In this video, I share the factors that led me to choose a Rottweiler over a Bullmastiff.
I had a male Rottweiler who passed about ten years ago. His protection of family AND property was incredible. To me anyway. Once, when he was about 6 months old , my son had a friend over who was borrowing a PlayStation game. Troll the Rotty observed my son's friend put the game in his pocket. Troll growled at him and wouldn't let him leave until my son showed him it was ok.. He was never taught that. It just came naturally. Loved that dawg to death.
Rotties are born guard dogs
Yep mine was 9 months old saved my wife from a suicide attempt by telling me what she was doing kept barking at the garage.
@@erikmurray3661 wow
You my man has the most pleasing voice, mixing that with such smooth jazz made this so enjoyable
😭😢🤣
He should do a jazz meditation.
I’ve got a bullmastiff cross Rottweiler that I had from the kennels over 10 years ago.she was 18 months at the time, she’s 12 now and still going strong. Amazing dog and still walks 5 miles most days. I know with cross breeds you don’t always know what you are going to get but they do seem to be healthy, fit and live longer.
Both Rottweiler and mastiff are great choice had 2 Rottweiler and two mastiff great dogs with kids very protective of family members. Best dogs ever
I’ve owned a bullmastiff. You were definitely right- drool, lower energy, very sensitive, not great in the heat. Amazing dogs. You wouldn’t have been disappointed.
@George L yes if well introduced
@@theofficialassmob WHAT DO YOU FEED YOUR BULLMASTIFF
@George L my bullmastiff loves cats, snuggles them and bathes them too lol. The cats will be walking around looking like someone gelled their hair haha. She's been great around other animals too, other dogs, bottle fed calfs, ponies, bunnies and chickens
John
I would say raw is the best choice! Wouldn’t recommend kibble at ALL! They live to 4-6 when fed kibble ;-; raw is better :)
George L Our bullmastiff loved our cat. He would chase him around the house and bark at him to play. Then the cat would chase him. Occasionally, he would get a scratch on the nose. They would play little games with each other all the time.
As a bullmasiff mom... Grrr. Best dog ever and my girl really doesn't drool. And hey neighbor, I'm a so Cali myself 💙
I owned a bullmastiff for 7 years and now own a Rottie pup. The bullmastiff was pretty much the perfect breed for my family. Hopefully the Rottie will be equally as good.
we have 3 bullmastiff now and we're getting a rottie pup in two days. hows your dogs relationship so far?
@@chloe7114 Our BM passed away from cancer before getting our Rottie. Our Rottie (who’s now nearly two) is quite dog aggressive despite lots of socialisation, unfortunately.
@Tenuli Absolutely amazing with the family (he's like a big pussycat with our 5yr old son), but 'interesting' with people outside of the immediate family. He can be be seemingly affectionate to people we introduce him to, but can turn on a dime for apparently no reason. At the vet he's a nightmare - a fear biter. We've had him since he was 8 weeks old and he's never had a traumatic experience and has had extensive socialisation and training. Also I should mention he comes from highly respected and trusted breeder from Australia who breeds for temperament and the ring - exceptional dogs. We just love him for who he is - that's all we can do.
@@bradferguson9840 watch Beckman dog training.
@@bradferguson9840 who is better in yout opinion in terms of family friendly, training, guarding house
i have a bullmastiff in freaking el paso texas and we hike and walk all the time, it gets 105+ btw
You are a very very rare case.
