Very useful!!!March 19, 2006 Kimberly Millspaugh(Philadelphia, PA) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I will keep this short. Having never been a rott owner this book has taught me alot. Very educational about rottweiler's. The book is detailed in most areas from breeding to late adulthood.
Must buy for first time rott purchase.
not all that informativeMarch 17, 2006 blackmamba I didn't learn anything more from this book than what I learned from my dog trainer. Don't buy this is if you are looking for something more advanced.
A MUST!April 9, 2003 TIFFANY LEIZEAR(Pasadena, Maryland United States) 6 out of 8 found this review helpful
I BOUGHT THIS BOOK BECAUSE I HAVE NEVER HAD A DOG BEFORE AND RECENTLY PURCHASED A ROTTIE. THIS BOOK IS SO HELPFUL. THERE ARE ALOT OF THINGS I DID NOT KNOW BUT THIS BOOK EXPLAINS ALOT ABOUT THE BREED. THE ONE THING I LIKED ABOUT THE BOOK IS IT ALL ABOUT ONE BREED AND NOT ABOUT THE DOG FAMILY.
Rottweilers and a Respect for the Breed!February 13, 2002 psifur 13 out of 13 found this review helpful
I never realized prior to now the sheer importance of proper care and training of a Rottweiler until reading this book. This book should be required reading for anyone considering raising a Rottweiler or who currently owns one. I actually felt myself doubting whether I can provide the necessary attention and fortitude that this breed requires. I have always loved this breed and the book precisely specifies why it should be loved and why the task of raising one should not be taken lightly. Every consideration for the Rottweiler is mentioned in this book, from purchasing to care and nutrition, to behavior and training. I thoroughly recommend this book for anyone considering purchasing a Rottweiler or if you currently own one.
Great foundation!!July 16, 2001 Thomas Buckner(Yreka, CA USA) 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
I was given a full-blooded bitch and did not really know alot about Rottweillers except for the preconceived notions of their viciousness. With smaller kids at home I was a little worried. But after reading this book and discovcering what a wonderful breed these dogs are, I am no longer worried and our puppy is doing awesome and I am learning alot every day. The book has great information about the Rottweiller breed and what to expect as well as great advice and techniques for training. Nicely written.
