Re: () guard dog?

We work with breeders of all types through our company

Cherrybrook.  As you know by now, there are many to choose from.  You

specifically indicated guard dog.  If you need a guard dog, then you should

look into the German Shepherd Dog.   That said, we have two beautiful gentle

Samoyeds who have turned out to be great for our family.  Our AS son has really

connected with the Sammys.  Of course they are more comfortable in colder

climates, so, climate should be considered.

Hi:

I'm going to have to disagree with you about the German Shepherd. Unless you are importing from Germany, hungary, the Czech Republic, etc, or using top working lines that have proven themselves in something other than Schutzhund, policework for example, I believe a better choice would be a Belgian Malinois. I'm still partial to Anatolians, because they don't have prey drive, but if you want a man stopper, most police departments and government agencies are now using the Malinois.

I come from 20 years experience as a breeder and trainer of GSDs, Dobes, and Mals. I also have fifteen years experience as a trainer for the military, customs and police departments around my area. Of course, YMMV.
