The Rottweiler Poet Kept a Heavy Paw on His Favorite Book
A black velvet cap sits on the poet's head, and a white pleated ruff frames his strong, serious face. This black and tan Rottweiler has warm brown eyes, tan eyebrows, and a heavy paw resting on a worn leather book. A dark green cloak drapes over his shoulders, and two small candles burn in the shadows behind him. The mood is quiet and studious, as if the world has gone still while he thinks of the next line. The leather cover of the book is cracked and worn, which suggests he has read it many times over.
Rottweilers are loyal, confident dogs that love to work and bond closely with their families. They are strong and smart, so they need early training, good manners, and plenty of daily exercise. A well-socialized Rottweiler is often gentle and affectionate at home, and many enjoy cuddling despite their size. They are happiest with a job, such as learning tricks, carrying a toy, or joining family walks. Because they are heavy dogs, keeping them lean helps protect their joints, and your vet can advise on diet and exercise.
The poet may look stern, but his verses are surely full of belly rubs and long walks. We suspect the best line is the last one, about dinner. Even a tough guy has a soft side.
