Well actually my problem is theft...... it hasnt happened with me yet ALHAMDULILLAH but my neighbors lost a pair of sheep few months back. They have dogs too..... but they are stray dogs and are not trained properly. The watchman was asleep at night when it happened.
I basically need a watchdog.... not a guard dog........ watchdog simply alerts about the threat whereas a guard dog not just alerts but if sees barking isnt helping he will attack........ I do not want to train the dog to bite........ no matter how small the breed is...a dog can do a alot of damage....... guard dogs are like loaded guns........ an accident waiting to happen. Im not paranoid...... im just looking for an easy way out....... buying a formidable structure dog and hoping the intruder steps back seeing a large toothy monster barking..... what he wont know...... the dog wont bite
Thats why Im looking for a menacing breed...... all show .....no go....... for that reason I just might exchange the labs.......
Even though im not inclined towards long fur breeds but what do you say about this...... a German Shepard X Saint Bernard cross. Owner says father is pedigree GSD and mother was Saint Bernard (died)..... he too is willing to exchange the lab for this beauty........ only problem is....... its a female.
