Your Rottweiler’s First Year

Around the time your rottweiler turns one year old, their growth will have begun to slow down and you will want to reevaluate what type of food you are feeding them. Around one year old may be a good time to change from puppy kibble to an adult dog food, to ensure that your dog remains at the correct rottweiler weight into adulthood. This is a good time to take your Rottweiler to the vet to discuss what is the proper adult dog food to begin feeding your dog.

There are a variety of beneficial adult dog foods and it is important that you pick the correct kibble for your dog, especially because as an adult their energy levels may decrease. In order not to overfeed your dog, try to stick with a feeding schedule for adult dogs. If you have been feeding three times a day, it is likely time to cut back to feeding only twice a day.

Another way to estimate their full size is to contact your Rottweiler’s breeder. Many breeders can give you a more precise estimate based on previous litters and your Rottie’s parents’ height and weight. A puppy will rarely grow larger than either parent, so this will give you a more accurate idea of their maximum size.

You can also take a look at your Rottweiler’s paws. Do their paws look too big when compared to their legs and the rest of their body? This is a classic puppy feature and sign that your Rottweiler is still growing and filling out!
