What type of dog?

[shotter]

Need a good guard dog.

I already got a 8month full rottweiler.
I need another dog.

Thinking along the lines of...

German shepard
Pitbull
Staff
Another rotty

Any suggestions please

Doberman. My friend has two, trained appropriately they are amazing companions as well as brilliant guard dogs.

This ^ and German Shepards are the obvious answer. Although judging by the way my dog reacts to the slightest noise of someone walking past our house, I wouldn't wanna be the dude that decides to break into ours .

Alaskan Malamutes are very good guard dogs imo & adorable

Berner Sennenhund.. Although they aren't exactly guard dogs :p

They are adorable, however it would be foolish to buy one as a guard dog. They were never bred for that purpose and although disciplined and hard working they do not have the right temperament to be a proper guard dog. I don't think we're talking something that will bark at passers by here, he's talking a dog you can train to a high standard to follow your every whim. Alaskan Malamutes are not this dog.

Pretty much the same applies above - especially seeing as the breed is bred to be docile and placid.

The Doberman is perfect, seriously. They're brilliant dogs. Very easily trained and they were originally bred for guarding the tax man! The only dog in this thread specifically bred for such a person. Even Rottweilers and German Sheperds were originally bred for herding.

I know it's a placid dog, I only suggested it cause it is Swiss !
