Rottens all the way.   I've had 4 and they are the best.  Big, loud and scarey.  Even the ones that are afraid of people.

 :wave: After the last experience I had here with renters and pit bulls, no pit bulls. I like Rottweilers ok, just more of a hound dog person  :)

I have both, I have a 5 year old female pit and a 4 year old male rott.
 Both of which are so loving to my girls that they must be by my girls all the times. If they can't be around my girls they diffenetly let someone know that they are not happy about the situtation.
 Of course it depends on how the dog(s) are raised. Loving, outside dog, a lap dog...so on.

 Just my two cents!

I have black lab. But no sense in explaining anything, go to wikipedia and look up your breed.

I prefer rottweilers.  There have been too many problems in my area with pitbulls biting and attaching people, especially children.  Not to say that rottweilers will not attach, but my husband had one when we were dating and he was huge and as gentle as a lamb.  I'm not sure if something is wrong with the breed or if people are training pitbulls to be this way.

never-never is it the breed and you'll never convince me otherwise. mean dogs are mean because something or someone has been mean to them.
 i'll take either one but...
i'm partial to rottweilers. my dixie died this past january 27th. she was a 12 yo rottie and my life and views about these kinds of animals has changed, for the better, because of her.
i didn't want her (i had kids and was pregnant) but my stubborn husband brought her home anyway.
she just stayed in the corner for the first week, sizing us up. and after that...she was guardian and playmate for my kids. if someone came over to see my newborn daughter, dixie got right in the middle to protect her.   i miss her!

I have 3 dogs, a pure bred red nose pitt, a black lab/border collie, and a pitbull/malamute mix.....  The one that I like best is the red nose pitt, and the lab is pretty sweet, but the pitt mala mix is a pain in the butt!

Rottweilers require a lot of attention and pitbulls have really sensitive hearing, guess that is why I am a cat person.

you know, honestly, i prefer a good ol' mutt. they're just as sweet as any other dog, sometimes more so. and they need love just as much as anyone else. i currently have a dalmation, three black lab mixes, a beagle mix, a fox terrier mix, and a shepherd/golden retriever mix ;p we're just a very colorful family<3.

I have a rottweiller aussie mix that I inherited when he was about six.  What a love of a dog! He is very affectionate but protective too.  Loves to do right and feels real bad if he doesn't do what we tell him.  He can be a little scary since he is so big and he doesn't see far away real well so sometimes he barks until he recognizes who is there.  But what a great dog!

Rottweiler - I grew up with neighbors that had 7 and they were very well behaved.  However, I would probably not own either because I prefer other breeds I hope to own someday like Newfoundland, Great Dane, Huskie, Mastiff, Lab, or Chow Chow.  Personally I think mutts are the best.  I currently own a mutt that I never figured out what breed he is a mix of, but he was supposed to be a Newfie/Lab mix.

I think pit bulls are more dangerous because their jaws lock. Rottweilers are scary but less lethal.

Rotts!  Ive had several in the past.  One weighed about 150lbs.  Youcon Alexander Von Lane was so gentle and loving.  We went on vacation one year and had my Mother-in-law stay with our babies and she said he fell off the porch and had a stroke and then couldnt walk.  Wished I had been home.  We had one, Boomer, who was small.  He had this cough and we kept taking him to the vet for it and
they kept giving him different meds but nothing worked.  Then one night he started howling and whining, so we went out there and he
was laying on the ground and he tried to pull himself to us but couldnt.  We went over to where he was and he let out another howl then
passed away.  We have so many heartbreaks with dogs but I love them.

I love all animals but my preference in dogs is German Shepherds.   
We got ours from the SPCA when she was about 5 years old. 
She is very skittish but one of the sweetest dogs I have ever met.

Rottweilers, definately rottweilers!  I grew up with them, and they are so smart and loving.  Our one Rottweiler, christy, loved everyone and was afraid of everything including our little poodle/chuahua dog!  We called her Wimpweiler.  But if someone were to try to harm any of us I know she would have torn them a new one.  She was our spoiled rottenweiler!  ;D

I used to have a rottweiler. I think they get a bad reputation. They are really nice dogs and I kind of wish I had another one.

I definatley prefer pitbulls. They are the greatest dogs to have around children as long as you raise them right and treat them good. Right now Ive got a 9 week old australian sheppard/german sheppard/blue tick mix.

I love any type of Lab. However my favorite dog is the chocolate lab. They're very family oriented and usually don't have an attitude.

I hate small dogs. They're annoying and make too much noise.
