Very useful!!!

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.

Rottweilers and a Respect for the Breed!

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!!

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.

Lots of useful practical information; clear and concise

This book is organized as a practical handbook (owners manual) for the rottweiler breed. It includes lots of factual information on how to handle and train such large dogs from a practical standpoint. I have reviewed several books on the topic of rottweilers and this one is by far the best of all.

A great book for the person who is about to purchase a Rott!

If you are thinking of buying a Rottweiler, this book will help you decide if a Rottweiler is right for you. It will give you instructions that are easy to understand and wealth of knowledge, from care to understanding your Rottweiler through the puppy stage to adult. Being an owner of this fine breed and with the help of this book, I have turned my little bundle of joy into a fine friend and companion. It is well worth a read.
