Hi all..this forum and site is great!! I have a 1year 9month old rotti..american i believe(is there a way to tell).He is around 95 lbs....the problem is his brother(the only other male in the litter ) is around 155lbs and is just massive. Is my guy the runt of the litter? Or jus a regular rotti as opposed to his brother who is oversized. my boy's brother has had so many offers to take him ,breed him buy him etc...thats how big he is. They are both amazing looking, probably(tryin not to be bias) the best looking rotti's I have ever seen..lol My guy is also very scared of vacuums, loud noises and any sudden noise makes him jump. I have had him from the breeder since he was 8 weeks old , visited him b4 he was born and right after he was born. Therefore I know that he has never been abused or hurt in anyway...I wonder what can cause this sort of timidness. He is not afraid if I put my fist up to him at all or fake to hit him ..no flinching even. Its just loud noises or sudden unexpected noises make him jump.
He also LEAPS around the fields liek a deer, its absolutly hilarious..just thought I would add that in. He is playful ..great and friendly to absolutly every living thing, has never chewed anything he wasnt supposed to...in fact he is the perfect temperment and behaviour.
The hair on his back has NEVER gone up..EVER. I dont think there is a mean bone in his body. He licks everyone and everything like they are lollipops and sometimes wont stop..lol he is just recently started to get protective, more like informative..lol. See, he never growls..he has only once for 1 second when he thought someone was outside. normally in fact always , he just barks.
Rottis are a wait and see type of breed...so I have a feeling that has something to do with his behaviour..can anyone help??
thanks
