BEST BREEDER FOR ROTTWEILERS! Alice is extremely passionate about her dogs, well-versed in the breed, and will not sell her dogs to just anyone. Reason being? She's responsible and deeply loves and cares for them and as a result, both knows and produces what I believe are the very best dogs one could ever dream of. I got my boy Boaz after waiting 3-4 yrs for the right time, (had already interviewed and placed my deposit) and I have now, *the greatest companion in the world!* My dog has an excellent temperament, was/is easy to train, (he can & does go most everywhere with me!) and is the biggest love bug who always wants to be beside or around me no matter how many times I go into different rooms or inside/outside. Lol. He is also very social and loves to meet and get loved on by new people and is friendly with all other animals. He is also superb with children and has thee best personality!!! I can't think of a day when I don't look at him in love and adoration or a day that he doesn't leave me giggling! He's my first pet ever, and a very intelligent one as well. He has been the biggest blessing to me. Pricing? Ask Alice. Her dogs may seem to be expensive, but they are worth every penny spent and as long as you are passionate about your pup and invested in them as an owner; you will not be disappointed if you are able to get one of hers because she simply produces the BEST, all-around. The kind of dog you get from her is truly priceless and you'll be grateful years down the road, as she has done her research and more and has put the time, energy, love, and devotional care into making sure they are bred for proper conformation, (as well as temperament) giving you the best chance at having a long and healthy life together w/your dog, (good genetics + good ownership are a great combination for fullness of life and longevity!). And on top of all that? If you need anything at all and reach out to her, she will respond and help you out with any questions you may have despite how busy she is, (she has been very good to me/us in this, so I can say this!). My Boaz is 11 months old now, and I am already on her list for my next one that will be Ruthie, and I can't wait to meet her! If you are questioning whether or not to buy from Alice, or someone else, I would say this is your sign to buy from Alice. You won't be disappointed! read more

After my research and owning 3 rottweilers in the past, I decided on this breeder. Flown my dog to Arizona. My dog had 2 surgeries at for joint issues. Paid 10,ooo. He died in August of stomach cancer. He was only 9. He was MY son. He could never properly walk, be social. My heart is forever broken. I think the breeder STILL posts pics of him. I would like to ALSO say that if it wasnt for the monthly holistic visits, medications, laser & pool therapy, raw diet, ect. Ect..ect... my son would have NEVER lived to this age, I wouldn't have expected him to live past 5-6yrs old. read more

I spoke to Alice a few times on the phone and researched her Guardian Rottweilers online and on her website. I also checked with several other breeders across the US, and researched some overseas. I then made an appt to meet with Alice at her house way out in the middle of nowhere in Bargersville. She has about 10 acres there and lives a mile back off the road behind some woods with a pond. She has a couple very nice big barns built just to house her Rottweilers. Alice is quite the talker, and she may seem a bit crazy, it's just her personality and the fact that she is extremely passionate about her Rotties. She seems to know almost everything there is to know about the breed she sells. She considers them her children, although she does have a husband and several human children too, haha. I was at her home for several hours that day, and she showed me her facilities, and she had about 20 Rotties on site. And she let me play with an adult male, and he was fun playing ball with, he would even jump in the pond and swim to get the ball and bring it back, haha. The whole time she was talking educating me about the Rottie breed, to a point for a sort of newbie, it was almost information overload. Her decade of experience vs my 2 months of research, haha. These very large muscular dogs can be very intimidating, especially when they bark or growl with their deep bark. But I felt safe the whole time I was there. Then I got to play with the cute little 8 week old male pup that I choose. Alice rates each dog in 2 ways, either pet quality or a show quality. I opted for the more expensive and more flawless show quality dog. I don't say how much I paid, because people would think I am crazy, haha. And I do not know what Alice charges others, so I am keeping the cost confidential. Call Alice for current prices, ha. Myself not being a dog expert at all, I trusted Alice and she showed me some of the differences in pet quality vs show quality. Such as their teeth being all straight and correct in alignment, eyes, snout, ears, stance, legs, etc all in perfect placement, and so on. The pet quality dogs are also excellent quality, but may have a slight reason why they will never grow up to be show quality dogs. I decided to purchase my new lil buddy and take him home with me. Alice said she had people bounce checks on her and dispute credit cards in the past, so she only takes cash. Which was fine by me. She gave me a warranty for the dog, lots of paperwork, and went over lots of things about what I needed to do next and so forth, and she gave me a small starter package of a few items since I now needed to go to a pet store and get more things. With all the trips Alice makes to Germany and other countries, feeding all those big dogs, having a hired hand help with them, veterinarian bills, and much more. Even though the price may seem expensive, I do not think she is making much profit. I think Alice just loves for her breed to go home with a nice person or family who can afford to give the correct care to the dog and take care of it properly and love it for the rest of its life. Alice will turn away buyers if she thinks they're not a good fit for her dogs. If you really want to get Alice riled up just ask if it's okay to cut off their tails and breed them in your backyard, lol. I had an excellent experience purchasing my Rottweiler, and he gets his normal check ups and shots and has been very healthy loving dog towards me. He is protective of me and a very playful, fun, and smart dog, who was easily and quickly house broken. His official name is Ullock Von Gottschalk and he is a great companion, with no health issues at all. read more

Top of the line place to go if you are truly looking for an exceptional Rottweiler . Their attention to details of the bloodlines along with the character and quality of the dogs are second to none. Total love for the dogs by them is truly obvious and shows. We have three Rottweilers from them and the true love and character of them could not be better. Highly recommend them if you are truly looking for a dog that will be forever part of your family. read more

