No, APBT ftw, if you have time to properly train/exercise one.

They aren't a dog you let grow up without training, like the little ankle-biting bastards people let get away with everything.

Used to breed rottweilers. AKC registered Rotts. Good dogs when raised by good people.... That one looks small... Angus Bluto and Jake were all over 130LBS.

The head (Crown) doesnt really start getting big untill they approach adulthood... But he does look little.

Mine were all very very smart, playfull... Good dogs.

I'm debating a rottie for a 2nd dog. Just gotta get my 9month old GSD Simba to get along with other dogs first Any advice on that? He does start lvl 1/2 protection training shortly.

Make sure you pay it tons of attention if you get it. The moment you dont have time for these dogs is when they go apeshit. My brother had one and stopped paying attention to it like he should. That dog ended up busting all 4 of his car tires before we finally gave it away to a rott rescue place. Other than that, they are very loyal dogs with tons of personality.

Agression wise they seem super chill just the size scares the **** out of people. If anything I would bring the dogs around each other first. Just like anything sometimes things dont match up well.

My experince my boy dog great dane/pitbull mix literally tried killing my little girl mutt dog when I first got her. The first encounter was him snagging her up from the ground when my back was turned and went right for the throat and me kicking the ---- out of him to let go. Now they are best friends that first meeting needs to be very slow and in a nuetral location like a park. That was my mistake bringing the two together for the first time like that.
