I have seen long haired rotties I heard they were mixed breed to.. But I know that they can't be red I even looked up to see and it says they have to be black and tan or as the one called it black and rust

Were you looking at the AKC standard? They screw everything up lol

Long coated purebred rotties DO occur. The coat isn't a full coat like a GSD or anything... but it's got some fluff to it.

I just looked into it, and purebred red rottweilers are rare and usually the result of HEAVY inbreeding to bring out a waaaay back, recessive trait... but they DO occur. The breed used to have a lot of colour variation, when working ability was more important than colour. But, of course, someone somewhere decided to narrow it down... A LOT. lol
