Product Description This sturdy, strong-willed but very loyal dog requires careful training and socializing from the time he is a puppy so that he does not develop aggressive behavior traits. The titles in Barrons Complete Pet Owners Manuals series make great introductions to the pleasures and duties of pet ownership for inexperienced and soon-to-be pet owners, as well as for older children having their first experiences with pet care. Attractively illustrated and filled with helpful information, these books advise on purchasing, housing, feeding, health care--and where applicable, grooming and training pets. Each book is individually written by an expert--a trainer, breeder, veterinarian, or other animal specialist. Barrons Complete Pet Owners Manuals cover every popular dog and cat breed, as well as bird varieties, hamsters and other small caged animals, fish varieties for aquarium hobbyists, terrarium pets, and even exotics, such as reptiles, amphibians, and scorpions. All books have 70 or more color photos plus instructive line illustrations.

Great book. July 7, 2009 Gluteus Maximus (SoCal) The book is great with a lot of information regarding the rottweiler. I had purchased other books but were of a general purpose. I wanted something more specific for the breed. There are a lot of useful ideas. A lot of the info is on the internet but this books has it all compiled for easy reference.
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 informative March 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 14 out of 14 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.
