Meet the breeder
I'm Tony R., the breeder behind Von alter Schönheit located in Avondale, AZ. I’m an experienced dog breeder who’s worked with several breeds. I truly fell in love with the Rottweiler. The loyalty, strength, & loving nature captured my heart. I focus healthy, well-socialized Rottweilers, dedicated to preserve the breed’s qualities & provide families with lifelong companions.
Q. & A. with Tony
Why did you start breeding?
My journey with dogs began about 27 years ago. Over the years, I’ve whelped and raised countless litters—both for myself and in collaboration with established breeders. About seven years ago, I fell in love with the Rottweiler, and they've held a special place in my heart ever since.What makes your program special?
A responsible breeder’s goal is to produce a well-balanced Rottweiler, with temperament as the top priority. This is the standard I hold myself to.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?
Our puppies are black and mahogany. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.
