Tommy, rottweiler

Tommy is a sweet male rottweiler staying at Southern States Rescued Rottweilers.

Tommy loves other dogs, but he is looking for cat-free forever home. No need to worry: He is already house-trained, neutered and vaccinated.

Tommy's current caretakers say:

Tommy is a very sweet boy, and he is very active and high-energy. Tommy is not aggressive, he just plays hard and doesn't realize it or realize his size. Tommy walks well on a lead and he knows basic commands, but he needs a firm hand and a breed experienced owner.

Matcha, rottweiler

Matcha is a female rottweiler being cared for at Southern States Rescued Rottweilers.

Matcha will get along great with your other dogs, but her ideal forever home would be a cat-free environment. She's already house-trained, vaccinated and spayed.

From Matcha's current caretaker:

Matcha loves to run around the yard and playing with her balls. She loves to be snuggled and get belly rubs, and she loves her foster mom and foster dad. Matcha really needs to be in a home with no cats and where she is the only female.

Hemi, rottweiler

Hemi is a lovable male rottweiler in the care of Southern States Rescued Rottweilers.

Hemi will get along great with your other dogs, but his ideal forever home would be a cat-free environment. His vaccinations are already up to date, and he is neutered. He has also mastered his house-training etiquette.

From Hemi's current caretaker:

Hemi is a very loving, large male Rottweiler. He loves to play with squeaky toys, go for walks and play fetch. Hemi will do well in a home without another alpha male, as he is one himself. Hemi can be protective, so his new owners should be experienced and be willing to provide him proper exercise and training. He enjoys a good snuggle and is very gentle when accepting treats.
