Rottweiler
Breed Standard General
Appearance
The ideal Rottweiler is a medium large, robust and powerful dog, black
with clearly defined rust markings. His compact and substantial build
denotes great strength, agility and endurance. Dogs are characteristically
more massive throughout with larger frame and heavier bone than bitches.
Bitches are distinctly feminine, but without weakness of substance or
structure.
Size,
Proportion, Substance
Dogs--24
inches to 27 inches. Bitches--22 inches to 25 inches, with preferred
size being mid-range of each sex. Correct proportion is of primary importance,
as long as size is within the standard's range The length of body, from
prosternum to the rearmost projection of the rump, is slightly longer
than the height of the dog at the withers, the most desirable proportion
of the height to length being 9 to 10. The Rottweiler is neither coarse
nor shelly. Depth of chest is approximately fifty percent (50%) of the
height of the dog. His bone and muscle mass must be sufficient to balance
his frame, giving a compact and very powerful appearance.
Serious Faults--Lack of proportion, undersized, oversized, reversal
of sex characteristics (bitchy dogs, doggy bitches).
Head
Of
medium length, broad between the ears; forehead line seen in profile
is moderately arched; zygomatic arch and stop well developed with strong
broad upper and lower jaws. The desired ratio of backskull to muzzle
is 3 to 2. Forehead is preferred dry, however some wrinkling may occur
when dog is alert. Expression is noble, alert, and self-assured. Eyes
of medium size, almond shaped with well fitting lids, moderately deep-set,
neither protruding nor receding. The desired color is a uniform dark
brown. Serious Faults--Yellow (bird of prey) eyes, eyes of different
color or size, hairless eye rim. Disqualification--Entropion. Ectropion.
Ears of medium size, pendant, triangular in shape; when carried alertly
the ears are level with the top of the skull and appear to broaden it.
Ears are to be set well apart, hanging forward with the inner edge lying
tightly against the head and terminating at approximately mid-cheek.
Serious Faults--Improper
