert. Never train when the puppy is sleepy, wound
up, or not feeling well. You want his mind
completely on the training session and his
attention on you

• Train for the right amount of time.
When you start training your dog, perform the
commands for 10 to 15 minutes at a time. During this
time period, spread out which commands you teach.
Try five to 15 repetitions of one command, then move on
to another one and do five to 15 repetitions of it. Once
the time is over, reward your pet and praise him.
You can do this up to three times a day with different
commands.You should also start with shorter time
periods he has to stay in each command as well.
When you are first teaching him to sit, for example, try
to make him sit for three seconds before rewarding him.
As he learns, move the time up, increasing until he can
stay for 30 seconds or longer

•Teach ‘No bite’.
The first training sessions should be to teach the
puppy not to bite.
You should have plenty of toys for your Rottweiler
puppy on hand at all times. Puppies go through a
teething stage and will bite your fingers or hand
during play.
If he does nip, say “No bite.” Play act that the
puppy has hurt you, with mock yelping or
squealing. After that, get up and leave.
This gives the dog the message that biting ends
the game. Avoid tapping a puppy on the nose as
this will over excite him and make him more
likely to bite. arise dreams - CHANCE CHALLENGE CHANGE

•Command ‘No chew’.
Chewing is a natural behavior for a puppy,
but it can be destructive on a household.
Diversion from an item you don’t want
chewed to another you would rather the
puppy chew on works well.
For example, if you find your puppy chewing
on a book, take the book away, put it out of
reach, and give them a toy to chew on.
As remove the book, say “no chew.” Your
puppy will eventually understand what he
can and cannot chew

• Tell him to be ‘Quiet’.
You may want your puppy to bark when visitors or
un-welcomed guests come to your home. However,
your puppy should learn the command “Quiet” for
those times when barking is a nuisance.
Keep your bag of small treats with you at all times
and when the puppy begins to bark, say “Quiet.”
When the puppy hushes immediately, give him the
reward so he associates the word “Quiet” with
stopping barking.
This may take some time, but he will eventually
understand that you expect him to hush when you
say quiet. Consistency and patience is the key in
making this work for the both of you

• Teach ‘No’ or ‘Stop’.
• It is important for your dog to learn the meaning of 'no'
or 'stop'. You can use either one, but the use of it must be
consistent.
• Rottweiler puppies are very playful and love mouth
items. If your puppy nibbles on you or things other than
toys or picks up items he shouldn’t, it is very, very
important for him to learn 'no!' or 'stop'.When teaching
this to your puppy, always be firm and consistent.
• Once you have voiced the command, immediately move
your dog away from whatever it is doing and once again
say 'stop'. Walk away from your puppy, but don't take
your eye off of him. If he goes back, repeat this process.
• This will be frustrating but you must do it. Otherwise,
your puppy will grow up not knowing right from wrong

• Command ‘Sit’.
• After learning the “no” or “stop” command, you will want
to teach your Rottweiler how to 'Sit'. Sitting makes
grooming, feeding, playing, and relaxing much easier. It is
also one of the easiest things to teach.
• Put a treat in your hand, letting the puppy see the treat.
Have your puppy stand in front of you and firmly say 'sit'.
Hold the treat on a level with the puppy's nose, then gently
arc the treat backwards over his head. As he follows the
treat with his nose to try and get it, his bottom will sink to
the ground. Immediately say "Sit" to label the behavior he
has just learned, and give the treat.
• It is good practice to have your puppy sit before placing his
food down for him to eat. This teaches him ‘table’
manners.While he is sitting, shower him with praise, such as
“good puppy” or “smart puppy”, while saying the word 'sit'
a few times. Repeat this process by moving away from your
puppy, turning to face him, making sure you have his full
attention, and tell him to ‘sit’. Praise him as you did before.
• Work on the sit command for five to seven days until he is
sitting promptly and consistently without the treat rewardarise dreams - CHANCE CHALLENGE CHANGE

