Walk A Rottweiler Puppy

Regular walks are essential when raising a Rottweiler.


A Rottweiler is a powerful breed of dog with a strong personality. Rottweilers are known for their obedience, intense loyalty an affinity to show a great deal of affection to children as well as adults. It is important to closely monitor Rottweilers as puppies, however, to allow their positive traits to develop. This includes walking them properly and on a regular basis.


Instructions


1. Find a good collar for your Rottweiler puppy. Determine the proper diameter for a collar by gently wrapping a string around his neck and measuring the width. Make sure the collar is not so heavy that it drags his neck down. Make sure the collar is snug but comfortable and not too tight.


2. Attach a strong leash to the collar, making sure it contains plenty of slack. Lead the puppy on the walk with the leash, encouraging him to follow. Walk him around the neighborhood or at a dog park. It is fine to walk briskly or run with him if he shows the desire.


3. Walk your Rottweiler puppy at least 30 minutes a day. Even though Rottweilers are relatively calm dogs compared with some sporting breeds and terriers, they still need regular exercise throughout their life. Puppies in particular have high energy levels and need more frequent exercise including regular walks.


4. Watch for signs of stress or exhaustion from the Rottweiler puppy as you walk him. If he pants excessively or drools, stop walking and rest until he recovers.
