We had a female Rottweiler, Nina, who lived to be 13 1/2 yrs old. We got her at age 2. She'd already been spayed & had never had puppies, but "mothered" everything from baby goats, kittens & even loved our guinea pig.

I raised a Rotti cross he was nearly a full breed, he was one of the best pets we ever owned, we had 4 children. We had him for 4-5 years, then I received a Timer wolf which as so as nearly a full blood, mother was half wolf, father was full timber wolf. He came from a zoo keeper, she knew how he loved me and I him. At that time I was working in California and I own a home in BC Canada. This is where our Rotti lived. It was tricky to introduce them together but not impossible, the wolf was 16 months old. Our Rotti 4.5 years old and weight 185 lbs. We took them for walks daily sometimes twice a day. We own a house with a 1/4 ace of land with a 6 foot high cedar fence. This yard had trees grass and children, they both loved it. When I first, brought the wolf he challenged me, I understood wolves, so I body slammed him, a day later he tried again, I did it again. Now I was the Alpha male, I love his animal he was smart, smarter then most humans...amazing. I had to change my Rotti to a large tree for two days, I watched them feeling them out, then after two days. I seen the Rotti settle down, the wolf had no fear of the Rotti, he wanted to make friends. Now, I walked up to the Rotti, hugged it, unchained him let them fight, the Rotti won the 1st day, the next day the Wolf won, they became friends.
