The Breed
Our Rottweilers
Few breeds command respect the way a well-bred Rottweiler does. Beneath the powerful frame and confident gaze is a calm, deeply devoted companion that bonds intensely with its family. At Guard Dog Puppies we breed Rottweilers the way the breed founders intended: robust working dogs with clear heads, correct conformation and proven health behind every pedigree.
Our breeding stock is KUSA-registered, hip- and elbow-graded, and DNA-tested clear of JLPP before any mating is planned. Puppies are raised inside the farmhouse and around daily farm life, so they arrive in your home already accustomed to people, noise and handling.
At a Glance
Rottweiler Snapshot
Temperament
Calm, confident and courageous. A self-assured guardian that is aloof with strangers but affectionate and playful with its own people. Needs early socialisation and consistent, fair leadership.
Size & Presence
A powerful, compact working dog. Males typically stand 61-68 cm and weigh around 50 kg; females 56-63 cm and around 42 kg. Always black with clearly defined mahogany-to-tan markings.
Health & Testing
Responsible Rottweiler breeding demands hip and elbow grading, cardiac awareness and DNA testing for JLPP (Juvenile Laryngeal Paralysis & Polyneuropathy). We test every sire and dam – and show you the results.
