We have 2 rottweilers-one is 13 months and the other is 11 months old(female and male, respectively). When younger, they both attended puppy kindergarten and basic obedience classes, however now that they are more mature when going for walks they have become more aggressive toward other dogs we see.


I plan to continue taking them to further obedience classes, however am hesitant to have them meeting other dogs as I'm not sure how they will interact and would feel terrible if they attacked another dog. Would you recommend introducing them to other dogs individually or at all?? Any help would be appreciated.

The training will help,but if you are going to introduce them to other dogs do it individually.Together they are a pack and will work together.I allow mine to play with strange dogs when they are puppies,once they are over a year I stop.They see other dogs and sometimes pass or bump them but they are not allowed to play.I have 6 dogs at home so they don't need to play with other dogs.I would rather be safe then sorry.I don't think they would fight,but why take the chance.


While at training they will see other dogs do not let them act aggressively towards other dogs.If you don't already use one maybe a training collar would help(pinch collar).


Good luck with your babies.
