There are people who feared the introduction of a second breed, then found that their Rottie loved the newcomer as greatly as they did.  Or vice-versa if they were already owners of some other type dog when the Rottweiler joined the family.  I have a friend whose household was being shared by Salukis, an Airedale, several assorted varieties of Dachshund and a Toy Poodle or two when she wanted a Rottie.   No problem - her Rottweiler puppy grew up thinking all of them just great, and shares the bed or sofas happily with all or several.  I have another friend who breeds Beagles and owns a Rottweiler bitch.  To see the Rottie and the Beagles rolling around on the floor playing together is delightful.

Still another fancier I know has spent the major portion of his lifetime with assorted terrier breeds.  After the Rottweiler also became a family member, he found out about this fascinating breed.  "This is the smartest dog we have ever owned, and the most perfect watchdog and guard possible.  Most protective of our family and property.  But also a dog that loves playing ball with us, sits up and begs like a ridiculous little dog.  His acts of intelligence are too many to enumerate.  He could never be replaced in our love".

Tow famous breeders of Basset Hounds are also Rottweiler owners and loyal enthusiasts.  I could go on indefinitely, for in all truthfulness I have never met a Rottie owner who was not enthusiastic over having acquired a member of this breed.
