Book Description

Comprehensive Owner's Guide September 1, 2003
Meet the American Pit Bull Terrier, one of the world’s most popular, powerful and versatile pure-bred dogs. Given the great popularity of American Pit Bull Terriers and the amount of false information available, this book provides the much-needed factual information about the biddable and intelligent American Pit Bull Terrier and its 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 pup’s 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 an American Pit Bull Terrier from puppyhood to the senior years.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nice book, September 12, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: American Pit Bull Terrier: A Comprehensive Guide to Owning and Caring for Your Dog (Comprehensive Owner's Guide) (Hardcover)
I really enjoyed this book. Great pictures and good information about the pit bull. I have had six pit bulls over my adult life and everyone has been a wonderful dog. If its a bad dog, you can usually trace the "root cause" back to a bad owner. I got this book for my sister, who has two outlaw pit bull puppies, but she has come to realize they are a product of their upbringing and she is working to create a more stable environment for them. Well written book and great graphs.
