This might be a dumb question, but is he a german shepard?
I have a friend that had one from a puppy too. The dog was very protective and would only listen to him. As nice as that sounds, he was too protective. The dog would not listen to his wife at all and that caused problems when only she was around with the dog. The dog was so protective of his yard, when a young child crossed in to their yard the dog attacked him. The child was left with just scratchs but my friend was scared of what might happen next... so he took him out back with his S&W & ended the problem.

Enzo is a Rottweiler. Pronounced = ( ROTT-why-ler)
Description
The Rottweiler has a massive, powerful body. Muscular and athletic, it has a broad head and rounded forehead. The muzzle is well-developed with a scissors bite. Its eyes are dark with an expression of goodwill and loyalty. The ears are triangular, carried forward, and its nose is wide and black. The lips are black and inside the mouth it is dark-colored. The tail is customarily docked. Often born with rear dewclaws, these are usually removed when the tail is docked. The coat is short, hard and thick. It is black with brown markings on the cheeks and muzzle, paws and legs. A red color with brown markings also exists. There is a deficiency in the hair gene making the coloring a lighter red. Rottweiler bitches often have large litters; 12 puppies are not uncommon.
Temperament
The Rottweiler is calm, trainable, courageous, and devoted to their owner and family. They have a reliable temperament. Protective, he will defend his family fiercely. These are strong fighters that seem immune to pain. Serious, steady and confident. Firm and careful training is essential for this breed, otherwise you may end up with a very powerful and overly aggressive dog. Yet they can, with proper handling, also be loyal, loving and very rewarding companions. They require owners who can handle their massive size. The Rottweiler is a natural guard dog with a mellow temperament. They are highly intelligent and have proven their worth beyond question in police, military, and customs work over many centuries. Because of their size, training should begin fairly young - while the dog is still small, and great care should be taken to ensure that the dog is not made vicious. This breed needs a lot of companionship and socialization to be truly happy. They can be aggressive with other dogs and should be kept on leashes in public places. When the Rottweiler is consistently brought up and trained, it will be a good playmate for the children. It will accept cats and other household pets as long as the dog has had a positive experience with them while it was young. Friends and relatives of the family are normally enthusiastically welcomed. Strangers can get no further than the sidewalk. The breed does well in competitive obedience, schutzhund, and tracking.
Height, Weight
Height: 24-27 inches (61-69 cm.) Bitches 22-25 inches (56-63 cm.)
Weight: Dogs 95-130 pounds (43-59 kg.) Bitches 85-115 pounds (38-52 kg.)

Well sounds like your doing a great job.
Just glad to hear you not one of the assholes that use them to fight to make money for your greedy selfish ass.
Speaking of, Rottweilers are illegal here. Too many times turning into what KingCobra described.

Brings back great memories of my Rottie when I was younger ( the cats used to curl and sleep on top of him on the chilly nights) He marked his terriorty all over this little mogrel puppy (thought the he was an Alpha male till he got peed on  )
BTW your watch braclet looks like an Omega is it? I can't see the watch face but the band is a ringer for the Omega SMP.
