Rottweilers and the Third Age
Despite their size, Rottweilers make wonderful pets, and though not necessarily ideal for those in their Third Age – broadly speaking, the Over 50s – given sufficient exercise they can and will happily adapt to life with the older owner.
So if you are in your Third Age and looking for a companion dog, don’t necessarily rule out the faithful Rottweiler!
I am 64 years old and I have a 2 year old Rottie cross bitch. If you are active they make great companions. Over the years I have owned several dogs including a Dobermann & Border Collie. The Rottie is by far the best natured one that I have had.
