Dogs Breeds - Which Are Better For Watch Dogs
Special Report about Dogs Breeds By Kenneth Elliott
Dogs Breeds differ with different characteristics that are strong with each breed. For example, not all dogs are good for hunting. Not all dogs are good for home companionship. Likewise, not all dogs breeds are good for watch dogs. Did you know their is a difference between a watch dog and an guard dog? A watch dog will bark to alert the owners of an intruder. It is also an attempt to scare off intruders. This is were the usefulness of an watch dog stops. A guard dog will do the same as a watch dog and bark, but the guard dog will take it a little further. A guard dog might be trained to restrain or attack intruders. The guard dog is often large dog and strong enough to attack and drive away a predator. But, often times guard dogs are simply trained to restrain an intruder with his owner’s guidance. Be careful of your local laws as a guard dog could get you in trouble if it does attack someone.
If your looking for a guard dog here are three dogs breeds that I would recommend.
- Rottweilers - This dog started as just a farm dog but over the years of breeding they have developed into very strong guard dogs. Rottweilers are sometimes good around children so make sure they are well trained and acclimated to an environment for children.
- German Shepards - Very strong dogs breeds that has been breeded just for a guard dog role. Germain shepards are not for inexperienced owners and should not be around children.
- Doberman Pinscher - Another very strong dogs breeds. Doberman Pinschers were also breed just for the role of a guard dog. They are very aggressive and dominant of their surroundings. Once again this breed is not for inexperienced owners and should be handled with care.

As for watch dogs you have a lot of choices of dogs breeds. Here are 3 of my best choices for watch dogs.
- French bulldog - The French bulldog in not a great barker, but it will certainly alert the family to approaching people. A natural guardian, the Frenchie is devoted its master.
- Boston terrier - Small, muscular and compact, the Boston terrier is one of the few truly American dogs breeds. They are gentle, friendly dogs that are protective of family and home. Most have a good bark to alert people when strangers approach.
- Chihuahua - The Chihuahua is a small dog with a big bark. It will bark vigorously, as if they are trying to make up for being just 6 to 9 inches tall and weighing under 5 pounds. They make sure you know when someone’s approaching the house.
