@@BDTraining gracias. I felt especially proud of 58:45 but that's one of the ones you've gotta play the game after reading and then go listen to what you guys actually talked about to catch. I know it's a lengthy set this week. I got to make fun of myself too for once so that was a good addition too!
I think most only need a dog as a deterrent. This is specifically why I got a doberman. Big bark, intimidating, and crazy alert. He makes eye contact with everyone which takes away their ability to surprise me. That's the biggest deterrent is eye contact. No sound or person goes unnoticed by my dobie. He does a good job of giving off that "vibe" (people will cross the street sometimes) and he's good at convincing people he's badder than they are.
You EEUU guys have a serious problem in your society if you have to rely on a dog for protection. As European I really cannot wrap my mind about that. I feel safe at all times. My dog perfectly understand I am the one that protects him so he doen't need to risk doing a bad choice that end up in damaging his integrity or even his life just for defending me or my family. That's really a really difficult choice no animal is capable to sensibily take in a human society. There is no really need for it. You guys better consider the type of society you have been building and where you went wrong if you need to task an animal with something you should be responsible of.
I’m in Utah and recently learned that the way our law is written, if your dog bites someone who is trespassing on your property or intruding in your home than you’re still accountable for that and can get sued. There is zero protection. You can shoot the guy in your house, but your dog cannot bite them. Make that make sense. I just wrote my legislatures to see if they’ll do anything about it cause one of the reasons I have a dog is help protect my family and home. At least until I can grab a firearm. Oh and putting a ‘beware of dog’ sign up doesn’t protect you, it actually implies guilt because you’re admitting your dog is dangerous. It’s so twisted.
I thin most states are simular to yours. A lawyer told me once that the best way to protect yourself from being sued for your dog biting an intruder is to post signs saying that the owner is not responsible for any injury, illness, damage to personal property or death that occurs on the property. He told me that it depends on the judge whether or not it helps. He also said do not put up any kind of beware of dog or beware of owner or any other kind of threatening signs.
I’ve heard Rhodesian Ridgebacks are best because of their INTENSE bark and if an intruder is in the house they will corner them and hold them there til back up arrives (you with your gun) - much like how they were bred to hunt lions in Africa. They are fearless and highly protective
RR are not good guard dogs. Generally you dont want a hunting type dog as a guard dog. Live stock guardians have the most suitable mindset for guarding. The ultimate guard dogs are the 2 azorean cattle dog breeds. Old world dogs.
I have had 6 Boxers over 30 years and always felt safe. On a few occasions where I was startled, they turned on a dime to protective mode. If I am okay with a person, then they are friendly goofy selves. Even if I just think negativity about a person, they would become highly alert. We traveled the world with our Boxers we lived in Europe for 4 years and Asia for 4 years. I felt so safe when my husband traveled for work. Our last Boxer passed away 1.5 years ago. We just moved back to the US in February. My neighborhood is very safe. I live in Texas and we also have guns. I am going to get our 7th Boxer in July from Louisiana Boxer Rescue. I feel lost without them. I don’t think I could handle a more powerful breed.
I had a 75-80 lb Cattle dog mix with the greatest temperament naturally but if you didn't know him and didn't belong in the yard or house and just walked up he stopped you before you got too close. It was pre-installed from the factory. That was my "Prince or Boscoe" dog. RIP Frankie.
Best personal protection dog I ever had was GSD/Rhodesian Ridgeback mix. Best property protection dogs I ever owned were GSD/Pittie mix brothers. My boys all had strong instincts built in and were easy to reinforce. I miss my boys !
