A Rottweiler with Potential — and a Whole Lot of Power
When Brutus first came to Big N' Small Paws 317, he was your typical young Rottweiler — strong, curious, and completely unaware of his own strength. At 90+ pounds of pure muscle, every walk turned into a tug-of-war, and public outings were more about managing chaos than enjoying companionship.

But behind all that energy was a dog with heart, intelligence, and untapped potential.

His owners wanted more than basic obedience. They wanted Brutus to be trustworthy in public, responsive to commands, and respected as a well-trained Rottie. That's when they turned to our team at Big N' Small Paws 317, Indianapolis's go-to dog training experts for transforming raw energy into real-world obedience.

We didn't just put Brutus through a checklist of commands. His transformation started with relationship-based training, teaching him that his handler was the most rewarding part of his environment. Whether we were walking through Lowe's or training in a busy brewery patio, Brutus learned to focus through distraction, respond to voice and leash cues, and stay calm under pressure.

Our training style is blended:

-On-leash obedience and off-leash recall

-Public exposure work -

-Canine confidence building

-Impulse control exercises

-And most importantly: consistent praise, structure, and leadership  

After weeks of structured sessions, Brutus wasn't just better — he was impressive.
He passed his AKC Canine Good Citizen test with flying colors, proving that even a powerful breed like a Rottweiler can become a polite, people-friendly companion when given the right guidance.

From sitting calmly for petting to walking through crowds without pulling, Brutus showed what responsible ownership and professional training can accomplish.

Since earning his CGC, Brutus hasn't slowed down.
He's now excelling in advanced obedience and public engagement — from structured walks at festivals to focused drills in chaotic environments. His handler has become a confident leader, and the bond between them is unshakable Dog Training in Indianapolis.

We're proud to say that Brutus is more than just a "trained dog." He's a walking example of what's possible when dedication meets professional coaching.
