Cute! It looks like you guys have a ton of fun together. I highly suggest you get a pulling harness for your doggy though since that type of strain can be extremely damaging to his trachea and add all sorts of strain to his body.

That's one good looking dog!
I love you all, but please stop quoting massive posts with 4902384290 images, it makes it annoying to scroll through! <3 (Hint: break the image tags in the quote)
Why did a moderator add the warning to my post and removed the image tags? That's discriminating. So what that they're spiders, some people are afraid of spiders, others are afraid of dogs, yet we see dog pics everywhere. ;(
If they're "tame" I don't see the problem

This is the only image if our only current rottweiler that I could find We used to have 10 in the house many years ago, my parents have bred them for 25 years I think. Have about 20 dogs atm but they're mostly pugs and pomerians, might post pics later!
This is my one and a half year old Rottweiler(50%), Black Labrador(25%) and Border Collie(25%) mix, Samie. There was a hermit off the river where I work who had a few of these breed, unfortunately he passed away and by the time anyone thought about the dogs all but two had wandered into the wild. Saw one the other day, much longer fur and a whole lot shaggier looking, but the coloring is there. But let me tell you, she is 45 Lbs of furious puppy! She saved my life once, and caught a thief in my backyard who was trying to pry sheet metal from my shed- this vigilant guard dog barked, growled and tackled the man, biting his arm and leaving him with serious lacerations which required stitches. Another time when we were out on the river I was in the water sawing a log, and she barked a couple warning barks as two five-plus foot gators slid into the water not even a yard from me, allowed me to climb up onto the log, pulled my .44 and emptied six into one, the other left. Finished pulling that log from the channel, and brought home dinner. -I- would have been dinner if it weren't for the pooch! <3
Her hobbies include hunting, playing tug-of-war or fetch, and lap-dogging while I play video-games. She's a amazingly good swimmer, but she really doesn't care to much to jump into the water, which may be in part to the gator / moccasin infested river I work off of though.
Edit: When I found her she was only a little over a month old, I have puppy pictures and video that I still get teary eyed watching.
I used to have a Spider in my room, I don't know how it got in and it wasn't larger than half my thumb, including the legs, but it felt like having something like this http://svensguide.com/wp-content/upl..._Dads_hand.jpg in the room, constantly on the prowl, staring hungrily at my neck and my Red Bull.
It didn't get better when it randomly disappeared and never showed up again.
We also have a King Charles Spaniel much like this one, called Lady because it fits, with a brown spot on her forehead that resembles a heart!