I presently have a male Rottweiler, had 2 males and one female over the years. Had a bullmastiff female, my parents had a breeding bullmastif couple and 3 friends had a total of 5 bullmastiffs, so I am well acquainted with both breeds.Both breeds get very very attached to their owner.In my experience bullmastiffs are mellower generally and require less excercise and I always felt safer with a little child with them.Great home guardians. Big big lovers.Shed a lot constantly and fart a lot ,which is great to blame them when you do.Two main things against the breed : cancer and fright of loud noises . All the bullmastiffs without exception that I have owned or known had to be euthanized because of cancer. Also all of them were afraid of gun shots, thunder, fireworks;puzzling because they were bred to accompany game wardens; shows what happens when breeding for conformation instead of purpose.And none of these bullmastiffs were related, and they were either from California or Australia or the UK . Rottweilers are more trigger happy, you got to watch them more closely around people. Very obedient when properly trained and very intelligent.Will be at someone's throat in the blink of an eye if they perceive them as a threat .Will let someone in the yard sometimes just to keep them from leaving,even if they have to wait 2 hours before the owner comes home, as it's happened to a couple of people in my yard,dog just sat or laid down in front of them, growling at them as soon as they tried to move.Absolutely have to have hips x ray before purchasing a pup, even borderline good will have problems and pain in old age.
So I take it your vote is for the rottweiler too?
@eli kane
Hey there! Big fan of your channel.
Just wanted to say congratulations on your new pup. Rottweilers are personally my favourite breed and I couldn’t be happier for you. All the best and thank you for the content!
Can't wait for your new video: Why I chose a Rottweiler over a Crocodile 🐊
I'm glad you pointed out the brachycephalic issues. People need to hear that more often.
I appreciate your honest opinion! I've had both and I got your opinion. I haven't had a large dog since 2002.
I'm retiring soon and I wanted a great companion and a great family dog. No small children in our home.
My 3 Rottweilers want to meet roscoe. Let’s do a documentarytv meet up I’m sure there’s so many subscribers in Southern California
Roscoe still needs his rabies shot.but after that we may do it.
Please do more videos on breed comparisons. I'm a big fan of your channel. Keep up the good work.
Well described description.
Just lost my bullmastiff.
He was a wonderful, magestic dog.
Now Im looking for a Rotti but would love another BM anyday.
I just got a Bullmastiff x Amstaff female. 3 months 15.8 pounds and intelligent. I'm happy with her.
Congrats. How big did your dog end up growing? How is it going ?
I prefer the bullmastiff
Love these videos.
Good video have you done a pros and cons video of a German shepherd ?
Great video as always!! Do a pros and cons on Argentino Dogo! Thanks bro
So accurate.... superb!👌🏾
Another great video! Can you do a video as to why you didn't choose the Black Russian Terrier over the Rottweiler?
Cleaning the skin folds around their mouth would be a con also.
I have a bullmastiff and all of your reasons are totally on point. I got very lucky and didn't get a drooler lol. Plus she's a runt, so she's only 100lbs. Veterinarian calls her a pocket bullmastif haha
Love your videos as always! All of your points are well thought out and valid. I am leaning towards a Bullmastiff. Every one I have met has been calm with the same energy that I have. I am not a high energy person and want a low energy large breed with natural protection abilities for companionship. I don't have small children; my son is 12. As far as drool goes, it might depend on the breeder's line. The breeder that I have in mind has Bullmastiffs with tighter jowls not loose but yes some drool may happen. In the few hours at the dog show neither the dog or the puppy drooled. Doesn't a Rottweiler drool a little too though? My only reason for not wanting a rottie is I am afraid of them, haven't' been around them and it would be my first large breed.
Great choice. I agree
5:00 thats a beautiful Rott. One of the best looking I have seen.
Naz lean as fuck. Looks very athletic!
My dude. I own a rottie and have all my life. Love bull mastiff too. Great video.
A rottweiler is technically a brachy as well, not quite as much as a mastiff. English Bulldogs, pugs, even worse in the heat
Kevin Charles true rotties are long nosed
I love how you are not DOGmatic (haha) on your channel and you cover a variety of different breeds and stress the importance of selecting the right breed for you, your family, and lifestyle.
Why would anyone want to dock a dogs tail, look how beautiful these dogs are with their tail. Amazing, I might adopt or purchase one.
