While there are many dog breeds that were originally created to serve as personal protectors and guardian dogs, some are better at this job than others. Many breeds have changed over the years and the variety of breeds used as guard dogs has dwindled. Some people only need to have a dog that will bark and look intimidating, while others are looking for a dog that will bite should the scenario ever arise. Here we’ve listed the best of these breeds for both situations.
If you’re looking for a good guard dog, look no further than these 10 breeds. Of course, some may need training to really do the job, but many are biologically equipped to protect.
