    Training a Perro de Presa Mallorquin To Be a Watch Dog

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

    A watch dog simply alerts their owner to someone approaching their property. Even though your pet dog isn't a police dog, most barking dogs will deter an intruder even if they aren't big. Most guard dogs also make wonderful 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 doubtful activity and can make excellent guard dogs as well.

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

    4. German Shepherd - They are outstanding guard dogs that will alert 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 strong dogs that are not well-suited for the newbie owner, but are almost unparalleled in their loyalty to their owners.
