A good enough "beginner" book, but that's all. August 17, 2006 Heather Wood (Berkeley, CA) 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
This book gives a synposized historic review of the AB's, talks a bit about the breeds characteristics and has some good pictures of some "famous" ABs, but most (I'd say 80%) of the book is dedicated to generic, overall dog care. It's a cookie-cutter book -- you could plug in any breed info. in the first few chapters -- and then market the book in the appropriate breed section. This is a decent enough introduction to the breed, but only that. It's not a terrible book, it's just not very good as a breed-specific reference. In fact, anyone seriously considering an AB isn't going to get enough out of this book about THIS breed to honestly help them out -- and this is a breed you need to know before you take one into your life! As noted by other reviewers, for those who really want some serious information on AB's, buy the Working American Bulldog, which is a GREAT book -- maybe the ONLY widely-available book that gives in-depth information about the breed's history, temperament and qualities.
Basic Dog Book April 4, 2006 Mary (NJ) 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
The first three chapters of this book talk about American Bulldogs, the fourth gets a little sketchy, Chapters 5 - 12 don't even mention the words American Bulldog; it's all generic "dog talk" after that. Not really what we were expecting since training, and working with, the breed is not quite the same as trying to train a peekapoo.
A poor excuse for a book January 31, 2006 S. R. ROBINSON (UK) 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
This is a poor book and I would not recommend it to anyone. Was not impressed at all.
Decent Read!!! April 15, 2005 A. Hemlepp (Boca Raton, Fl. USA) This book was a decent read for overall dog owners. I agree with several previous statements posted. It is not what I expected it to be in regards to the Breed (American Bulldog) itself. It does give some helpful insight on overall dog ownership. Mr. Blackwell owns some of the most impressive American Bulldogs ever bred. I am proud to say my American Bulldog has Blackwells' Blackeyed Susan in his foundation bloodline. Check out The Working American Bulldog. Now thats a peice of work.
