Breed Information

Overview

The Rotterman is not a purebred dog. It is a cross between a Rottweiler and Doberman Pinscher. The best way to determine the temperament of a mixed dog breed is to look up all breeds in the cross and understand that you can get any combination of the characteristics found in either breed. This designer breed is recognized by ACHC (American Canine Hybrid Club).

The Rotterman is a cross between a Rottweiler and a Doberman Pinscher. These large, powerful dogs tend to be intelligent, energetic, and protective. They are known for being loyal dogs that are affectionate with their families.

Although the Rotterman is not currently recognized by the American Kennel Club, they are recognized by other notable dog organizations. The American Canine Hybrid Club, International Designer Canine Registry, and more all recognize the Rotterman.

Temperament

Rottermans tend to have a gentle and sweet disposition. They thrive on attention and affection from their families and love being the center of attention at home. A Rotterman will also likely follow you around the house from time to time just to stay close. They tend to get along well with children and other pets that are part of the family unit. They tend to be initially wary of strangers and will assess the situation, but will warm up once introduced. Rottermans do not tend to be aggressive dogs unless they are responding to a threat or have not been socialized properly. As with any dog breed, and particularly with protective breeds, proper socialization and training are important to raising a confident, well-balanced dog.
