Full Answer
Rottweilers typically gain 75 percent of their adult height by 6 months of age, coming to their full height between 1 and 2 years old. However, Rottweilers do not attain their full adult weight until they are at least 18 months old, and they sometimes still gain weight after reaching 2 years of age. Rottweiler puppies reach two-thirds of their adult weight by 6 months of age.
