that was before u said you had a rotwiler in the past. so i had no clue what kind of dogs you liked. now i know you like BIG dogs and not as guard dogs. and read carefully i was "Guessing" because i didnt know what type of dogs you liked, i did not say "you must want a guard dog". the word i used makes a difference there.

lamonsas, you can't assume about people's past. it shouldnt matter that you didn't know I had a rott. It would have even been more acceptable to say, "is the reason you want a rottweiler becuase you think it would make a good guard dog?" I wouldn't have been extremely HAPPY with that, still becuase of the insinuation that that's all they're good for, but it would have been more acceptable.

cool.

cheers.

Goodness me!

All he said was: 'u see u want a rotw. so im guessing u want a guard dog lol, theres nothing a "BIG" dog has that a boston terrier doesnt.'

A lot of people do have rottweilers as guard dogs, and I'm guessing they may not be any more intelligent or friendly than Boston terriers. It depends on what you want ~ personal choice ~ but I don't see why that comment should be considered offensive or inappropriate.
Have I missed something?!

rotweilers can be guard dogs, but also compamions. it really depends on the owner. in my opinion, there is no such thing as a bad dog. but rotweilers are sometimes aggressive, so maybe lamonsas has had a negative expirience, and zookeeper had a positive.

i am not getting a dog because
1.there poo
2.they get petty big
3.my dad and mom like cats
