This book deserves no stars.June 19, 2002 Lucy McNamara(USA) 4 out of 6 found this review helpful
Puleese! Even a novice dog owner can discern purely rediculous rot from reality. Tie a string around the bowl? Slosh the dog with ice water? Throw a heavy collar in it's face? The only thing positive or closely resembling any helpful information is the photos. At least now we know what a Rottweiler looks like!
A big pile of Rottweiler P--p!June 18, 2002 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
What a travesty! The advice given in this book is nothing short of ROTTen! These dogs are not to blame for every bad incident you hear about...It's the owners!! and bad breeders..Puh--leeeeze...Do not buy this book in order to get a fair picture of the Rottie..Buy it only if you want to laugh at it's absurdity....
Sorry I couldn't give it NO stars!!June 17, 2002 Neal Elkind(California) 0 out of 2 found this review helpful
What an antiquated piece of poop if I ever seen one! Throwing water in you Rott's face to make him back off the food that was just given to him??? Then sneak in and take his bowl away. If he won't bite you, I WILL! How's about something modern and positive like HAND FEEDING a food-protective dog so he learns where his dinner comes from (YOU the fair and firm MASTER)one kibble at a time? What a great bonding idea! Thank God I read Carol Benjamin and Ian Dunbar...or my Rott could have become one of the tortured beasts in this sadistic book. BTW, my 6 year old female Rott is an Advanced Certified Therapy dog and works with severly handicapped kids. I think I did "okay" raising her. NO? I'm too disgusted to write any more.
Abuse... book of little useJune 17, 2002 DebraDownSth(GA United States) 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
I find this APPALLING and abusive. Whatever good is in the book is overshadowed by garbage like this: >>A check chain used in this manner gives the dog a shock and it should be accompanied by a tirade of abuse from you. You must be prepared to be hard on your dog for unwarranted aggression. <<
One of the best Rottweiler breed bookAugust 1, 2001 HS Rottie(Izm) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
One of the best rottweiler breed book I have ever read over a few rottweiler books. The book provides interesting information about the breed history and also helpful information on the breed character, health care and training. The information on the breed character is a must to read for new rottweiler owners. The information is based on years of live experience that's one of the major reasons makes the book more valuable. I found many analogies between the information and my rotties behaviours. From a visual perspective the book also contains awesome photos that make people love rottweilers even more. I congratulate Ms Blackmore for this very valuable and helpful book.
