That doesn't surprise  me ?, I've met few people with pure gsds and they had quite easy going Temps, just like Buck my 1x gsdxgrey he prob dafter her than them anyway .lol I know  from reading about different  guard breeds  that a rotie  as  more powerful  jaw and geneal power than any gsd And most rotties make great guards.don't  know what there Temps are like I think there more of a domisn't temp than gsdxgrey so more of a challenge  to train. The only problem with them iso HD bad hips just like gsd but if they could also healthy rottie and fit they make great cop dog , and prob the Dutch shepherd  be a good chose  if they were bit bigger. But I've been very lucky with Buck he daft with people and dogs  but switches on when hunting.  I had a kelpiexcolliexgrey bitch that was vicious twat with people and dogs  had to muzzle it when out bloody nightmare only 50 lb but very strong animal,I hate it if Buck had that kind of temp he be  hell to take out with his size and power.

I posted some pics of my Boerboel pup earlier in the thread when she was a few months and 6 months. 

Now she is 15 months old and turned into a great dog. Bombproof with my horses and goats and is a great natural guard. The power of her is unbelievable. 

I started personal protection training with her also and she is showing great enthusiasm for manwwork. I take her twice weekly to an IPO trainer. She weighs around 70ish kg but lean with it I think. Very agile and fast for a dog her size.

very nice that mate, my mate bitch is about  2  1/2 now, last time i seen her she looked like your bitch, think she 24in and has heavy as your bitch, very powerful animal, the males are lot bigger  , but   bloody hell  she stop any man in his tracks, there great guard breed to guard your house deff , better than bullmastiff  far more healthily  dog , and  more switched on temp regard guarding from what ive seen of her .

Interesting topic this, with some great looking guard dogs.

Anyone own a lurcher that acts a good guard dog as well.

From what I have seen, imo,  if it's to be around your family, a well bred gsd is hard to beat.

Woman round my village walks one of those Boerboels, it's in good shape but must weigh as much as her, so no idea how she'd stop it if it decided someone was a threat.

I like the look of all the dogs in this topic and "like the idea" of having one, but it would 100% be too much for me and I've got nothing worth stealing anyway. I'd just be worried it would be a time bomb waiting to go off all the time. Think I'll stick to a yappy terrier lol.
