Dog breed list

Guard dog breeds

Dogs with a strong guarding instinct are mostly herding and molosser breeds that protected flocks and farms for centuries. They need early socialisation, consistent training and an owner who can handle a dog that weighs as much as an adult person. In Poland, several of them are on the list of breeds considered aggressive.

41 breeds. Breeds with a protectiveness score of 5 out of 5.

A guard dog is not an alarm system. Without the right upbringing it becomes a danger to its family and neighbours.