Can you do one on the blue bay shepherd
Can you do a video of why didn’t you get a German Shepherd over the Rottweiler
Ryan Pendzik that’s an easy answer. He doesn’t want a super high energy dog. German Shepherds have high energy, drive and high exercise needs. They can be non-stop until maturity, especially the working lines.
Okay
I have both and my 6yo German Shepard is nonstop energy and wants to always play and my 14yo rottweiler is all chill and lazy
He did a video of the Doberman and they have Energy
Ryan Pendzik they are a protection dog, so they won’t want to do as much as a shepherd
Love my bullmastiffs. Only breed for me! My two have a high prey drive and are pretty high energy. But like you said, they can’t tolerate heat and man does my male drool! Between the slingers and messy eating/drinking, lots of cleaning involved... wouldn’t have it any other way. 😊
Lauren McNamara how can you tell about their prey drive ?? What behavior should I observe?
Lauren McNamara how can you tell about their prey drive ?? What behavior should I observe?
@@christian_urocarmy two dont get along with cats or smaller animals including most smaller dogs, despite lots of socialization and being raised with cats. They have an impulse to chase and go after them. Some lines have a higher prey drive than others. Also, as a side note, Bullmastiffs arent a dog friendly breed. They were bred to take on poachers as well as their dogs. Same sex dog agression is common.
@@renmcnamara6743 But he said they were dog friendly. ???
@@lsb9881 it really depends on what personality your dog has my bullmastiff has a high prey drive too but he only pins the dogs down and I try my best to controll him from doing that in public.
As soon as I get my piece of land I'm getting a BM as a patrol dog. Ofcourse I always have an AB or 2 on hand.
Very on point with everything on the Bullmastiff, the drool isn't as much as you would think, as they usually drool around food or when excited. One con of California Bullmastiffs is the varying look just like the Cane Corso. Lately the only good looking bullmastiffs are coming from PNW or outside of california which is making me reconsider getting another one, I may actually good with the Great Dane next after being in Bullmastiffs for 7 years
What type of Great Dane? American or European?
What is pnw?
I have a Bullmastiff x American Bulldog who is an amazing dog! Great guard dog, loyal, tolerant, gentlemen. So powerful and fit. The only downside is the amount of health problems he's had despite being really lean and muscular built. He's 8 1/2 years old now and has had 2 hernias (second happened after he was attacked twice in the space of a few weeks), he's had testicular cancer in one of his balls so had to be castrated, he now has vestibular disease and arthritis in his spine. Poor guy...
Still alive?
Ahhhh the wife. Always gonna be down to what the wife says. You know as they say, happy wife, happy life.
Can you go to more kennels/breeders. Even if it’s breeds you’ve already covered. Can get different info from different breeders and see different bloodlines etc
Hercules is the name of my two year old bullmastiff. He comes from a premier blood line. We got lucky on that part, but our local vet gave him his check up and he weighs in at 196 pounds. Yes they get BIG.
Chris Bolin they must be expensive, my dream is to own a very big and thletic bull mastiff
Do a vedio on the apbt
I have a bullmastiff and I agree with you.
I had a Rottweiler wen I was younger I lost him in the most cruel way somebody literally stole him from me when he was only 1 year old i left him for a day in my old house while we were moving houses The reason I didn’t take him with me right off the bat was because I was moving into a mobile home park and was unaware wether or not we could have dogs at the park not knowing that we were allowed dogs I made the mistake of leaving him in our old house for a single day well that same day somebody broke in and took him I asked my neighbors if they had seen the dog but nobody apparently saw him run away I found out years later that a man who use to live in my old neighborhood who new I had this Rottweiler broke into our house and took him I looked all over for him I looked for years but I had no luck I never saw my Rottweiler again I miss him so much he was such a great dog super freindly with every one at only a year old Wich was the reason he got stolen from me he didn’t know better he was just a pup I currently own a german shepherd +Belgian malinoi mix he’s a beautiful great dog but not a day goes by wer I don’t think of my rottie I’ll always remember him
My only issue with rotties is how short they live.. I hope one day they make a line that's healthier, otherwise you couldn't ask for a better breed.
