  1. Brutus the Rottweiler: Chaos to Canine Good Citizen Indianapolis

Brutus the Rottweiler: Chaos to Canine Good Citizen Indianapolis

Brutus the Rottweiler: Chaos to Canine Good Citizen Indianapolis

J Wilson

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.

Real-World Dog Training That Works

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  

Earning the AKC Canine Good Citizen (CGC) Title

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.

Beyond CGC: What’s Next for Brutus?

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.
