LONG HAIR ROTTWEILER

LONG HAIR ROTTWEILER

I was browsing through the net one day and a came across a Long Hair Rottweiler. He looks stunning.

Just wanted to know if this is common and do they come from the same litter or do they breed this type of coat.



Hi Lina
Actually I have never seen a Rottweiler with a coat like this! I have to say he is a beautiful dog, but the Rottie breed standard calls for a short, smooth coat and this has to be exceptionally rare.

He does look all Rottweiler in every other respect, but I tend to think there must be some mixed heritage in there somewhere (maybe a generation back even) to produce this type of coat.

I doubt very much if you'll ever see another exactly like this, or find long-haired puppies. It's simply not how the breed was intended to look. You may be able to get a similar 'look' from certain mix-breed pairings though!

Thanks for sharing this picture, it's one of a kind I think.

Max came to us from people in Maryland who claimed they did not have time for him; their loss! He has THE most wonderful dis position, I wish I could clone him. He is a gentle giant, very light on his feet but does not realize how big he is. He was originally found in D.C.

My first rotti female ended up being long hair. She was purchased from a reputable breeder. After doing research, it is a recessive gene.

She was the most loving and devoted dog i ever had. Unfortunately at age 8, i had to put her down because she had bone cancer.

RIP Bear....

by: Girish

Sue - you have one more photo to add in your RARE rottweilers section :D


few options which can result in this

1) a recessed gene - may be the other pups from same litter may not be same and with short coats

2) mix breeding - any another breed mix up along the blood lines. a tibetan mastiff combination with rotty :D
