Erm...i think No

cos i would always see the appearance more than the breed. If the dog looks cute and behave good....either mongrel or pure breed also i wont mind.

previously i dreamt of getting a GSD but later i found out that its hard to train and i don't think i'm eligible for that breed.

now, i still like large breed dog, with short fur like a labrador.

Yes & No.

Yes for my Scout (Labrador Retriever), because large breed, friendly, loyal, active, very handsome face :D, short fur, nice character/temperatment...

No because if you give me any dog, i will definitly fall in love with them! I have had 2 mongrels & 2 mix breed dogs... and now my sister (living together) currently has 1 mix breed (Pom-x).

All of them are the love of my life... eheheh...

Yes and no.

Depending what I want the dog for. If i want a protection dog i can't get a mixed breed the size of a JRT (though i do not rule out mixed breeds for pp work). I also want a more predicatable dog for smth as serious as protection work.

If i want the dog as a pet,then no...as long i like how he is.Smile

Re: [RealityDreamer] Do you choose your pets based on their breed and why? [In reply to] Can't Post
That is what worries me a lot in Malaysia. Anybody can have any breed of dog, no matter if he knows how to care for, how to train or how to handle that breed.

That some breeds got a bad name here is basically caused by that ignorance and negligence to the breed’s special need.

In my opinion, guard-dog could be any breed. They give you the message that a stranger is coming to your house and you have time enough to call for help. I call that the natural burglar alarm.

PP dogs in Malaysia?
I have seen fully trained dogs (no leash or yelling required) in SchH3 classes, nothing like this ever seen in Malaysia.

In Europe, they tried giant breed dogs as well and it was getting extremely dangerous. Can you imagine a dog of 70 Kg is taking on the “intruder”? The guy must be out of his mind or suicidal to play this role.

Re: [JoeSmith] Do you choose your pets based on their breed and why? [In reply to] Can't Post
Hi, I can see your point. Malaysian buys dogs because they are "CUTE" and that is all. The buyer has no incling what particular breed instints are and when they loose grip or unable to control, the neighbourhood goes up in arms and the breed is condemmned. As you have said, all dogs are good guard dogs all they need is the owner to nurture whatever the owner wants out of the dog, in short train it.

An example of how and what people say to show their ignorance about breeds, the last puppy.com gathering at Taman Tun, as I was working my dog, actually on the way home walking out, a family was coming in with their Afgan and I heard one of the family members commented on my dog saying "Take care that is a killer dog", mind you I was walking her off leash at perfect heel and when we walk pass, my dog did not even look at their dog whereby theirs was pulling trying to get near us. The crunch is my dog is a Weimeraner, not sure which book that person read that say that the breed is a killer breed. Hmmmm, wonder what would have happen if I brought my Dob, probably got the army out to shoot it.

Thanks for the funny story. I was laughing so loud that half the neighborhood came asking.

I tried to imagine the picture when you were walking your Weimaraner in a relaxed heel position and passing by the untrained Afghan dog.

I doubt that this people ever read a book about the Weimaraner dog and I am not so sure if they are able and/or interested to read in the first place.

My experience with walking my dog in public is matching to your story.

Once, I was “advised” not to walk a bear in town (Bangsar) and another time people started screaming to each other to see the Lion. I was wondering if people have really such problem with their eyesight or if they all missed bio classes in school.

Luckily, most people are very friendly. One time, we met a very friendly police force. They did admire my dog and showed us a restaurant that tolerates dogs, really great guys.

Hi,

Am glad u mentioned SchH as I am a fan of the sport. Yes,we do hv SchH here but it is still a small group. Can come & join us if u want.

"In my opinion, guard-dog could be any breed. They give you the message that a stranger is coming to your house and you have time enough to call for help. I call that the natural burglar alarm."

Aah...I agree. If u want an alarm system,then any breed would do as long it's alert.

lol...doesn't need to be in Europe. Check out the pic. Wink It's frm ur home ground (US if i'm not mistaken right?)

Well,he may not be 70kgs,but he's close.

Re: [PSY,JoeSmith] Do you choose your pets based on their breed and why? [In reply to] Can't Post
IMHO, I cannot blame the owner for reacting that way because it's only natural. She doesn't know u or ur dog.

She's worried about her dog as well "lighting" up ur dog because as lovely as our dogs are,they may be unpredictable. Honestly,*if* for some reason a golden retriever(for example),stronger than man was determined to bring a man down,wht's going to stop him? If it was a cocker spaniel u could just kick & he would fly to kingdom come.

I think any dog,regardless of history, as long as he is stronger than a man or can inflict serious damage,should be handled with care.

As for the killer dog comment,well,weimers are not common in M'sia & most ppl do not have the time to read up on other breeds that they are not interested in/own. I mean..so many already don't educate themselves about the breed that they themselves want to get...

Had a lady yelling at me just the other day," What is wrong with u?! Are u blind?! This is a public place! U can't take ur dog out here!" ....all this while Hazel's chest touching my knee and she was at least 5 ft away frm me.

Haha, should I be more impressed about the strength of the table or the “fierce” look of a puppy?

I have seen that people really react extremely strange, when seeing a dog (however, never seen jumping on the table) – no matter how the dog is moving, sitting or its size.

We were regular guests in Bangsar’s pubs and many people were close to a heart attack when my dog suddenly raised his head. She just showed her typical relaxed “Leo”-smile. I wondered what would happen, when she would growl or bark at them.

