I have 2 Rottweiler pups that will be 1 year old in a couple of weeks. Has anyone used this fence with Rotties?

Great dog. The collars are not breed specific. I have a 150# great dane and 30# bull dog mix on mine. If corrects both of them when required.

It was an inferior product. Especially for pups. Distance calculated was possible. Sent it back got a different brsnd

We just installed this for our 6 month old lab. It worked wonderfully. She had it figured out in about 15 minutes. Just be sure to install away from large metal objects, like refrigerators to ensure the signal is uniform. We love the fact that its portable and highly recommend it.

not me. smaller dogs. All I can say is I set it for medium to train my Irish setter mix (60 lbs). The first time it shocked her she literally did a back flip and started yowling. Needless to say, I turned it all the way down before trying it again. So turned up it should at least get their attention?Good luck.

No, but training them together is not advised. Be sure to keep one in the kennel and out of hearing distance while training the other. Otherwise, they'll hear the click and be waiting for the treat that will never come... It's a great training aid and I've had awesome results training my six year old chihuahua multiple tricks. Good luck!

Definitely. I foster for a Rottweiler rescue organization and take care of all ages, from 6 weeks old to adults. All of them are on Taste of the Wild (TOW puppy food for the youngsters). To transition to any new food, always mix the foods to avoid digestive upsets: (Example) 25% new food for 2 days; then 50% new food for 2 days; then 75% new food for 2 days. This is just a guide; if signs of soft stools or diarrhea, stay with the low % of the new food for additional days.

I had a 20 pound Blue Heeler puppy in there... Depending on how much running around your Rottweiler will do, and how you attempt to configure the crate, it may be slightly too small for him. As pictured, it should be enough space for him to turn around and lay out fully, but if you want this as an area he can run in, probably too small.

The bar is very sturd and can easily resist a Rottweiler. If you are worried about your dog pulling, it's not the bar you'd have to worry about but you on the bike. A naughty rotty could easily drag you and your bike sideways toward whatever draws it's fancy. If, however, your pup is well behaved, then you won't be disappointed.

It has worked wonders for our Rottweiler and is very sturdy, so I think this sould be the perfect ramp for you. Our Rottie is very skittish but gets up and down this ramp as if nothing:)

I have a Doberman who expects to ride shotgun wither or not my wife is in that seat. It slowed her down a bit but she worked it out and essentualy wrecked the fence. I think it could work if they (or your) came up with a better idea of how to secure the four corners. I would buy this one. There must be a better one out there.

Yes, I would think so. We have a chow retriever mix and a rottie. The rottie tears things up fast but this has lasted so far. We haven't had it to long tjough.

We have the 'Petsafe" brand fence and collars. I would ask the manufacturer.

Yes. My dog has been using this for months. The original broke because other dogs she plays with chewed it. I actually prefer this one over the original that comes with the invisible fence

I have two 16 month old black labs (85 and 90 lbs). They have done fine in it. It does seem to feel more flimsy than our smaller ones but I think that is just because of the height of the kennel. The latch has to be secured with a wire though on the one we use all the time..they paw at it and have been known to get out. My metal tray (which is why we bought it) is about 2 inches shorter than what I think it should be. Had to anchor it so that the dogs could not paw at rug that was beneath it.

Absolutely. I use mine in just that way and it is perfect. That said, if you have very large dogs, say, rotties, no gate may do the job. This gate is sturdy and beautiful as well.

Good evening, I have a Golden retriever and they work well with her. I have my motion sensors approximately 6 1/2 feet on each corner. I believe they are good for up to 80lbs. I've had my sensors for 6 months and they work as well as my ADT installed sensors. For added security buy the door sensors, if the motions happen to go off and the door sensors don't then it's the dogs. Just for the peace of mind. I hope this answers your question.

Hi Tara. My shep/rottie mix did the same thing. However, when I place her ball between the flags, she will not approach. I only use my electronic fence to protect my garden and saplings, which my puppy loves to uproot and chew on. However, the electronic fence keeps her from doing this. Do you have the e-fence turned up to its highest power?

Carla, I would suggest you ask that question of the seller. Personally I don't see why not but just to make sure before you order it you might want to ask the seller. Be sure that your dog isn't too heavy. We found that the chair was not sturdy enough for our Rottweiler.

I bought the line for my 2 very small dogs to keep them in the yard as it is not fenced yet. It does sag but I haven't tried to tighten anything as it doesn't matter in my instance. Sorry I could not be of more help

Our dogs are 8 years old so this might be a little tough on puppy teeth. We have one at 20 pounds and one at 80 pounds and this works for both of them.
