Congratulations on your new puppy!  The parents of your puppy are both excellent working and/or show Rottweilers.  This litter was bred with the intent to better the Rottweiler breed.  Should you, the buyer, at any time prior to taking possession of your puppy should change your mind it shall be understood that any deposit paid shall remain on record to be used towards a purchase at any later date.  Though non-refundable, any deposit shall remain valid indefinitely.  As breeders, it is our hope that you will take exceptional care of this puppy throughout its entire life.  This means providing socialization, medical, proper nutritional, physical needs as necessary, treating your dog as part of your family, and giving it lots of love for the remainder of its life.   If for any reason you are unable to keep this puppy please contact us first.  We will always take one of our offspring back. Remember that environment and how it raised has tremendous impact on how the dog will turn out.  It is important that all Rottweilers get obedience training at an early age.
