Origins and History

The Rottle is a special dog that mixes the look of a Poodle with the strong body of a Rottweiler. It’s one of many new kinds of dogs that people have been creating in the last few years.

We don’t know exactly when the Rottle first appeared, but it’s definitely a new dog. People started mixing different kinds of dogs together in the 1990s to make dogs with special qualities. One of the first popular mixed dogs was the Labradoodle. It was smart, easy to train, and didn’t shed much.

Lots of people liked these new mixed dogs, so they started making other kinds, like the Rottle. Even though many people love Rottles, there aren’t any official dog groups that say it’s a real dog breed yet. But some special groups for mixed dogs do recognize the Rottle.
