Montana Client | Professionally Matched DKV Rottweiler

I found DKV Rottweilers after researching Rottweilerbreeders throughout the US. I had never owned a Rottie, but had experience withlarge breeds. I knew going in that I was looking for a companion who wouldtravel with me on adventures, safeguard my family, be a couch cuddler, and alovable soul. I am forever grateful that I clicked on their website and startedreading about who they are, how they match their breeders, and theirexpectations for those they provide their pups.

I filled out a questionnaire as an interested buyer, and the thought and detail that was presented impressed me with the screening process. I received a call within a 48 hours and the interview was professional, friendly, and informative. Angel asked what was my ideal companion, was I looking for a companion or to show. A high drive for agility or a laid back temperament. He discussed how they match to breed and the legacy of their dogs. I honestly went in thinking what I wanted was a big male, and realizing what I needed was my Zoe, a smart agile female who fit in perfectly with the family which included two other active dogs and kids. Angel, Liz, and I were in communication via emailand text through the purchase process, and I loved being updated on thelitter’s growth. It was heartwarming to see the videos and pictures shared and I felt like I was there with them. If I had a question, it was responded towithin 24 hours, sometimes within the hour!

We received everything as promised and there were no surprises with cost as wetalked about it. The price paid for Zoe was more than worth receiving abeautiful, healthy, exceptionally well tempered show quality companion. I haveno regrets in choosing DKV Rottweilers, and have recommended them to the manyfriends and persons who’ve expressed their love and appreciation of Zoe. Trustthe process and in Angel to match you with the best fit for you. I will becoming back in the future for another companion for sure. Thank you, Angel andLiz. Always.

I will start my review by saying there is no better breederthan DKV and if you are looking elsewhere, don’t bother – you’ve found the bestof the best.

From my first interactions with Angel and Liz I knew they wouldn’t just be my breeders, they would be my family. I reached out shortly after losing my almost 13 year old Rottweiler, King Bob to explore a potential new puppy a few months down the road. After my first call with Angel months down the road was no longer an option and I would be flying down to pick up Queenie Bea a few weeks later. Thanks to their knowledge and support and truthfully undeniable love for the breed and all their dogs I’ve never once questioned my decision to get a puppy sooner rather than later.

When I drove up to the park on January 21st and laid eyes off Queenie Iinstantly started crying. My heart felt whole again. I think one of the best things about Angel and Liz is when they say you have life long support, they mean it. I love sending my monthly pupdates and sharing all our sweet memories with them. They’re also so knowledgeable and my go to for every question. I’ve lost count of the amount of people who have commented on her flawless looks and amazing temperament. I am always so proud when I get to say, my breeders are amazing and I’m lucky to have found them.

Being part of the DKV family is one of the most meaningful parts of my life. Queenie Bea and I are so lucky to have Angel, Liz, and DKV Rottweilers in ourlives!

Our experience with DKV Rottweilers started 2 1/2 years ago. We had just returned from a vacation out west where my husband saw a family with a rottweiler puppy. It brought back memories of a rottweiler he owned when he was younger and so our rottweiler journey began.

After 27 years of marriage and becoming empty nesters, and never having a dog in our home, we embarked on a journey to find a rottweiler puppy. This led to months of searching for the right breeder.

We came across DKV and felt that they really were special compared to other breeders we reached out to. We completed their questionnaire. Angel contacted my husband and they had multiple lengthy conversations. Angel and Liz were always very responsive and answered all of our questions.

After much thought and consideration, we applied for a male and were put on the waitlist. Our expectation was that we would be waiting months, maybe even a year before getting a puppy. We were pleasantly surprised when we were contacted that a litter was available. Angel sent the photos of the male options along with very detailed descriptions of their temperaments. All of these multi ribboned puppies were absolutely precious!

After making our selection, we were kept informed of his progress, vet visits, growth etc. Angel was always very communicative and willing to answer any questions we had. We were so fortunate to meet Angel and Liz as they personally delivered our new little puppy to our home in Florida. Our puppy was absolutely perfect. They spent several hours with us at our home. We felt so confident that we had made the right choice.

Our boy has grown into a handsome, strong, smart, and loving rottweiler. He is absolutely the love of our lives. Wherever we take him people comment on how handsome and well behaved he is. The vet’s office has said that he is one of the most gentle and sweet rottweilers they have ever had in their office. He is an extremely intelligent dog and loves to be by our side at home.

Angel continues to be a source of support for us when we have had questions about nutrition, training, behavior etc. He always responds immediately and offers great advice. We know there are many DKV families out there and although our boy is now 2 1/2 years old, we still feel that DKV will be there when if and when we ever need.

