Because of this, the breed is known to exhibit unusual strength for its size. Cattle herders then utilized the breed to guard their herd. The Rottweilers often had to fight off intruders who tried to steal from the herd. This made the breed protective and fearless in defending its territory. In the late 19th century, German merchants used Rottweilers to guard their money by tying their money pouches around the dogs’ necks.

Rottweilers respect owners whom they feel has an authority and keen leadership.
