I kinda need suggestions of a suitable breed that will do well as a guard dog and a house companion. I also have a cat and I will need the dog to get along with him as well. Considered Rhodesian Ridgebacks but they are pretty hard to find....
Would apprieciate comments/suggestions....or if anyone has pups...

Hi,
When you mentioned about guard dog ? do you mean you want something that will bite on command if the situation call for it ? or a watch dog that will bark and act like the first like of deterant to the crooks ?

Generally a WORKING GSD will fit in all category but i'm biased here

Hi Boon,
Thanks for the suggestion. Im not so keen with GSD's due to their health problems (heart mainly). And my mum isn't too keen for a furry dog, as we intend to let him in the house once in awhile....thats why I was looking around for big dogs with very short fur.

Mind to enlightent what do you mean by GSD tend to have heart problem ? I mean working GSD not those that you see in the show ring only know how to run in circle

Haha. Any suggestions for a medium-sized watch dog? One with the instinct to look after its territory and scary enough to deter would be intruders with its bark, but not as big as the GSD.
