The Rottweiler
is considered to be one of the oldest dog breeds. Its origin goes back to Roman
times. These dogs were kept as herder or driving dogs. They marched over the Alps
with the Roma n legions, protecting the humans and driving their cattle. In the
region of Rottweil, these dogs met and mixed with the native dogs in a natural crossing.
The main task of the Rottweiler now became the driving and guarding of the herds
of cattle and the defence of their masters and their property. This breed acquired
its name from the old free city of Rottweil and was known as the "Rottweil butcher`s
dog".
