Rotador
You should use this page, not your user page for discussion - it's hard to find conversations if they're not on the talk page. Also, please sign your comments with four tildes ~ - the software will place your username and a timestamp for you.

Out of curiosity, what breed and parentage do these papers list for your dog? The AKC's purpose is to discourage crossing or mixing breeds (hence "purebred"), and simply won't issue "papers" for anything called a "rotador". Here's the AKC list of recognized breeds.

By the way, when contributing to Wikipedia, you need to provide outside sources. The article as written is essentially about your dog, which is original research. Some verifiable references are vital for any article, but in this case Google searches under rotador just pick up rotators in Spanish.

Please don't mistake skepticism of the article for criticism of your dog. I'm quite certain that your dog is wonderful - all dogs are. I've had mutts/crosses of all kinds (golden/lab, pit bull/lab) and purebred dogs, and they're all great. However, I've also shown dogs at AKC shows, and I can assure you that if I showed up at a show with a Lab-Rottie cross (which can't happen because I couldn't register such a dog with the AKC and thus wouldn't get in the door), the retriever people and the Rottie people would lynch me.
