Was under impression bandogs and fila brasilieros were banned over here, along with other 'dangerous' foreign breeds. Tosa Inu etc

I know they have nothing to do with eachother numnuts, he's X bred them a few years back and has kept those lines.

Inferiority complex refers to owning a ridiculously dangerous dog, owning a guard dog doesn't constitute that whatsoever.

have a couple 's back

Wikipedia reckons....

The breed is an ancient one, and its history stretches back to the Roman Empire. In those times, the legions travelled with their meat on the hoof and required the assistance of working dogs to herd the cattle. One route the army travelled was through Württemberg and on to the small market town of Rottweil.

This region eventually became an important cattle area, and the descendants of the Roman cattle dogs proved their worth in both droving and protecting the cattle from robbers and wild animals. It would be a brave villain who would try to remove the purse around the neck of a Rottweiler Metzgershund (Butcher's Dog of Rottweil).

However, by the end of the 19th Century, the breed had declined so much that in 1900 there was only one female to be found in the town of Rottweil. But the build up to the World War I saw a great demand for "police dogs," and that led to a revival in interest for the Rottweiler. Its enormous strength, its intelligence, and its ability to take orders made it a natural weapon of war.

From that time, it has become popular with dog owners, and in 1935 the breed was officially recognised by the American Kennel Club. In 1936, Rottweilers were exhibited in Britain at Crufts. In 1966, a separate register was opened for the breed.


John, just been reading about Victorian Bulldogs. Wow, sound like the perfect dog!

A brief history of the Rottie.


The Rottweiler is said to be descended from the drover dogs of ancient Rome. They accompanied the Roman Legions across the Alps herding their cattle and guarding their camps. One such camp, on the banks of the Neckar River in what is now southern Germany, was the origin of the town of Rottweil (named for the red tile roofs of the villas built by the Romans). Through the mid-1800's, the cattle trade flourished in Rottweil, as did the Rottweiler Metzgerhund (butcher dog), who drove the cattle to market and returned with the filled purses of their masters around their necks. As rail transportation became the primary means of bringing cattle to market, the dogs were used less frequently.

Legend has it that by 1905 there was but one Rottweiler left in the town of Rottweil. By the early 1900's though, the Rottweiler gained popularity as a police dog. Several Clubs were formed, and in 1921 united under the name of the Allgemeiner Deutscher Rottweiler Klub (ADRK). Then, in 1931, the first Rottweiler was admitted to the American Kennel Club (AKC) Stud Book.

Through the 1970's, the Rottweiler was a fairly uncommon dog in the United States, ranking in the middle of AKC registered breeds in terms of number of dogs registered. In the early 1980's the Rottweiler began a meteoric rise in popularity, and has been the second most popular AKC breed since 1992.

I hope this clears up a few misconceptions

i think this is a good post... im not a specialist on Rottys as my family mainly was/are involved in the staffies...

we've had a few of them with 1 finishing 1 place away from qualifying for Crufts...

we saw our rotty in the SUN and me dad wanted to have a look at him as our last staffy past away a yr b4...

we went to look at him and fell inlove with him...

he was badly mistreated and beaten by old owner and he still jumpy wen u kick off ur shoes and he's scared to push doors open...

we r gettin all that out of him now...

Phil i dont no if he has a good blood line or wot not but im sure he is not a cross... and he has alot of the characteristics u describe...

if i take him out in a busy place.. ie a market he is fine... he walks along mindin own business... if other dogs approach him growl at him etc... he just watches...

if kids run up to him and stroke him with out askin he is also fine...

wen ppl stop me n ask to stroke him he loves the attention... but wen walkin him and sum1 approaches either me or person walkin him in an unfriendly manor he does NOT like it and will put himself between u and the said person and growl...

Also as sed watchin that video i very much doubt them rotties were tryin to cause much harm to that person...

my rotty must b borderin 9 stone and i dread to think the damage he wud cause to sum1 if he really wanted to hurt them...

that bein said he has never tried to bite any1 and is so affectionate if a family member is upset for example he puts himself out to show affection...

but by no means is he soppy...


Also to PHIL again... i hear that a spot on the cheek and a black spot on each of the 2 middle toes *whcih Tye has* shows he is from a good back ground... is this true???

If he crossbred pittbulls with Mastino's he's not exactly breeding very good Mastino's at all but what is considered by some as a form of bandog...

I have a victorian buldog and he's such an idiot!
He's a cuddly, happy and always cheerfull retard but I love him sooooooo much!

Don't know about the Presa being illegal in Germany, I don't live there!
They're not in Holland though but be advised that's they are very dominant and animal-agressive dogs!

Seriously considering getting one now! best puppy I have ever seen and the dog sounds AMAZING!

Victorian Bulldogs are very loyal and absolutely reliable. Although its appearance can be somewhat intimidating, it is among the gentlest of dogs. Just the same it will see off any intruder. It is described as a very affectionate and dependable animal, gentle with children, but known for its courage and its excellent guarding abilities. Victorian Bulldogs are very much a peoples dog seeking out human attention and loving every bit it can get!! Human attention is required for the breed's happiness. They are nice to all people. This breed is good with family pets, but they can be scrappy with strange dogs.
