Welcome to our Rottie world. The picture
above is the view from our home which is located in the
foothills of the Southern Appalachian Mountains. My husband
Jim and I retired here from South Florida in 2002 to enjoy
the "good life". It is very beautiful and peaceful
here. The weather is mild and we have a beautiful
change of seasons. Our dogs love the weather too and
get very excited the few days it snows.
Rottweilers have been my favorite breed since
I bought my first one in 1976. Although they can
sometimes be a challenge, they are the most loyal, stable
and loving breed you can own. They are extremely
smart, and for that reason, sometimes we find it hard to
stay one step ahead of them. They really have a way of
stealing your heart forever.
Rottweilers are a working breed and like to
have an assignment. We are constantly training them
and giving them that assignment! Our dogs participate
in conformation and once they achieve their championship,
move onto obedience and other AKC venues. Two of our
dogs are also registered therapy dogs. They visit
schools and nursing homes bringing their loving and willing
spirit to the young and old. It is a very rewarding
experience for me as an owner to see our dogs put a smile on
someone’s face.
Although our breeding program is limited, Jim
and I are working hard to do our part to improve the breed
with careful selection of the sires and dams. These
parents will have all their health clearances, and the
breedings we decide to undertake will be carefully and
methodically planned out.
Jim and I are active members in the
