Doberman Pinscher

Beyond their undeniably intimidating look, the Doberman Pinscher also has an excellent temperament for guarding.

They’re loyal, hyper-alert, and scared of nothing. All of the traits that make them an excellent guard dog have also given them a bad reputation as dangerous.

Owners should be diligent with training so that their pups only represent the breed’s best qualities when out in the neighborhood.
