Loba Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 I am currently sharing my home with a 10 month old Rotty and she is smart! She picks up new things incredibly easily and already she will shut both doors on command. .bring me my phone and wallet...locate my daughter anywhere in the house or yard on command as well as all the *basic* obedience including off-leash distance commands such as Sit, Down and a standing wait. But.... If she doesnt want to do something she plainly refuses. I am using food treats and balls etc to teach her which she loves but once she decides it's over..it is OVER! Is this passive refusal a Rottweiler thing? Have never encountered it with my GSDS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dogsfevr Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 I would suggest it’s a over doing the young mind thing,your dog is a pup ,they get bored quickly and doing the same thing may seem great for you is not always the same for a bright dog . Not all dogs or breeds fits the same box for training ,I never compare my dogs or breed ,each one is an individual that flourishes or shuts down differently 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juice Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Rotties were bred to herd so different to a GSD . Go into the breed section and ask there . Some great Rottie breeders on here who work their dogs too . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