What was your second choice?
Well argued opinion
Rotties are my favorite dog breed. I have the most experience living with one (her name was GiGi), lived in an apartment, and was an incredible guardian.
Big Rudd was she your first dog?
@@aym1240 For the most part. I had a huge fear of dogs, so I figured starting with a very misunderstood breed was a way to shake it. Now I have been around numerous breeds, learned their behaviors, and fell in love with the "bad boys" of the dog world, particularly rotts.
Big Rudd i was the same i was scared of dogs when was around 10 years old now i’m 17 and i am looking to bring one into my home later in live definitely considering a rotti 🔥
@@aym1240 You should man. She was the first dog I ever trusted and lived with. She broke my fear of dogs (was 120 pounds so had to not fear her.)
Yeah man I have a American Bulldog living in north Texas and 6-7 months out of the year can be tough on him. Can’t leave him outside in my big yard for more than a few minutes bc of how dangerous it can be for him.
True for all dogs. Will get worse as weather becomes hotter. Massive amounts of water w/ice cubes available constantly for dogs and cats if they are outside pets. Love them like you do your kids!
Johnson?
Yes Johnson
I got a breed in development I hope it one day gets onto one of these
Elaborate please
@@dirkdiggler6082 what do ya mean
@@mrstealyogirlwitextrasauce6167 what is the purpose of the breed? What breeds did you use?
@@dirkdiggler6082 to be able to kill pumas and the breeds I'm gonna use are bloodhound and pitbull
@@mrstealyogirlwitextrasauce6167 not interested in the dogo argentino?
If only I could get past the drool, bullmastiffs, Cane Corso, and boerbels would be an option 😭
Sassafras maybe sacrifice some drool for an amazing dog try the cane corso you might even handle it
Tibetan mastiff is your best bet then. They drool less and get bigger+stronger
Corso don't drool constantly
@@AItakover I understand that. I did not say they did ;)
which breeder did you get your rottie baby from?
5:03 damn that's muscle
Thats lucas, small but lean rottie
Hello. Do you have a video on, why I choose the Rottweiler over Presa Canario? I'm looking to get a new breed dog within the next month. And I'm dead locked between a Rottweiler and Presa Canario. My whole life I've grown up with German Shepherds and Bullmastiffs. And now I would like to experience something new. Do you have a video comparing the two breeds? Rottweiler and Presa Canario?
Hey Zik can you do why you didn’t pick a Presa? I would love to hear your reason. Keep up the great job.
Don't get it mistaken a bull mastiff is very gentle but they're even better protecters than rottweilers. They're bigger,stronger and were bred to protect. 130-200lbs with a 560psi bite force compared the rottweilers 120-130lbs 320psi
Jowly drooling loose lip dog is a deal breaker
Here watching 2022
Is the Rottweiler & the Bullmastiff apartment friendly and is the Rottweiler a good dog breed for a 2+ people and another dog (if the rottweiler has lived with that dog since being a puppy)
Edit: is the Rottweiler high energy?
Your second favourite dog is bullmastiff or boerboel or ... Choose one we know your favourite breed is Rottweiler bro..!
Team Rottweilers 👍🏼👍🏼❣️
Biggest thing that turns me away from bullmastiff is mainly health problems and short lifespan
My sister had a bullmastiff and Caesar was a very sweet dog, but unfortunately she didn't work with him, so he was very dog aggressive with anything but female dogs his size, he was neutered, and he would try to kill our cats if they got anywhere near him. My sister hates cats, so she didn't see a problem with this. But my dad and I both did.
Once again a terrific video (TEAM ROTTIE !!!) love my rottie girl Bella.Roscoe is so handsome..I'm sure he will be as easy to train as my rottie Bella who is now 16 months old!.The Rottweiler is so smart and social and loving and very protective they will not start a fight with another dog but never underestimate them, they will finish it !!
