Product Description
A noble working dog, guardian and companion, the Rottweiler has fast become one of the worlds most recognizable dogs, well regarded for his powerful physique and black and tan coloration. Originating in Germany, the breed sparkles with talent, strength and intelligence, making the Rottweiler an international favorite as a protector of family, home and property. This book provides the much-needed factual information about Rottweilers and their ancestry, character and standard, as well as the proper selection, feeding, training, preventative health care and behavior of the breed. The new owner will welcome advice about puppy-proofing the home, preparing for the pups arrival, housebreaking and preventing puppy problems. In addition to an authoritative, comprehensive text, this book presents over 135 photographs in full color, which prove to be as informative as they are attractive. Helpful hints and important information are highlighted to provide easy access to everything the reader needs to know about life with a Rottweiler from puppyhood to the senior years.

 Fairly decent but too much basic training info not enough breed info January 26, 2009
Adrian Cote (Houston, TX)
The book is just ok. It is well written and the information is clear and concise.
However, I was dissapointed that most of the book was devoted to basic training and care that is generic from one breed to another. There was only maybe 25% of the book devoted to Rottweilers specifically. The rest was basic information related to dogs in general which can be found in much better books elsewhere.
 Great resource for future Rottie owners February 5, 2008

A great book for anyone who wants to understand more about Rotties but doesn't want to have to look at a dictionary to understand every other word. This book covers their history, their temperment and behaviors, how to care for your Rottie, and how to train your Rottie the simple commands. The training segment is the most informative. It walks you through how to crate train and how to give commands and even provides step by step pictures.
