Confident, intelligent, eager to please…these are just a few words to describe Flare. Flare is a young, male Rottweiler with so many of the qualities that Rottie owners love – he’s a strong, smart, and powerful dog with some youthful exuberance and boyish charm mixed in. Flare is looking for a confident leader.

He knows several basic commands, seems like he will be highly trainable, and also seems to be house trained. He loves to run around our play yard with a favorite ball. Like most things in life, there is a catch.

Flare will sometimes guard items that he really wants (food, toys, other objects such as trash – called “resource guarding”) and will require an experienced owner who is familiar with working and living with a dog that is a resource guarder.

We are seeking an adult home who has experience with Rottweilers and experience with resource guarding. Flare will not be adopted to a home with children or other pets. We will be looking for the best fit for a successful adoption.

We believe he will make an outstanding companion for the right people. If you are interested in Flare and you have the experience we’re looking for, fill out our dog adoption application at www.responsiblepetcare.org for more information.
