Quoted from Luckydogg420:Also the breed of the dog is less important then the temperament and training; any breed can be kind or crazy.
Yep...and unfortunately, people will often train/treat a dog based on their expectations of breed tendencies. You mentioned Rottweilers (but it goes for all the 'bully' breeds). People will get them to feed their ego and desire to portray a macho image. As a result, they won't discourage but rather encourage aggressive play as puppies. They think it's funny when the puppy acts in an aggressive manner and then can't figure out why they can't control them as adults. Some of the softest, sweetest dogs I've known were Rottweilers. It's really a shame that people have destroyed the reputation of some of these great dogs to the point where you cant even own them in some localities. Sorry to stray from the topic...