We would highly recommend DKV if you are considering a rottweiler for a pet.

Getting a Rottweiler was a long-term plan for me. I didn’t just want a dog, I knew I wanted a Rottweiler. One reason for this is that I relate well with their personality, as other Rottweiler lovers will understand. Also, for this reason, personality is important. I chose DKV, because I was impressed with their dogs from what I saw online. After I submitted my inquiry, Angel called me, and we had a good conversation that made me feel comfortable in choosing DKV. Liz always responded to my many questions quickly and kindly.

Long story short, I decided to drive from NH with my brother to pick up a puppy, and he’s been with me for a couple months now. After wanting and planning for a Rottweiler for more than a year, I might have developed high expectations and hopes. My Rottweiler has exceeded those expectations.

Aesthetically, he has a beautiful coat and big paws and bone structure. His temperament and personality are impressive. From the time we arrived home, almost everyone that interacts with him has commented on his excellent temperament. He is very social with people, dogs and kids. He is curious–a good balance between cautious and confident, not timid and not imposing.

He is very intelligent; for example, learning the names of new items after asingle introduction, quickly learning commands with little difficulty, and hehas a large vocabulary for any dog, let alone a puppy of his age. He has a highdrive, which makes it easy to direct his puppy energy to structured tasks.Although he absolutely loves playing with dogs, I have no difficulty securinghis attention, focus and obedience on me during exciting situations. Every timeI take him out, we receive numerous compliments and admirers for variousreasons. This will tell you that I am not speaking out of bias towards my pup!

I am looking forward to his future, and if I were to look for anotherRottweiler I would go to DKV first.

Our experience with DKV Rottweilers couldn’t have been moreperfect. From the well thought out interview process, walking us through theprogression of the puppy, to meeting us and transitioning the puppy into ourhome. We have had our DKV Rottweiler for over a year and the quality of thebreed cannot be understated. Our pup has been the most confident and wellmannered dog I have had the pleasure of bringing into a family. We have a youngtoddler and are 100% confident in our pup being a positive member with smallerchildren and that’s a testament to DKV’s quality of breeding. Please do nothesitate to work with DKV as they’re the best in the business.

We are new to the DKV family and I can already see what anawesome family to be part of!! We got our baby girl in July of this year andwere able to drive to Georgia to meet Angel and Liz at their beautiful home.From the minute you pull up you can see the pride in the home and kennel. Wewere greeted with the most kindhearted people you will ever meet.

Earlier this year we had to put our beautiful, sweet baby girl down at the ageof 5 due to a paralyzing cancer. We were heartbroken to lose our rotti. We knewwe would want another one day and started searching online for a reputablebreeder. We quickly came across DKV Rottweilers and knew from that moment thiswould be where we would find our new baby. We filled out the questionnaire andreceived feedback quickly that they had a puppy available. At that time we werestill grieving the loss of our baby and knew it was too soon. I had so manyquestions for Liz just due to the experience of our baby we just lost. Liz wasvery patient and understanding with me and answered all my questions. And letme tell you I had a lot. Lol. When we finally decided the time was right for anew baby, we were kept informed and when “D” day finally arrived we could notwait to get her.

Our Jetta is the sweetest, loving, beautiful and fast-growing baby girl. …Withour last rottie you learn that sometimes things happen out of your control. Itruly believe that Angel and Liz have the best Rottweiler breed around. After23 years breeding Rottweilers and all the testimonials going back to theirfirst litter that should say enough in itself. We stand behind you andwholeheartedly recommend DKV Rottweilers to everyone!!!

I had wanted a rottweiler ever since I was a little kid. When I got my rottweiler, Azula, I was 24 years old, and it was a long time coming. I had been searching online for at least a couple years, considering I knew I was ready after having just moved into a new home. DKV Rottweilers Website immediately struck a cord with me. Their website was super attractive, their Rottweilers were gorgeous, and you immediately got the sense that the owners (Angel and Liz) are very passionate about the breed.

After filling out a questionnaire/application, they were very prompt in getting back to me. The whole process was very smooth, and Angel made a great impression. My wife and I both work the night shift, and Angel made it apriority to talk with us on the phone at times that were convenient for us, such as when he was cooking dinner. He and his wife Liz (who consistently updated me with emails) care deeply about the families their Rottweilers are going to.

Angel told me from the beginning that DKV is family for life, and now I truly believe it. Even a year after getting Azula, Angel has reached out to us asking about how Azula is. He and Liz gave us training tips several times when we ran into issues, and they never made it feel like it was an inconvenience to them.

