My sister and I were walking around Chinatown when we came across a ute that was parked there with an entire Rottweiler family in the back. We hesitated before approaching the ute, remembering a childhood encounter with a Rottweiler who barked angrily at us. But these Rottweilers looked happy and not at all aggressive. Their owners seemed to sense our hesitation so they smiled at us. We took that as our cue to come over.


So there was Mum and Dad Rottweiler and two of their pups in the back of the ute. The adults’ heads were the size of steering wheels. My sister and I were amazed at their size. We asked the owners what the story was and they explained to us the puppies were for sale. The owners let us pat the dogs but unfortunately we had to turn down the chance to buy the pups. My flatmates would have killed me. And anyway, I didn’t have the space in the flat which I shared with three other people for a grown Rotty to run in. It would have been cruel to put a dog in such an environment.

A couple of my friends and workmates have Rottweilers and although they said their dogs are aggressive towards strangers, it was because they were trained to be that way. My friends say that given the right training, Rottweilers can be as gentle as any other dog. The Rottweiler family we encountered in Chinatown certainly attests to that.
