What should I do if my Rottweiler is growling?
Do NOT… pressure your dog when it’s in a stressed state. If your dog is growling at you when you approach it, don’t think it’s a good idea to get closer. When the dog is growling, it is warning you not to come closer or to stop what you’re doing. So respect your dog’s wishes. Do NOT… shout, yell or hit your Rottweiler.
