Choosing The Right Dog To Protect Your Home

Theres a lot to consider if youre thinking about a dog as part of your home security plan including what you want your dog to do. That's why it is important to understand the different variations of security dogs that are out there, before selecting one to protect your home and your family.

Watch dogs these four-legged burglar alarms can be any size or breed. As soon as they hear a noise, they go to the spot and bark, alerting you that something is amiss. The bigger the bark, the scarier the dog but even a tiny yapper will make a burglar think twice and head to a house without a dog.

Protection dogs these dogs have had advanced obedience training and will bark and lunge at an intruder or aggressor but will not actually bite unless it senses you are in imminent danger. Their training is focused on deterring the aggressor, not attacking. A well-trained protection dog will also serve as a watchdog, barking at the first sign of trouble.

Attack dogs biting is an attack dogs job. They have been trained to bite aggressively on their masters command or when their master is assaulted. They will let go only when instructed by its master or if the attacker ceases to present a threat.

Guard dogs dont even consider it. These dogs are trained to kill and represent a danger to everyone in their path. Dont let anyone sell you a trained guard dog.

Electronic dogs this could be the perfect pet for people who dont want or cant have a dog. An electronic alarm system barks when an intruder approaches the house. Even burglars who suspect an electronic dog wont chance it, particularly if you place a Beware of Dog sign on your property. There are no vet bills and no food to buy, but an electronic dog wont wag its tail when you come home.
