Torma kennel as training place for Rottweiler
Rottweiler fitness training
The position of the dog’s body is horizontal, and that means that in addition to his anatomy, physical activities are also very important if we want the dog to look strong, and in good condition.
I will give you a direct tip on how to do the training and how to feed the dog because we know that after every hard training there must be a quality meal.
We can only apply this type of training to dogs older than one year, until then, everything should be play and as much activity as the dog wants voluntarily.
It is very important to first check the condition of the dog’s hips, elbows and Heart.
Depending on the location where we live and depending on the climate in which we live, different types of training and nutrition are applicable.

winter time
In the winter period we build fitness, in the summer period we maintain fitness.
In the winter period, the training intensity is higher and of course the caloric value of the meal is higher, therefore, the weight of the dog is higher. During the winter period, dogs endure a greater effort and a higher intensity of training, and caloric food contributed stronger and bigger.
In addition to protein, food in winter should contain more fat and more carbohydrates.
I’ll try to explain it to you graphically. Imagine the dogs that, at minus five to -10 degrees Celsius, run a gallop of 15 to 20 km every other day, and when they come to the kennel, they have a very high-calorie meal.
And I can tell you from personal experience that after such a training process during the winter period of three to four months, the dogs come out with enormous strength.
It is clear that after the winter period and the training process in the winter everyone comes out with a very good mass and in a very good condition, but there is a few drawbacks in dogs and those are softer top line and few extra pounds. It is the same as in other sports, one part of the year is basic preparation and the other part is conditioning.
✅ Clean & professional The topline is one of the most important features of a dog, especially in motion. Only one type of exercise truly develops a firm, stable back while moving — trotting. ✅ More elegant / show-style The topline is a defining feature of a dog, particularly when in motion. A firm, stable back is developed through one essential exercise — trotting. ✅ Stronger, more impactful A dog’s topline is most important when in motion. Only one exercise builds a strong, steady back — trotting.
I begin trotting exercises or light jogging in the spring and continue through the early part of summer. During this period, the dog is placed on a controlled diet with slightly reduced fats and carbohydrates, and an increased level of protein.Throughout these spring months and into early summer, combining trotting with this adjusted diet helps the dog lose excess weight while developing lean muscle. As a result, the musculature becomes more defined, particularly in the thighs, croup, and shoulders.By the beginning of March or April—depending on the length of the winter—the dog is properly conditioned and ready for the show season.
With this training approach, the dog reaches peak condition for the autumn show season. Success in conditioning requires patience, dedication, consistent work, and high-quality, well-balanced nutrition.
