When you think about a certain breed of dogs people tend to associate certain traits to it.
For exemple, rotties are good guard dogs, are very friendly with their owners,...
Setters are good hunting dogs, difficult to train and so on...
But even inside a specific breed there could be differences.
Two months ago I was talking with a friend who has a male German Shepherd. Last summer his parents traveled with the dog to a remote region of Greece where there were a lot of sheeps running around freely.
Although the dog never saw any sheeps previously in his life he immediately proceeded to group them as if he did this his entire life. Amazing how his instincts were so strong considering that nobody ever taught him how to do this.
Three weeks ago I told this same story to another owner of a female German Shepherd. And you know what his comments were? "Oh no, I can´t leave my dog alone with sheeps because she would kill them"
Same breed - German Shepherd - Two different behaviors. Interesting
With rottweilers you can also find differences. Some have a high pray instinct, others not. Some are friendly with people others not so much.
Keep this in mind and get to know your rottie as much as you can!!

Dog hot spots are very common in the English sheepdogs, Labrador Retrievers, Newfoundlands. It is actually a secondary bacterial infection which can be superficial or deep. Dog hot spots are fairly common and often occur over the rump area, although they can occur any where on the dog's body. It is a very painful disease. But it might be better if cured in time and correctly.
Smart breeds can be thought with different tricks such as searching for an object and concealed items.
