my husband works night shifts ALOT and I get paranoid in our house, our bedroom is way in the back and you can't hear anything happening up front and I wanted to get a dog who would bark or alert me if they heard something strange.
@perryamandam: This may seem strange, but you need a great Pyrenees.
I know, they are big.But they are great guard dogs, with a healthy bark.Plus they need moderate exercise, and are happy sitting around the home as they are walking or playing.They are great with the family pack.My wife is way more comfortable now we have one.At night she sleeps center of the house to guard all the bedrooms and hear the doors.Yes sometimes she does wake us at night with a bark or 3 or 4. But not too often. 4951
