A black and tan Rottweiler lies in a thick layer of pink and red tulip petals on the floor, looking away. 3 / 31

The Rottweiler Looks Gentle Enough. The Tulips Might Disagree.

AI imagerottweilertulipscaught in the act

Pink and red petals cover the floor in a thick carpet, and a black and tan Rottweiler lies right in the center with his head turned away. His glossy coat contrasts with the soft flowers, and he seems intent on a spot beyond the frame. Green stems and leaves lie scattered under his paws. A lamp glows in the corner of the room, and the whole scene feels strangely peaceful for a bouquet disaster.

Rottweilers are strong, confident dogs, and with good training and socialization they are devoted, affectionate family members. They tend to be calm and watchful, though young ones can be rambunctious and need steady guidance. Many also love having a task, such as fetch, scent games or obedience practice. Flowers are an important thing to watch with any dog, because tulips and many other bulbs contain compounds that can upset a dog's stomach, and lilies and some others are dangerous to pets. Call your vet if a dog has eaten a plant.

A solid recall and leave it command can protect a dog from things on the floor, and putting bouquets out of reach helps most of all.

This big guy has decided that if he does not look at the mess, it may go away. The tulips, in all honesty, give him a very gentle look.
