There are many reasons for wanting a watchdog: for personal protection, property protection, or simply to know when a visitor is at the door.

Watchdogs sometimes get a bad rap, when in reality, the traits that make them fierce guards are also those that make them very good pets.

 

According to the American Kennel Club, the best watchdogs are devoted, courageous, and know when to fight an intruder, but that doesn't mean they are aggressive in their daily lives. By providing puppy training, these pets will do everything they can to protect you. Just as important, you will feel safe and will offer you love and affection.

 

According to the Cesar’s Way portal, by the famous dog trainer Cesar Millán, these are some of the best guard dog breeds:

 

 

 

This breed is known for its physical strength, protective instincts, bravery, and extreme family loyalty. If an intruder crosses your path, a bullmastiff will often use its strength to knock you over or block your path. In addition, this breed is very docile in the family environment and makes a great companion animal.

If you have large property that you are trying to protect, a Doberman is a great watchdog for you. This breed is incredibly agile, fast, and capable of reaching an intruder in a short amount of time. Known as the fifth most intelligent breed of dog in the world, Dobermans are courageous, clever, and very loyal pets.

 

Rottweiler

 

 

Originally bred as a livestock guardian dog, Rottweilers are known to be the relentless protectors of their pack. They are an intelligent breed and extremely loyal to their owners. They are generally aloof with strangers until properly introduced to them. They are also very clever students.

Giant Schnauzers are powerful, dominant dogs that require strict training. This breed requires a lot of mental and physical stimulation, as well as demanding constant attention. They are powerful, intense, and intimidating those in front of them. Their extreme family loyalty makes them excellent guard dogs.

 

German shepherd

 

German Shepherds are bold and confident. They are extremely intelligent and quickly learn commands, making them one of the preferred breeds of the police. German Shepherds have a calm demeanor when in your home, but can react quickly when your family or property is threatened.
