It is preferably to buy a puppy in
the presence of a veterinarian or speacialist-cynologist that is
sound on determination of optimum characteristics concerning
physical state of dogs. It is necessary to pay attention to body
mass of Rottweiler puppy. Rottweiler at the age of 1 month old is
to weigh 3.4-4.5 kg (if there are 1-4 puppies in litter), 3-4 kg
(if there are 5-8 puppies born).
A specialist will help you to find out whether your Rottweiler
puppy suffers from inborn cardiac disease, whether its bite is
correct or not, if the puppy is overweight or not. (Rottweiler is
to be tallow, but in no case overfed). You should pay your
attention to housing conditions where Rottweiler puppies were
kept, whether their containment place was clean and orderly.
It is one more issue connected with choosing a season for buying
Rottweiler puppy. A puppy taken from a breeder in spring gets
possibility to go for a walk during the time when first green
grass comes into being and a lot of sunny days are available. Such
puppy provided that it has good regular nutrition is almost
guaranteed to be healthy and strong.
Rottweiler puppies taken in autumn time are usually known to be
tallow in already first weeks of their life because mother’s milk
is netter rich of nutritious matters during this period. Heredity
considerably has effect on working abilities of dogs, their
healthy status and compliance with breed standards. Dog breeder
should provide you with maximum information on Rottweiler puppy’s
parents.
Taking into account less favorable weather conditions in fall time
you will have to walk with your dog not for a long time and the
same time increasing their frequency: indeed, in any case no
matter if you purchase a puppy in spring or in autumn, it must be
broken to discipline; a habit of asking for emptying outside is to
be developed in Rottweiler puppy.
Many think that it is better to take Rottweiler puppy from a
Kennel as earlier as possible claiming that the younger dog the
less number of unwanted impressions it manages to get and
consequently the sooner it will be able to get accustomed to its
new owner.
However in that case it will be more difficult for a buyer to
avoid mistakes while choosing Rottweiler puppy and evaluating its
merits and demerits according to Rottweiler breed standard. The
matter is that characteristics of breed standard become more
evident when Rottweiler puppy reaches 3 months old at least.
