Maniac Kennels
Meet the breeder
I'm Michael P., the breeder behind Maniac Kennels located in Maryland. I breed well-rounded Rottweilers that can be family pets, working dogs, or show dogs. The health of my dogs is very important to me; I do health testing on my dogs and offer a one-year genetic health guarantee.

Elbow Dysplasia Finals (OFA, BVA, SV, FCI)
Elbow testing reduces the chance of passing down elbow dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause arthritis in the elbow joint and front leg lameness.
Juvenile Laryngeal Paralysis & Polyneuropathy (JLPP), DNA Profile
Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).