•
Tell him to get ‘Down’.
Once he has learned to sit, you can teach him the ‘Down’
command. Put the puppy in the sit position while putting a
treat in your hand.
Make sure he knows you have the treat in your hand, and
put your hand near his nose. While moving your hand to the
floor say ‘down’or ‘lay down’.
The puppy will follow your hand to the floor by starting to
lay down. As soon as he does, give the treat and praise him.
He may make partial attempts at first, but he’ll get it.
Practice this new command for up to a week until he has
thoroughly learned it.
• The ‘Down’command can be useful if your puppy is a
jumper. Jumping on people can be a problem with puppies
as they try to get your attention. If your puppy is a jumper,
keep a leash on him to be able to correct him with ‘down’
as he starts to jump.
• Then give him the command to ‘sit’. Reward him when he
promptly responds with a tasty treat. He will soon learn
that jumping is not an acceptable behavior

• Teach ‘Stay’.
Rottweilers will always want to be in your company. He will
always want to be next to you, around you, or even on you. But
he will eventually get in your way.
Teaching your Rottweiler puppy to ‘stay’keeps him from getting
in the way of you, other people, and other dogs. Tell your dog to
'sit' first, as it is much easier to have him sit and allow him to
‘stay’.
Once he sits, praise him and put your hand in front of his face,
wide open like a stop sign. Firmly say 'stay', then back away
slowly.He will most likely run up it to you, but have him sit
again.
Then put your hand in front of him once again, say 'stay', back
away while all the while repeating ‘stay’. If he runs up to you,
you will have to do it again.
Once he stays, don't let him come to you. Instead, go to him,
praise him, and give him a treat.
• Repeat this process while going farther away from him than
you did the previous time until your puppy is consistently
staying

• Tell him to ‘Come’.
A very important command to learn is ‘come.’If your puppy is
ever running toward danger or in danger while away from you, a
puppy that has a solid understanding of the ‘come’command can
be quickly recalled to your side.
While your puppy is away from you, crouch down, slap your
thighs and say ‘come’in a friendly voice.
No doubt your puppy will run to you eager to play with you.
Reward him with a little treat and a bit of play. Work on this
command at various times for a few weeks.
If your puppy is far away from you, slap your thighs and say
'come' in an appealing, happy voice. Once he comes to you,
praise him and repeat the word 'come' a few times.
Then, throw a treat and or a toy far away from you and watch
him run after it. Once he gets there, tell your dog to 'come' again.
He might not do it at first, but you'll have to repeat it.
• If necessary, always have a treat or a toy that he loves more
than the one you threw. Wave it to him once he looks up and say
'come!'. Once he comes over, praise and repeat. A little work
and effort on your part will help your puppy retain this very
important command.

• Command ‘Paw’.
Teaching your dog to 'paw' is also an easy and useful
command. If you plan on clipping or filing your
Rottweiler's nails, this is necessary.
Have your puppy sit, then say 'paw' and reach down,
take his paw in your hand and then praise and pet him.
Repeat this process four times and then ask your dog to
'paw' without you lifting his paw.
If he is able to do it, praise him and give him a treat.Paw
is just as easy as ‘sit’and it should not take long to learn

• Learn about the breed.
Any person who owns a Rottweiler should have a good basic
knowledge about the breed.
• Not only will this help you train your Rottweiler properly,
but also keep it happy and healthy.Well-bred Rottweilers
are large and athletic.
• Male Rottweilers can grow up to 27 inches tall at the
shoulder and weigh 100 – 135 pounds. Female Rottweilers
are slightly smaller: up to 25 inches tall at the shoulder
and weighing 80 – 100 pounds.
• Rottweilers have a thick, glossy black coat with tan patches
on the body. You should brush the coat every few days to
keep it glossy and healthy.
• Rottweilers were originally bred to herd cattle, protect
their owners and guard resources. Because of this, they got
the name “butcher’s dog arise dreams - CHANCE CHALLENGE CHANGE

