Roxy the Rottweiler

She is 5 months old in the pics.

But my question is someone told me she has an interesting face. I kind of think the same but i’m not sure exactly what it is.

Would you call her face “typey ” as they call it?

Or what is it about her face that looks a bit different? Thanks in advance

Hi Nathaniel,
Great photos, Roxy is looking good at 5 months, she’s going to be a big girl I think.

Interesting question, and you’re right her face is unusual to some degree, and I’ve studied it quite a bit but it’s difficult to put my finger on what is making it different.

A photo from the side showing her head profile would have helped but it’s very difficult to use photos to judge something like this (or size/breed type etc.)

I would guess her ‘look’ is due to a distinctive appearance in her bloodlines, some dogs pass on very recognizable features – and these are neither good or bad, it’s just genetics.

It looks as though her muzzle may be upturned just a little towards the nose and her nostrils are maybe a little larger than average. I think the difference lies in her muzzle shape/width/depth but I’m just not exactly sure!

She definitely has a ‘look’ which I have seen before and is strong in some bloodlines. ‘Typey’ is possibly a good description.

She’s still a puppy and has nice strong features for one so young, I would guess that she’ll ‘grow into them’ and as she gets bigger and heavier her face will change some, maybe becoming less distinctive, maybe not. Either way is fine because I think she’s a nice looking pup who’s going to be a very strong and good-looking adult. Best of luck with her.

I like reading comic books. one in all my favorite Japanese Coach Factory Online comic characters after I was young was the stunning huge fat blue cat-Doraemon. The animated series was initial broadcast in 1973 Coach Factory by Asian nation tv, however it didn receive the expected results till 1979 once TV Asahi made associate degree anime series of Doraemon. It became implausibly Louis Vuitton Canada well-liked since then, and it still runs these days, with over 2000 episodes thus far.

I have a 5month old Ruby and she has a lovely face too. A lot of people comment that she is too pretty to be a rottie, to which I take exception too,as a breed I love them.

I think what they mean is she has a slightly softer face, a bit like roxy. I do think though that this will change as they get older, however i never get tired of hearing from people how cute she is, so just enjoy the compliments.

I think Roxy looks absolutely adorable…..

I would add a pic of Ruby but dont know how too!!! lol

She’s beautiful. NEW
by: Christopher Bayhi

That???s a pretty girl with a lovely, expressive face. The third photo seems to show more of a rounder eye than an almond eye. The nose does seem to be slightly upturned, and the ear flaps are slightly large but meet standards. She still has a lot of growing to do so as her head gets bigger the ears will look more proportional. She is an absolutely beautiful Rottie!
