No, it is not permitted to own a Rottweiler in Beijing. This is because Rottweilers are classified as large and potentially dangerous breeds, and their presence in urban environments can pose a risk of aggression towards people, hence the prohibition.
Rottweilers are categorized as large and aggressive dogs, making them illegal to keep in Beijing. These dogs have a very strong aggressive nature. In the last century in the United States, over half of the fatalities caused by dogs involved Rottweilers. Additionally, Rottweilers have an unstable temperament, being highly wary of strangers. An untrained Rottweiler can be a ticking time bomb when taken out, prone to attacking small animals or pedestrians for seemingly minor reasons. Furthermore, they possess a strong sense of territory and possessiveness; if other dogs or people enter their perceived territory, they may launch an immediate attack. They are also not friendly towards their own kind, initiating fights whenever they meet, showcasing their aggressive and unpredictable nature. These traits are why they are banned.
Despite being banned, Rottweilers possess many commendable qualities. They are quick to react, agile, and highly intelligent, making them exceptional military and police dogs. They are also robust, adaptable, and less prone to illness, which can be a convenience for their owners.
