The handsome, stately Doberman requires regular exercise. It is an intelligent animal, loyal to its master, and makes a superb guard dog. Heavily illustrated with vivid color photos and instructive line art, Barron's Complete Pet Owner's Manuals show and inform pet owners regarding proper care of dogs, cats, birds, fish, reptiles, amphibians, small caged animals--virtually every creature that is kept as a pet. The books give advice on purchasing and otherwise acquiring a pet, feeding it nutritiously, keeping it in good health, and where applicable, grooming and training it. Each book in this large series is individually written by a specialist, and though the information is authoritative, the text is clear and straightforward, easy for every pet owner to understand.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Great book for new Doberman owners,
By
This review is from: Doberman Pinschers (Barron's Complete Pet Owner's Manuals) (Paperback)
If you have or are planning on getting a Doberman puppy, this book should be required reading. It does not go too into depth on the subject of raising a Doberman as it is a subject that requires thousands of pages, but it does give you a great "first look" at raising a Doberman. If you have researched Dobermans excessively, this is not the book for you as it will not tell you anything new, but if you need a good introduction to caring for this noble breed it is a great read.

This review is from: Doberman Pinschers (Barron's Complete Pet Owner's Manuals) (Paperback)
I bought this book hoping to get some insight on my newly acquired Doberman. Instead, this manual is a cookie cutter listing of common sense items that everyone should know BEFORE they get any dog. It offered no information specific to the Doberman breed or it's unique personality or requirements. The author could easily replace the breed Doberman Pincher with Poodle or St Burnard. I thumbed through the book and was extremely disappointed. I ended up throwing it away because it was just taking up space.

First Sentence:
Every time we think of a Doberman, we see the sleek, gleaming coat, the hard, muscular physique, the ears alert to the most inaudible hint of intrusion, the dark, intelligent eyes, and of course, the snarl, the mad aggression, and the teeth.