@@pitwolf4981 Stafforshire bull terrier? LOL
Im english and live in England,the home of the bullmastiff i have 2,a male an a bitch,i would recommened them to anyone that wants a protective,loyal and loving breed,they never leave your side.ive never had a rottie so cant say to much about them but there lovely looking dogs like the buĺly
Next video: why i chose rottie over German Shephard..just a request pls
Just curious why you didn’t go with a Doberman instead of a Rottweiler
Why did you choose the rottweiler over the tosa inu?
#DogumantaryTV plz do made a video for Rottweiler over Dogo Argentino.
Yeah for me the drool is the only reason I chose the Rhodesian Ridgeback over the bull mastiff. That's not to say that I won't ever have one, maybe some day when I have a good garage/shop space (sort of an indoor outdoor guys place) thats climate controlled I'll get one
I like everything about the bullmastiff except life span and drool....how much excercise does your ridgie need? Cuz it's also very high on my list, but I have a young family and can't spend 3 hours a day burning off its energy lol. I do camp and hike a lot so it would get tons of outdoor time, but in terms of daily needs, what should I expect to achieve a well mannered dog? I don't want to bite off more than I can chew!
Why I choose the Rottweiler over the dogo please !!!
maybe because it's to energetic
Why I choose the dogo over the Rottweiler .
Cizan he already did that one!
PacoVL46 I posted that comment before he had done it ..
Cizan my bad! 🙂
My bullmastiff was 165lb after some diet. He wasn't fat but I thought I lean him out so he would be healthier. He was 175lb at 2 years old. He sat at 165lb till he died at about 6 years old from an heart attack. So yeah with the right genetics they grow stolidly huge. Just not the healthiest breed out there.
I’m with you. Rottweiler over all breeds
Can we grow both the dogs (Rottweiler and bullmastiff) together
If raised together and socialised yes!
Should have got an Alapaha Bulldog
Can you do a video of why you didn’t get a Presa Canario over a Rottweiler
*the
Presa is unstable and dumb
If drool is a factor seems reasonable that he wouldn’t pick a presa
Bullmastiff incredible breed! But a watered down version of that of old and huge health problems due to small genetic pool. Also too undershot. They should open the pedigree to improve this such as adding a little English mastiff, Boerboel, Scott bulldog. While still conforming to its type and incredible attributes. Breeds should only need to conform to type, and shouldn’t need to be bred only with the same breed. Look what open pedigree does to the malinous!
A boerboel is more better than a Rottie, but a Rottie is better than a bull mastiff
Can you do why WHY U CHOSE THE ROTTWEILER OVER THE GERMAN SHEPHERD
he has a preference for short haired breeds for one
I have a 7 month old Rottweiler. Where'd u source the pup?
😎
My bullmastiff goes into the pool on his own when he gets hot 😂😂
I have a female rotti and as she has gotten older her has developed allergies. Vet sez grass....i would love another one, a male but this allergy thing is killing me. $110 for pills, dog food is also more, they tell me No Chicken or Beef has to be Fish plus it has to be With Grain.
Next dog will be raw.
I’m looking to get mastweiler mum is rotti and the dad is a bull mastiff . I have a 6 year boxer bitch . She is great with kids , has extremely highly prey drive always has done ! Her worst trait is that she has become dog aggressive only towards female dogs that’s she doesn’t know ! She has always been well socialist from a puppy. Fine with dogs she’s knows . If anyone has any experience with a mastweiller , I’d be grateful if you would share
The Cleveland Browns mascot is a bullmastiff.
Truth be told if you realise the history of the English breeds you won't buy them old world bulls where ferocious but its been removed by selective breeding, A Rottweiler has tenacity and a lot of energy but a bull mastiff is calm and its more of intimidating size than the aggression also Rottweiler is less expensive to care for while bull mastiff is expensive....
