Can Mountain Feists Be A Watch Dog?

This dog is not recommended to be a watchdog.

Training a Mountain Feist To Be a Watch Dog

A lot of people get a pet dog because they want more security around their houses. A guard dog, or a pet dog that will really stop an intruder, usually takes special breeding and training, but there are many dogs that are exceptional watch dogs.

A watch dog simply alarms their owner to someone coming close to their home. Even if your pet dog isn't a police canine, most barking dogs will discourage an intruder even if they aren't big. Most guard dogs also make fantastic watch dogs, but not all watch dogs make great guard dogs.



Top 5 Best Guard Dogs

1. Doberman Pinscher - The Doberman Pinscher is German breed initially used for safeguarding, police and military work. They are big, powerful dogs that will alert their owners to suspicious activity and can make very good guard dogs as well.

2. Cairn Terrier - Although little, the Cairn Terrier is mighty. They are strong-willed, feisty little terriers that are quite watchful of their surroundings and will notify their owners to any novel activity in no time. Due to this, they make excellent watch dogs.

3. Rottweiler - The Rottweiler is a big German guard dog breed that is deeply loyal to its family but wary of strangers. However, they are not a great choice for beginner pet dog owners.

4. German Shepherd - They are excellent guard dogs that will inform their owners of any strangers just a little too close to their homes.

5. Akita - They will quickly alarm their owners to any unusual activity. They are powerful dogs that are not well-suited for the newbie owner, but are almost unparalleled in their loyalty to their owners.
