Wrong! I hate info like this that can be misleading or misunderstood..
Genetics can be a big part such as high prey drive vs non prey.  Genetics can’t be out trained. You can be consistent and do all the training in the world. Once that prey driven dog sees prey genetics come back. Unless you’re relying on ecollar at that point that’s not trained that’s scared to feel pain. Certain triggers/ behavior can only be managed.
I’d hate to see so many get misleading info And blame training only. Understand the type of dog you own. Watch Behavior it’s displaying. Narrow where the behavior stems from. Understand genetics vs poor training are two different issues. Train accordingly to that.
Two completely different dogs. Same breed.
One pulls on the leash, ignores commands, gets distracted by every squirrel and stranger. The other walks calm, listens, and actually enjoys being out with you.
The difference isn't genetics. It's training.
Rottweilers are smart, loyal, and powerful but that power needs direction. Without it, you get a dog that's hard to control. With it, you get a dog you can trust anywhere.
Here's the truth: training isn't a one-time class. It's daily consistency. Five minutes of focused commands every day beats one hour once a week.
Start early. Be consistent. Reward the behavior you want and ignore the behavior you don't.
A trained Rottweiler isn't born that way; it's built, one walk, one command, one repetition at a time.
Which one does your dog look like right now?
