Question: What kind of dog makes the best guard dog?
Answer: In the last few weeks I've gotten numerous emails from concerned people, asking "I want a guard dog, what kind should I get, and how do I train it?" Prompted by the rash of missing children lately, this question is getting more and more frequent.
What kind of dog makes the best guard dog?
Any dog that has a voice. That is it in a nutshell. If you want a guard dog, please go and adopt a dog from the Humane Society or your local animal shelter. The best guard dog is an alert watch dog. A dog who will bark when people enter your house is by far the best defense against unwanted intruders.