Boxers
do you know if bullmastiffs come in black and tan🤔you know ,Agouti
Timoteo Luna
They come in brindle fawn and red 😁
@@aditnowaz260 thanks for replying, I was just wondering because there are so many breeds that can come in the black and tan markings like a Rottweiler from chihuahuas, Doberman Pinschers, beauceron, Australian Kelpies, Manchester Terriers, Min Pin, pitbulls, Bulldogs, Staffordshire Bull Terriers, Bull Terriers and I'm sure many more
Aren't many breed lines of rottweilers also brachycefalic? They sure look as if they are.
That style of rottiweiler is not traditional and not really in line with the breed standard.
@@DogumentaryTV thanks for answering personally. This probably means that there are a lot of bad bad breeders out there.
IT MATTERS NOT WHAT BREED OF DOG YOU GET.... WHAT IT ALL MATTERS IS ABOUT THE OWNER'S "SPIRIT"... LOVE YOU ALL :-)
A video why didn’t you get a American bully over the Rottweiler
Cause its trash lol
Dirk Diggler right! Pig dogs!
"Select Bitch"???? @ 7:15
You made some very valid points, however, there were a few things you were off on, and misinformed about. Let’s start with global warming, lol ! We are still in an ice age, and the climate has shifted once again to cooling. Ok, now that that’s out of the way, the Rottweiler is more temperamental, and less pain tolerant, as well as more responsive. Meaning, much more likely to bite even you before thinking about it if caught off guard. I’ve been an animal trainer for nearly half a century now, have several degrees, with a focus on behavior. I Bred pit bulls for family guardians for nearly 30 years, with several other personal dog breeds myself before changing to the Bullmastiff. I spent 2 years researching my next, and now my final breed change. Not all Bullmastiffs drool, and some Rottweilers have drool issues. Something you probably didn’t consider is defense against other dogs. At the time I bought my first Bullmastiff pup I also still had a 80 lb pit bull, and a beautiful 130 lb highly aggressive German Rottweiler. At 8 months old, on two separate occasions, the pit, and rot attacked my Bullmastiff. Both the rot, and pit were ripped to the bone, and pinned within 30 seconds. Surprised the hell out me for sure. Both the pit, and rot nearly died, and suffered from a type of PTSD the rest of their lives. Those breeds are just not designed to handle the bite force of the Bullmastiff was my only conclusion. Indeed, the Bullmastiff takes a whole different understanding to properly train. At first I thought he was retarded, until I spent time observing him. He was choosing. Bullmastiff’s are deep thinkers, and very intelligent. It would take far longer to explain all of the reasons to choose the Bullmastiff over other guard breeds for a family setting, but this should give you a few things to ponder over before you buy your next dog. By the way, I still have the Bullmastiff, and he’s nearly 14 now.
Am happy to hear that your Bullmastiff is doing great. I don't mind the drool but only thing that puts me off is when they talk about health issues and life span. We would love to watch a video where you elaborate on the reason to choose Bullmastiff.Cheers
@@Sam-dh3tb well,...believe me , I’ve thought about it hard, and my choice is still to remain anonymous. Unfortunately, “ Bruno “, my 14 yr old Bullmastiff just passed away in his sleep about a week ago. I’m reviewing research for the right Bullmastiff lines.
67 cuda Sorry to hear that. He was luck to have a loving owner like you.
@@67cuda38 Did you find a good breeder? I am looking for one of working lines.
In spanish pls
Documentary TV should change its name to Rottie TV… Recent videos all got longer time for Rots (even the “Top List”).I ain’t disagreeing Rottweilers are beautiful dog but it is getting too much on it. Better content back in the days😞
Rottweiler sheds too much for me
Why rotty over labrador? :P
Lab offers no protection
Before I watch this video. Rotts are more serious. Bullmastifs are more dopey family dogs. You really need to know what your doing with a Rott. Not for first timers. Specially overseas blood.
I do Have a beautiful rottwiler 🥰🥰🥰 my son ❤️❤️
I'm not worried about "Global Warming" but I'm not ready to deal with a bunch of drool either.
