Haha! Shes a he. I'm a guy.

I don't need a guard dog . And I dont necessarily need it to bark at an intruder. I just need it to somehow let me know of intruders, or people walking close to the tent when we sleep etc.

Almost any dog will at least get up and somehow let you know there is someone there........my mal runs up wagging his tail :rolleyes:

o sorry wolf.
See fran Im right, ur always correcting me.
But he also mentioned that he wanted a dog that would form more of a bond to him....not one that would just love everyone.

It's so hard to tell if the person is male or female on the computer....unless their name is something like...I'm a big guydoglover....or girlsrock...or something like that. :rolleyes: LOL

i no butgenerally any dog could be taught something simple like that. If he wanted a more guarding dog though he would have to go with a guard dog

Any dog can be taught to gaurd......or and Malamute's will protect the people in their packs, beleive me they will stand up to almost anything for you :D ........and I don't think fran was correcting you just for the heck of it. She was trying to make sure wolfdoggy got the right information.

So my most obvious choices are these. Alaskan Malamute, German Shepherd, And maybe Saarloos wolfhound, right? Are there any more breeds not mentioned here, that could be a good choice?

but actually i was giving the right info i said a golden would be good , fran said but they like everyone. i said yea but shes not really looking for a guard dog, just a dog for intruder. so i think i gave correct information. Also yes malamutes will stand up for you, he doesnt really care if it does or doesnt though:confused:
just never mind though, whatever :)

Here are some that would be perfect although they are somewhat rare. Also, no dog should be going off leash.

Chinook
East Siberian Laika
Greenland Dog
Leonberger
Native American Indian Dog
Samoyed
West Siberian Laika

I dont know any breeders in denmark, but I do know there are quite a few. here is a link to a kennel in belgium, this is where I got my male. you could have one shipped to you, or he will be happy to help you find a breeder closer to you, or even find a dog for you if you tell him what you want. his name is Rinus, to contact him click on "email", to see my dog click on "happy customers" we are the 4th customer down. to see his breeding stock click on "our dogs" and then click the dogs names. http://users.pandora.be/daelenberghutte/index2.htm
and keep in mind, the dogs are posing in those pictures. they dont normally have that stance of one leg behind the other. he had to place them in that pose, called a stack.

LEA there's no need to get upset, I wasn't attacking you. I was just telling you why people would correct you, and anyone else they thought was giving information that may be wrong or confusing. And being wrong isn't a bad thing anyways it's the only way to learn, not saying you were I'm just saying.

I was just saying that malamutes stand up for the people they love, just as a side note for him if he was going to look into one.

Wow, that sounds awesome stirder! Guess that will be the place to buy it if I choose a German Shepherd. Is it European shepherds or American?

Im still of the opinion that a gsd best meets your criteria.
I agree. A good GSD would be the best choice.


Also, Say "NO" to buying american bred GSD's. :p

deffinetly not an american bloodline. they cant hold their own butts off the ground, how would they carry a backpack??? besides hes in denmark so hes a lot more likely to get a german or czech bloodline dog. Id go with german working lines, german showlines, then czech in that order.

I have a friend in New Hampshire who is big into photography and hiking. She has a back pack for her Golden to carry her equipment/water etc. Always off leash , always with her. Her friend and companion. Yes, they would warn of intruders ,. But then, I'm partial. Second choice would be GS.
