The Rottweiler is one of the oldest dogs in existence. There are records that, at the time of the Roman Empire, the ancestors of this dog were used for protection and driving of livestock. Also, they were an excellent company for Roman soldiers fighting in other regions.

Centuries later, the predecessors of the Rottweiler, settled in the province of Rottweil (hence the current name), located in Germany. Where they mixed with other native German dogs, giving rise to the breed we know today.

Since those times, they have been performing various functions; such as herding cattle or protecting their master. There was even a time when it was very common for local butchers to use this breed to help them during the slaughter of livestock. The dog was in charge of controlling the most aggressive bulls and cows, facilitating the activity of the butchers. When butchers came to fairs to acquire new cattle, they took their dog to protect them from raiders; they even hung on the dog’s necklace, a small bag where they kept the coins.