My wife and I both agreed that when we first saw Azula, she was the most beautiful dog we had ever seen. We are stopped constantly in public by people complimenting how beautiful she is, along with her excellent temperament. DKV Rottweilers are very much professionals when it comes to breeding and raising Rottweilers. She has never had an issue with any dog she meets, and it is an understatement to say that she loves everyone she meets. We were able to give Azula great training due to the wonderful foundation DKV gave us.

Maria and I will never do business with anyone but DKV Rottweilers. Thank you so much DKV for helping us to complete our family!

We were so excited to get a puppy from DKV. They made everything so easy. From making the payment to getting our puppy. Our Willis is the best looking Rottweiler ever. We get so many compliments. We could not be happier. Willis has a great temperament and learns really fast. We tell everyone about DKV and how great they are. We recommend DKV and would not even consider any other breeder if we decide to get a second puppy.

Idaho Client | German Rottweiler Placement

We couldn’t have been more thankful to have found DKV Rottweilers. The only dog I’ve ever dreamed of owning was a German Rottweiler and the dog we received was more than I’ve ever thought possible.

We found DKV and after reading all the amazing reviews there was no other place we would have thought of going. The communication and wonderful breeds they serve, you can’t go wrong in choosing them as who to get your Rottweiler from.

We received our handsome boy in October, and he’s been the light of our life since. He’s handsome, loves to play fetch, the biggest cuddle bug and we are just so grateful for the amount of hard work DKV has put in to serve everyone in bringing these amazing and joyful pups to all. We couldn’t be more thankful and there has never been an easier and more right choice than choosing DKV. We’re beyond blessed.

Absolutely great experience purchasing my Rottweiler puppy from DKV. They explained the whole process before I put down my deposit and Liz kept me updated very often on litters. I was looking for a stalky big broad headed male and that’s exactly what I got. My Rottweiler from DKV is more handsome then most breeders main stud male. I searched for months for the right breeder and once I saw DKV’s pedigree of rotts I knew they were the breeder I was looking for. I highly recommend DKV because of Angels and Liz’s sold-out dedication to the breed and producing world class Rottweilers.

I cannot recommend DKV Rottweilers enough for anyone lookingfor a high-quality, well-bred Rottweiler. From the very beginning, theprofessionalism and passion they put into their program were obvious. Theirdogs are not only gorgeous in structure and appearance but also come withexcellent temperaments, which is a direct reflection of the care and selectivebreeding practices DKV maintains. Communication was clear and consistentthroughout the entire process—I never felt left in the dark, and every questionI had was answered with detail and honesty.

What impressed me most was the dedication they have to the long-term health andstability of their dogs. They provide extensive information about bloodlines,training, and even ongoing support after you take your pup home. My Rottweilerfrom DKV is confident, intelligent, and already showing signs of incredibleloyalty. It’s clear these dogs are raised with love, knowledge, and integrity.

If you’re searching for a trustworthy breeder who stands behind their dogs, DKV Rottweilers should be at the very top of your list.

HEATHER GRIFFIN
Ohio Client | Traveled For Matched German Rottweiler

I remember when I decided that it was time to start lookingaround for my perfect Rottie. I knew going into it, that I wasn’t just lookingfor any Rottweiler. The first thing I knew was that I wanted a GermanRottweiler and I also knew to do my research on where I would get my Rottiefrom because getting one from someone who actually put time, effort, andknowledge into the breed is so important. So I went on the internet and startedlooking around. This was when I ran into DKV’s website.

I was over the moon impressed with everything I saw. There was another breeder that was local to me, but I didn’t get the same feeling with them as I did DKV. When I filled out the questionnaire, I heard back pretty quickly. I got aninterview with Angel and we had a great conversation. He makes sure you knowabout Rottweilers and what you are getting into. He was very informative andanswered any questions I had. I made my initial deposit and got on the waitlist that very night. They made it very easy to make payments toward my puppywhile waiting. They didn’t make you pay a certain amount, you put whateveramount you could towards it as often as you wanted too. They were veryresponsive with emails and stayed in touch through the whole waiting process.

When it came time to get my puppy, I was so excited! I decided to travel to Georgia myself to meet them and my puppy for the first time! Angel and Liz are just as amazing in person (if not more). The whole experience was nothing short of amazing. Fast forward my 9 month, almost 100 pound “puppy” is everything I could have asked for in a Rottweiler. His temperament and demeanor is amazing. He loves people and other animals. He’s exactly what I was looking for and will definitely be getting another DKV Rottweiler in the future. It is an honor to be apart of the amazing DKV family!
