1. BullmastiffThis breed is known for its physical strength, protection instincts, courageousness, and extreme family loyalty. 2. Doberman PinscherA Doberman Pinscher is a great guard dog for you and has historically always been so.3. RottweilerRottweilers are known to be relentless protectors of their Pack.  And once you are in their “Pack” then you’re in for life.4. KomodorThe Komodor possesses a natural guard dog ability because of their original use.  That was to protect cattle way back in the day.5. PuliPulis are known for their distinct coats of hair.  However, they’re also known to be a suspicious breed.   They are always alert and will bark to alert their owners of anything out of the ordinary.6. Giant SchnauzerThese are dogs that  require strict training.  They need constant attention and need to know who is in charge otherwise they might take over.7. German ShepherdGerman Shepherds are one of the most popular guard dogs around.  It’s simply because they are fearless.   In addition, they are extremely intelligent and easily trained.8. Rhodesian RidgebackJust one look at this beautiful dog and you can see why it’s a guard dog.  Very strong and definitely imposing. Ridgebacks are loyal and make natural watchdogs.9. KuvaszThis breed is very territorial and has a strong instinct to guard its family and home. The Kuvasz tends to be aloof with strangers but craves affection from its family.10. Staffordshire TerrierOften confused with the American Pit Bull Terrier, the Staffordshire Terrier was bred for bear and bull fighting.  That alone make them pretty tough.Staffordshire Terriers make great household pets, known to only be aggressive when protecting a family member.11. AkitaIf you’re looking for a guard dog that doubles as a nanny, an Akita may be the perfect pet for you. This large breed has strong protective instincts and will immediately investigate any hint of an intrusion into his family home.12. Great DaneIf you’re in the market for a family guard dog that looks like a fierce predator but acts like a gentle giant, look no further than the Great Dane.13. Great PyreneesThe Pyrenees is a gentle breed that is both loyal and protective without being overbearing. They are smart dogs that will understand the dynamic of the home, while being very wary of guests and intruders. If well trained, the Great Pyrenees would be a great addition to any family as both a companion and guard dog. He is a guard dog by instinct, not by training. 4951

We had a Staffordshire terrier, #10, Butch. AWESOME, AWESOME dog. We want another but every "Staffy" I find is actually a pit bull... they are hard to find. At least for me! We would love another one! 4951

The best dog I ever had was an Akita.  I found him on "death row" at the pound.  He looked like a black wolf.  He came bounding to me in the visiting area and it was love at first sight.That said, I have mainly owned shepherd mixes and they are awesome.  I wouldn't trade the two I have right now for anything. 4951
