We raise loyal, level-headed Rottweilers from genetically tested parents — and we place them only in homes with the space, time and commitment a working dog needs.
We’d rather say no now than take a puppy back later. Read both columns honestly, if the right side sounds like your situation, this isn’t the breed for you, and we’ll happily point you elsewhere.
Good fit
A Rottweiler thrives here
A house with a large, securely fenced yard
Daily exercise — real walks, work and play, not a quick garden break
Someone home often enough to train consistently from week one
An owner who has read up on working breeds and wants the job
Room for a 100 lb adult dog to move through the house
Not a fit
A Rottweiler will struggle here
Apartment or condo living with no private yard
Long workdays with the dog left alone and unstimulated
A first dog for an owner who'd rather skip formal training
Buying for looks, status, or as a surprise gift
A household that can't commit for the dog's full life
Our puppies are not suitable for apartment living. That’s not a formality, it’s a condition of placement.
Every adult breeder is tested before a litter is planned.
Genetic screening tells us which pairings to make and which to avoid. Results for the sire and dam are shared with every buyer, in full, before a deposit is taken.
Three things every one of our puppies needs from you.
Space
A large yard, properly fenced
Rottweilers are powerful, high-drive dogs. They need room to run daily and a fence that holds a determined 100 lb adult.
Training
Structure from day one
Start obedience early and keep it going. A trained Rottweiler is a joy to live with; an untrained one is a serious handful.
Commitment
An owner who shows up
This is a working-dog mentality in a family dog’s body. They want a job, and they want to do it beside you.
Our kennel
We breed the way we'd want someone to breed for us.
McMahon Rottweilers Kennels was built on a deep love for animals and a simple belief: better breeding decisions make better lives for dogs and the families who take them home.
That means testing our adults before we pair them, raising every litter underfoot in the house, and staying available long after a puppy leaves — for the first night, the first vet visit, and the first hard training week.
They asked us more questions than we asked them. Two years on, they still check in on him.
Rottweilers need daily space to move and a secure yard for off-lead exercise. Without it, boredom turns into destructive behaviour and stress for the dog. It’s a placement condition, not a preference.
Start with the enquiry form. We’ll talk through your home, yard and experience, then place you on the list for a suitable litter. Deposits are taken only after that conversation.
Well-bred, well-trained Rottweilers are devoted family dogs. Their size and drive mean supervision and consistent training are non-negotiable in a home with young kids.
