    Training a Jamthund To Be a Watch Dog

    Lots of people get a canine because they want more security around their homes. A guard dog, or a canine that will actually stop an intruder, normally takes unique breeding and training, but there are many dogs that are superb watch dogs.

    A watch dog merely informs their owner to somebody coming close to their house. Even though your pet dog isn't a police canine, most barking dogs will discourage an intruder even if they aren't large. Most guard dogs also make excellent watch dogs, but not all watch dogs make good 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 large, powerful dogs that will alarm their owners to suspicious activity and can make good guard dogs as well.

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

    3. Rottweiler - The Rottweiler is a huge German guard dog breed that is deeply loyal to its family but wary of strangers. Although, they are not a great choice for beginner canine 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 alert their owners to any uncommon activity. They are powerful dogs that are not well-suited for the rookie owner, but are almost unparalleled in their loyalty to their owners.

Jamthund Information

The Swedish Elkhound is a large, rectangular spitz breed, clean cut, strong, substantial and agile. It must not give the impression of having a long body or of being overly heavy in body, as it is a breed known for great endurance. Courageous and energetic, but also stoically calm.

As with most breeds developed for hunting, the Swedish Elkhound requires a lot of regular exercise to stay fit, both physically and mentally. It quickly becomes bored if kept indoors for too long and can become destructive.