Thanks for the invitation to the SchH classes.
I said before that I would not train any dog heavier then men for this. In my experience, it is part of the game, that you will be bitten by a dog during the training (at least at one occasion from one of the trainees) and if this happen to be a giant breed dog …. You will need more then an angel to survive that.
Furthermore, when a dog of this size is jumping on you and biting into your sleeve, then the jump and the force of this bite might cause injury already. I have seen a “flying” intruder. The dog did throw around the guy like a small tag-o-war toy.

By the way, I am a European – nothing much in common with Americans.

Aah...sorry. My apologies,thought u were frm the US.

Oh yes...it's scary. 80lbs shepherds r strong enuf. Imagine a 150lbs one Crazy Some of them can bruise ur arm through the sleeve....n tht's a 80lb dog.

It's even worst when some1 gets their dog pp trained & then does not noe how to control the dog or is afraid to.

I have seen some demo shows here in Malaysia with so called fully trained dogs and was not impressed at all. The dog was not controllable, just the very strong owner did hold him back on the collar and was yelling his commands.

I have no idea what sort of SchH training is provided but the shown result is not what it supposed to be.

The sad part is that with untrained or wrongly trained dogs around, the ban of dogs will continue, instead of banning bad people from owning such dogs.



>>>Oh yes...it's scary. 80lbs shepherds r strong enuf. Imagine a 150lbs one<<<I had a guest who played play tug-o-war with my dog and nearly dislodged his shoulder when my dog did the “kill”. Since then, just patting allowed for selected guests and under supervision from me. Otherwise, they might ban this breed here as well.

lol...tht is unfortunately malaysia's perception of a "protection dog". An uncontrollable nervous dog that growls and lunges at ppl. They want a that would go mad & put on a show.

I am not sure abt that training group either but tht is certainly not us as we have not done any demos.

"The sad part is that with untrained or wrongly trained dogs around, the ban of dogs will continue, instead of banning bad people from owning such dogs." Agreed.

Don’t want to put the name up here but you can find his advertisement in any animal magazine. A sure “stay away” for me.



My father had a mastiff who could take out any men without scratching him and holding him to the ground until my dad gave the release command. No leash, no yelling and doing it when he was “on duty” only. Never attacked any of our guests or anyone of my playmates. I used the dog to pull my sledge and I was just 6 years old.

That is what I would call a properly trained pp dog.However, the training was a little tricky (as my father told) since the dog could damage a lot more then the sleeve during training.

Yes, it was a great dog. As I said, I was just 6 years old and can’t remember anything else then playing with the dog. I guess that the dog was from Germany, but have no clue from which kennel.



To train that, you have to start from very early age, so that you can use the greeting jump from your puppy to put a command to it and later work from there.

It needs a lot of love & patience and a very consistent approach. You will need some athletic intruders who are nuts enough to take all the nonsense from this trainee. You will need the full body suit including headgear to ensure some sort of safety for them.

Good Luck.

Sly Sly Sly That is the way how it might be.

People ask a lot of questions, but will not look at me. Sometimes, I thought that they think that I am an automatic answering machine, which is attached to the dog for their convenience. Had to get used to it. Laugh

Also very interesting what they think about that big animal – “harimau?”. Learned later that this not meant dog. Smile

When I told them that it is a "Lean-on-berger" then they were lost. Police asked me, if I hold a special license for that … (mmhhmm, what is it?).Get prepared for some funny stories while walking around with giant breed dogs.

That is one of my worries. Trained her not to take food from others. Besides that, she is a real bodyguard and would not let me out of sight. It also helps that most people are scared of her, especially, when she stares at them. Hope it stays this way and we can escape the threat.She gives a lot of joy and happiness for the little she gets from us.

Re: [RealityDreamer] Do you choose your pets based on their breed and why? [In reply to] Can't Post
That is a long story. Briefly, you have to do the normal obedience training anyway. Then you use the puppy jump and put a command on it. You use the tug-o-war game to get its killing instinct and put a command on it. You train to hold (with any toy and later food) and put a command to it. You train to eat on command as well.

When he is old enough for SchH training then you start combining all of this to hunt down your intruder by using the combined command for chase & jump. That will not take to long, because it is fun for the dog. When done perfect and reliable then add-on the hold command. It will take a while, since he is to strong and might start the kill. That is the reason why you have to train a command word first, so that you can put a stop to it. Of course also needed to advise him to do in the event that the intruder is fighting back.

My father also trained to bite on command. That is very danger but extremely effective against a group of intruders.

You have to watch your dog all the time. Never accept anything done half way or incorrect. The mastiff is a little lazy and will try to outsmart you. You need to do training sessions daily for the rest of his life. Training sessions might start with 5 minutes and increase the time when you see that the dog can take it to up to 30 minutes. Just make sure that all sessions will end with one successful completion. If you need then use an old command to ensure that the finish is really a success. That is important for the confidence of your dog. He has to get the point that he is smart and can always make it right.

Hope you could understand the method. There are some books about it in the market, but I am not sure if you could find them in Malaysia.Good Luck.

OK, will contact my friends in Germany, but it will take a while and the books are in German only.

I have seen one book at MPH (megamall) called “Schutzhundtraining”. I did not check the content but it might have something in it for you.

That is the beauty of this bookshop; you can really check out the book, even sit down and read.So, for the meantime, have some fun.
