Stalter Rottweilers
Meet the breeder
I'm Michael S., the breeder behind Stalter Rottweilers located in Pontiac, IL. I started a breeding program designed to have an excellent working and excellent temperament combined with strict adherence to the Rottweiler Standard. Our goal was to have Rottweilers that would love their family and home, being gentle with them yet defending their family and home against criminals and those who would do harm to them. I believe we succeeded in achieving this goal.