• Understand the temperament of Rottweilers.
Before you can train your Rottweiler, it’s important to learn about the temperament of the
breed. While they are loyal and loving, they can also be aggressive. Understanding your
Rottweiler will help you successfully train it.Rottweilers are very social animals and bond well
with their human family. They don’t like to be left alone or isolated.It’s not uncommon for them
to have separation anxiety
• Rottweilers need a lot of physical and mental stimulation. Long walks and obedience
training sessions will stimulate them and help prevent destructive behaviors such as digging,
chewing, and whining.
• Rottweilers are naturally territorial and will be very protective of you.
• Rottweilers may act dominantly towards other animals and people. Proper training, which
includes socialization, will help minimize this behavior.
• Rottweilers may exhibit aggressive behavior if they are trained that this is acceptable
behavior or if they are not trained properly.
• Rottweilers reach maturity very slowly, usually at the age of two. This can mean they will be
hyperactive and mischievous for a longer period than other dogs. They may also chew on
articles more frequently until they reach maturity

• Make a training plan.
Develop a training plan that you can follow consistently. Making a plan will
give you a chance to consider your dog’s personality and different factors
that may affect the process, such as if your Rottweiler is older or a
puppy.When developing your training plan, make sure to keep your
Rottweiler’s personality in mind. If there are certain areas of behavior with
which he has difficulty, focus on those.
• Since training is something you need to do regularly and over time, set
short, mid and long term goals. You can develop your plan by setting
daily, weekly, and monthly intentions or goals for you Rottweiler. By
taking the time, if necessary, to teach your dog lessons, you will ensure
that your dog is obedient and understands the lessons you’ve taught him.
• For example, you could have the goal one week of socializing your
Rottweiler. Make a plan over the course of the week to expose your dog to
other dogs and people. Remember to keep the activities short, like a walk
to the dog park, followed by a reward if your Rottweiler behaves and then
walk or run home.
• It’s important that you can commit ample time over a longer period to
training your Rottweiler. Dog training doesn’t happen overnight and
requires consistency.

• Identify and manage aggressive behavior.
Rottweilers can exhibit aggressive behavior at any age.
Rottweilers can get aggressive with people and other
dogs.
Identifying aggression and actively managing it with
training can help prevent your Rottweiler exhibiting this
behavior in the future.
A Rottweiler may not show aggression immediately
because he is an observer by nature.
The signs of aggression may be discreet and your
Rottweiler may even seem calm. Ignoring even subtle
signs of aggression, such as staring, can lead to later
problems.

• There are different signs of aggression in a Rottweiler including a low growling
noise, showing teeth, snapping the jaw, or staring.
• If you see your Rottweiler quietly staring at something, this is a sign of
aggression. Remove him from the situation to calm him down and avoid potential
problems.
• A Rottweiler will exhibit aggression for different reasons such as protecting his
territory, as well as being territorial with food or with an owner.
• A Rottweiler may show aggression towards other dogs, such as growling or
barking, because he thinks he is protecting you.
• Fear is a primary reason of aggression in Rottweilers. It can be a trained
behavior.For example, if a man with a beard verbally or physically punished your
Rottweiler, this may have traumatized him and he may exhibit aggressive behavior
when he sees any man with a beard.arise dreams - CHANCE CHALLENGE CHANGE

• Fear is a primary reason of aggression in Rottweilers. It can be a trained
behavior.For example, if a man with a beard verbally or physically punished
your Rottweiler, this may have traumatized him and he may exhibit
aggressive behavior when he sees any man with a beard.
• Manage aggression by quickly neutralizing the situation in a calm manner.[If
you get upset with your Rottweiler, you may compound his anxiety and
aggression.
• Manage your Rottweiler’s aggression by exposing him to triggers in a
controlled environment. This will help reduce his fear and help minimize
aggressive behaviors.For example, if your Rottweiler fears men with beards,
have him meet a friend or family member who loves dogs and can show your
Rottweiler that he doesn’t need to be scared of everyone with facial hair.
• If your Rottweiler if exhibiting aggression towards you, leave the situation
and don’t confront your dog.
• Never chastise a Rottweiler for growling. This will inhibit the behavior
(growling) but not remove his underlying feelings of tension. Thus the dog
may learn to bite without first warning of his intention because he feels
inhibited about growling.

