A Rottweiler Puppy Wrapped in an Orange Blanket Sits Beside the Pie
Bundled in a chunky orange knit blanket, a black and tan Rottweiler puppy rests his chin and one big paw on the fabric and looks off into the distance. His eyes are dark and soft, and the little tan marks above them give him a thoughtful look. Beside him on a wooden table sits a pumpkin pie topped with whipped cream, and a glass of water and a set of keys sit nearby. In the window behind, spider webs and tiny jack-o'-lanterns glow in the evening.
Rottweilers are strong, loyal dogs who can be quite gentle with the right training and socialization. Puppies often have large paws they will grow into, and they tend to be devoted to their families. Early, consistent and positive training matters a lot for large breeds, and a vet can help plan healthy growth, since large puppies should not grow too fast.
Fall baking brings smells that dogs love, but pie is not a dog treat. Sugar, spices, whipped cream and ingredients like raisins or chocolate can upset a dog's stomach or be harmful. Keep pies and desserts out of reach, and if your puppy eats something he should not, call your vet. A plain, cooked pumpkin treat made for dogs is a safer way to share the season.
We will call him Moose, and he looks very much at ease in his blanket. He keeps a polite distance from the pie, like a puppy with good manners. For now, he is just soaking in the cozy evening.
