ROTTWEILER

Intelligent, patient and the most versatile of all breeds, Rottweilers are one of the most ancient herding breeds that can adapt to a variety of conditions. Tracing their origins to the Roman Empire, their standard black-and-rust-coloured coats make them distinctive, as do their unique characteristics such as being exceedingly protective of their owners and having excellent guarding instincts. A pure-bred Rottweiler puppy can cost you anything up to `5,00,000.
