I wanted the same thing in a dog that you do. I had 5 children at home when I got my dog, so getting along with children was a must. I now have 7 grandchildren and my dog gets along fine with all of them. I have pictures of my grandchildren crawling over my dog. I also have another dog now and the 2 of them get along just fine.

I wanted a certain breed of dog, but the type of dog I wanted has gotten a bad rap from the media (imagine that). So I did a lot of research and ending up getting the dog I wanted in the first place. My dog is smart, friendly to my friends and family, and is my constant companion and protector. She has had occasion to protect me and did it well. I waited to tell you that my dog is a rottweiler because I wanted you to read the rest of this post first. They are not the devils that the media makes them out to be.
