See what's onThe Club's members have shown their devotion to their dogs by loving them as family members, by importing dogs to improve our gene pool, by showing their dogs to Grand Championship status, by training their dogs to Obedience Champion and Working Dog titles, by attending the ADRK (German parent Club) shows in Germany, and by encouraging new friends into the breed.
The Club's committee works to get the very best International and New Zealand judges to judge its annual Specialist Championship Show. The Rottweiler Club has also hosted the Rottweiler National Championship Show.
The Club's current committee is invigorating the Club with a reconstructed website, active fundraising for future events, placing dogs by introductions through Rottie Rescue, and organising shows that celebrate our wonderful breed.
Again, welcome all to our Rottie world.