• Socialize your Rottweiler. One important component
of training your Rottweiler is exposing him to other
dogs and people. This will keep him happy and
comfortable in any situation, and less likely to be
aggressive. It will also make him more receptive to
your training.Rottweilers may act dominantly towards
other animals and people and this behavior can be
prevented with proper socialization.[30]
• Help your Rottweiler be comfortable around both
dogs and people by exposing him to positive
situations with other dogs and individuals.
• Socialize your Rottweiler by taking him for walks, to
play the dog park, and to visit friends. It’s also
important to invite people to your house so that your
Rottweiler is comfortable having people on his
territory.[31]
• Keep every aspect of socialization calm and positive,
which will teach your Rottweiler to be calm and
confident

How to Train Your Dog to Attack on Command
1. Wear a protective glove that covers not just your hand, but also your entire arm. This
is a necessary safety precaution to prevent injury.
2. Sit your dog down. If you have not taught it simple commands like come, sit, stop, run,
and stand, then you must teach those first before teaching the “attack” command.
3. After sitting the dog down, tap it in the face with the glove on your arm. This is a way
of irritating the dog and trying its patience. Continue doing this until your dog attacks the
glove in anger. (Do you now understand why you must wear an arm-long glove?)
4. As soon as the dog attacks the glove, say the word “attack” loudly. You are doing this
because you want to make your dog understand what the word “attack” really means.
5. Praise the dog verbally or show it that you are pleased. Though it may not be
necessary, reward your dog by giving it some cookies or other treats. But if your dog is
often motivated by food and learns faster with treats, then you must offer it some.arise dreams - CHANCE CHALLENGE CHANGE

6. Repeat steps 3 – 5 until you are sure your dog has understood what the word
“attack” means. You will know this if your dog responds quickly to the “attack”
command by attacking your gloved arm immediately it hears the command.
7. Stand at a short distance away from your dog, and give the “attack” command.
See how it responds. If it doesn’t, then repeat steps 3 – 5 many times over. But if it
attacks, this shows it’s familiar with the command.
8. Take a break to reward the dog once again for understanding your command.
9. Repeat steps 7 and 8 for five to seven more times. This is to ensure that your
dog has really mastered the command.
10. Now, it’s time to show the dog how to attack an intruder (or else, every time
you say “attack”, it will go after your arm). Get a very big doll or make a
caricature human and place it at a distance. Then point towards the “fake” intruder
and shout “attack”. Although your dog may attempt coming towards you at first, it
will go in the pointed direction once it sees your finger.

How to identify PURE BREED
• Notice common personality traits. Rottweilers were initially bred for
work as protectors and guardians. This means they can be quite
dominant, and even aggressive on occasion. Rottweilers are intelligent
and active dogs who enjoy playing and completing tasks.[5]Rottweilers
can be very gentle and loving dogs, but they require a lot of training
and guidance from an early age.
• Without proper training as a puppy, Rottweilers can become
destructive pets who bark constantly and chew up your furniture or dig
in the yard.

• Look at the coloring. All Rottweilers have a black base coat
on their bodies with distinctive tan markings on their chests,
legs, and face. The tan can be a range of colors from a dark
mahogany to a red or rusty color, but the black will always
be black, never grey or merle, (a mix of colors.) The brown
is typically isolated to the dog's paws, the insides of its legs,
its chest, its throat and muzzle, and two distinct dots above
the eyes.[6]This pattern is so unique to the breed that it is
simply called "Rottweiler color," even when found on mixed
breed dogs.
• The only other breed to have this coloration naturally is the
Doberman Pinscher, which also originated in Germany, but
the Doberman Pinscher is very lean, long, and tall, as it
was bred for running more than for fighting and
intimidation.
