Primarily one should provide
conditions for Rottweiler puppy to have quiet, deep sleep; the
room where the puppy will live must be light, dry and crowed with
furniture. It is better to organize a place for Rottweiler puppy
in the corner near window as here it will feel most comfortable.
It is most likely that at first even if housing conditions are
excellent, Rottweiler puppy will accustom itself to new
environment with difficulty, start whimpering nightly and one
should involve own household in guarding the baby during the hours
of darkness.
It is important to understand how one should hold Rottweiler puppy
if it is the necessity to take it in arms. In many cases the baby
is taken off the floor incorrectly and as a result the dog is
likely to get hurt or have a severe shock. In order to prevent
this accident one should treat it very carefully. It needs to take
the dog in arms, placing one hand under fore paws, and using the
other you should hold the dog behind the neck and head.
It is also another way of taking the puppy: to take up it under
its fore paws with one hand and hold it from below with the other
hand. From the first minutes of Rottweiler puppy’s existence at
home one should try to break it to the place designed for it
intentionally. For that it owner may lead puppy to its rug and
point to it by tapping on the rug several times while saying:
“Place, place!”
Gradually Rottweiler puppy will start to comprehend that just this
place where it will have to sleep now but not where it likes. Free
choice of place for sleeping is a privilege for adult Rottweilers
of course if their owners do not object. It is also reasonable to
reflect on creating of safe living conditions for Rottweiler
puppy. Any sharp, too loud sounds such as door bang, work of some
electric appliances, instruments, etc may frighten puppy.
Electric wires available in the buildings are not to be within the
grasp of a dog. One should keep order in the room as any small
objects, especially those with fine edges, scattered along the
floor and forgotten by owners may be of serious hazard to
Rottweiler puppy.
When playing the dog may ingest them or injure itself. It is not
recommended to leave muddy shoes: dogs almost always are attracted
to boots and slides but mud is true germination bed of diseases
that are dangerous not only for domestic pets but also for a
person. It is better to put footwear in such place that will out
of Rottweiler puppy’s reach.
Thus you will manage to insure a four-footed friend from possible
infection but footwear from impending death. You should not allow
your friends and acquaintances to feed Rottweiler puppy with all
possible dairies. The dog must get accustomed to getting food and
only out of its owner’s hands.
