After selecting your Rottweiler pup you will be entering into a life long relationship with your new Rottweiler pup as well as the breeder you are buying them from. Typically a Rottweiler pup is a handful and will require your constant attention for at least their first two years, which is the most critical part during which the character and personality is being developed.

The Rottweiler is easy to train but they are a bit slow. This isn't because the Rottweiler isn't smart, rather they are slow because they want to see how much they can get away with before they need to obey. So once you establish that you are in charge you can train your Rottweiler pup easily as long as your treat them right. Don't try to bully your Rottweiler pup, as bad training can cause many behavioral problems. Bad training doesn't mean just abuse and harsh behavior but can also include soft and indecisive handling.
The first thing you should teach your Rottweiler pup is house training. You will initially notice that your Rottweiler pup needs to go to the bathroom every two to three hours. The best way to house train your Rottweiler pup is to crate them and as soon as you let them out lead them to the littering place. Just remember that training a Rottweiler pup requires a lot of patience and control. If you handle the training well then ideally by six months you will have a Rottweiler pup that is completely house trained.

When training your Rottweiler pup you need to be aware that they like to use their mouth a lot. Therefore they will bite and sometimes pretty hard on whatever they can get into their mouth including your feet, hands, furniture and anything that drops on the floor. It is extremely important to train your Rottweiler pup to stop these behaviors before they become a habit for the dog.
You will have to admonish yourRottweiler pup every time you find them biting things in order to train them out of this habit. If a pup bites you and doesn't react to your vocal correction then tapping with a rolled up newspaper is often sufficient enough to deter any further attempts at biting you or other people. Since it can be a bit hard to restrain a Rottweiler pup and you won't have complete control for at least two years you should not have any small children around at this time. The youngest child that should be near a Rottweiler pup is a seven or eight year old. Never give a child charge of the dog no matter what their age since the dog will sense the child's inability to control them and immediately act up. While a lot of work goes into raising your Rottweiler pup it is worth it for the lifetime companion that you get in return.