I have purchased 3 dogs from Guardian Rottweilers, each of them have been amazing dogs. When I went looking for a Rottie I found they were close, called and asked if I could purchase one of their dogs. Alice stated she does an in person or phone interview before accepting a deposit on one of her dogs as she makes sure you will be a good fit for one of the puppies as well as the puppy for you. I found her to be very knowledgeable, easy to talk with and accessible if I had questions after bringing my puppy home. After my experience with Guardian Rottweilers, I wouldn't go any where else to purchase one of these amazing dogs! read more

We researched our hearts out before choosing Guardian Rottweilers as our breeder. We adopted our Rottie puppy through her in January of 2012. She has the BEST temperament of any dog I have ever met. Super chill and sweet to everyone. Not to say she isn't protective -- we know she'll let us know if someone is on our property and if we don't want them there her very presence and bark is enough to keep them away (salesmen, haha!). We had a lot of questions during our puppy's first year and Alice was always available to us. The passion you see on her website isn't just lip service. She went above and beyond for us and we think the world of her and her dogs. We're getting our second puppy now and couldn't be more excited! The quality of her dogs is phenomenal. Everyone comments on our dog's beauty, her smooth and shiny coat, her muscles, her smile. :) She's a gem. read more

In 2011 I lost my beloved 12 year old rottweiler. 6 months before she passed I started thoroughly researching breeders for my next dog. I am a veterinarian in practice for over 12 years now and found Guardian Rottweilers the only breeder that met the standards of care, ethics, compassion, and love of the breed I wanted. With any animal there are potential medical issues that cannot be predicted as they are like us unique individuals. But I do believe they are very truthful and actively breed to prevent as much as they possibly can. They go above many other breeders in informing owners of common medical issues with the breed as well as the role owners will play in joint development and behavior. Their facility is clean, the animals are clean and in good shape, they were all friendly even those on loan there for breeding. When we picked up our puppy my husband and I were greeted by one of their Rottweilers running across the yard from playing with her kids. She greeted us with a quiet once over and sniff, found us nonthreatening, and escorted us to the front door. Alice showed off her dogs and facilities with pride and joy. I wanted to stay! My dog did develop atypical Addison's disease that is rare and easily treated. I have seen this in mixed breed and purebred dogs over the years and know it was just bad luck. Good news is normal quality of life and normal life expectancy. We were not going to breed and being a vet I believe my pets find me to take care of them. She is now 4 years old, is amazing with my kids, other dog, and cats. Even though she is spayed she even tried mothering a litter of orphaned kittens we helped raise! So sweet. Her confirmation is amazing and trainability is too. At training classes as puppy even breeders would come up and say what focus and drive she had. I've met good breeders and bad breeders over the years and I can honestly say that Guardian Rottweilers is one of the best I've come across. Please educate yourself on the breed and cost of owning a dog including vet care before you invest in this wonderful breed. If you do your homework and still want a rottweiler them Guardian Rottweiler's is a great choice to look into. read more

BEST BREEDER EVER! My wife and I have been on the waiting list for almost 5 years- by choice- we have had many, many opportunities for some absolutely amazing puppies. Almost 5 years ago, my wife received the worst news possible and we told Alice we would not be able to get a puppy at this time but asked if we could still stay on the waiting list and not lose our place in line. Alice was very accommodating and checks in on us all the time. I have never met a more passionate breeder or just genuinely good person. She sends out a copy of the waiting list to everyone on the waiting list so you know exactly where you are, who is ahead of you, what they want, and what they get. I have never met anyone that honest and transparent. She also points out flaws that a layman such as myself would never see on a puppy and wants to make sure that everyone who gets one of her puppies knows exactly why this one was pet or show and what this puppy would be best suited for. She will not sell to just anyone. You have to go through an interview and be worthy of this breed. 4 years before we placed a deposit to get one of her puppies, we rescued a Rottie mix from Alice that she had rescued from a shelter that would have been euthanized. She not only paid for life saving surgery for Karina, but trained her for several months before she would allow us to adopt her. Her adoption price did not change even though Alice spent just under $2000 to save Karina. Even though Karina is not one of Alice' Guardian Rottweilers, she is such a great girl and I know a lot of that is the training and socializing she received from Alice and her family. After we adopted Karina, we knew then that eventually, we wanted one of her puppies. In the 4 years we followed her before placing a deposit and the 5 years we have been on her waiting list, she has never raised the price of her puppies. Pet puppies still start at the same price and show puppies still start at the same price. Yes, she sometimes has some more expensive puppies available, but she also has pet puppies priced on her low end in almost every litter. The problem many people have is they want the most expensive puppy in the litter but they want to pay the cheapest pet price for him. I know a lot of people are also too impatient to wait and they want the puppy right now, like it is fast food. Alice has a saying, "Puppies, especially Rottweilers, should not be an impulse buy." I could not agree more. Being on her waiting list and receiving her weekly PupDates where she shares all of her travels, show and working results, tells us stories about her dogs and puppies, shares links when her dogs are on Animal Planet or National Geographic or on the cover of yet another magazine, and gives us important tips about this breed, they have been the highlight of my week for nearly 5 years. I know because of the information she has dispensed to us over the years, I will be prepared when I bring my puppy home. But thankfully, Alice will be there every step of the way, for the entire life of this dog if I do have any questions. Knowing I am on her waiting list and that, as soon as we are ready, I will be able to have one of her Guardian Rottweilers has gotten me through some pretty tough times. Thank you for every thing you do for this breed Alice, and thank you for my Karina too read more