I could see what was coming and took on a 4 yr old full male GSD 2 years ago that had never been walked or socialised. He was initially reactive to everything, but is much happier now and has lots of doggy friends of both sexes and all sizes. He is also highly protective of me, and very loving. Thank you for all your advice which has been a great help with him as I had not experienced a dog with his behaviour before. In the UK we aren't allowed to arm ourselves against the invaders currently streaming in to our country, so having my furry body guard definitely makes me feel safer. Good luck to you all across the pond ❤
I completely agree with having a dog that protects. In my life, I've had a Rottweiler, a Doberman, and a Shepard. My current dog Tyson (Mastiff/Ridgeback) Looks like a Cane Corso, is large, and his look is scary. He tends to keep others at bay with just his look and I'm sure any who may think about harming me will think twice about attempting it. Over all Tyson is gentle and kind in normal situations. Quick story. I was driving in my car with dark windows. Tyson was in the back seat. I stopped at a light and a guy walked toward me asking me something. I couldn't understand him so I brought my window down a bit. He then came closer and asked for cash. I said sorry, I don't have any. He then reached into the window and I freaked out. I immediately pushed the back window down and Tyson went at him. The guy fell back in fear as Tyson tried to reach for him. All ended well as the guy got up and ran off. Thank God Tyson doesn't follow man's laws. He's not afraid to go to jail or to die. All he knows is to love and protect. Like I said, Tyson is a nice dog until He's NOT. 💙

@@lorianderson8145 what's ideal to me is to belong in a society where I don't have to defend myself. Where I don't even have to think about defending myself. Where I can take my security and my family for granted. Where I can take a walk late at night with my pet and he can relax and enjoy sniffing his business as normal, because he knows I am perfectly relaxed. I think that's part what the US got wrong. Too much focus on being able to defend yourself is making you a little paranoid of your neighbor. It is the proof that a weaponized society is not a safest society. It gets to the point where people conceive animal as weapons. It is insane to me.
@@unokepasabait’s not so simple, in every country there will be some crazy ppl that are dangerous. I just had the same thought as Joel about world becoming kinda crazy. Just in last weeks in my town were 3 attacks with knife (deadly) which didn’t happened before. Me and my flatmates also had very bad situation when some guy was trying (twice!) to enter our flat, we are traumatized cos we just waited inside listening to to his knocks (he had a hammer and he hit doors very very hard). At that moment i was thinking ,,i wish i have a big dog who would start to bark”, i felt so vulnerable cos we don’t have guns. Its not like Europe have 0 crimes and sometimes the only legal way is dog, just to scare ppl away
I protect my dog, not the other way round , i keep him safe. That way, we are both safe , he knows he comes to me, but he always lets me know of perceived threats . He's a very smart dog
This. No dog is able to take sensitive choices in a society as complex as humans. No matter how well trained, they are still predatory animals. My dog also understand I am the one who protects him so he don't need to risk make a mistake that can cost him his life. Or my neighbors innocent daughter life.
I didn't have my dog to protect me , I don't live in a place that I would expect to ever need protection anyway . If I was under attack, who knows what would happen ? But to be honest, I think my dog would run away , but what I'm saying is I didn't have my dog to protect me , he sometimes gets a bit worried about things ,he knows to come to me and we will go to a safe place , eg 'if we see cows in field we very quietly go to the fence and find a safe way out , he wouldn't start barking at them , I live in a country hamlet in the UK that's as dangerous as it gets a field of cows and calfs .
@rnchgrl it's a good idea . If they know you're listening, they we have far more trust , they normally show some sign of anxiety if things worry them , we need to learn to read them as well as they read us .
This has been one of my favorites. Really good discussion and I absolutely agree with the points you made with this one. Crime is getting worse and stuff is getting crazy out there. I’m glad I don’t live in the inner city madness but it’s really starting to get worse everywhere overall and the criminals know they can get away with so much stuff. The criminals are getting bolder and bolder and the good people who just want to live in peace are worried about protecting themselves because of how backwards the judicial system has become. If you defend your life regardless of the court knowing it’s self defense, you’ve got a good chance of ending up in jail or prison over it. The self defense stories out there are mind boggling what can happen to good people just trying to protect themselves or their loved ones. I think people at higher risk should get a good deterrent dog as long as it’s something they can handle or they need some help along the way, be responsible enough to go get help from a professional trainer early on before they have issues. Love the humor of this video too by the way. Absolutely hilarious some of the stuff you guys say. Adding my vote to the car/dog combo: My personal vehicle and dog combo would have to be the addition of another black Doberman with a new white Chevy Trail Boss with just a little lift to it sitting on some meaty tires. 😏 I vote that you should definitely both get Dogo Argentinos by the way. I’ve seen some nice bite work done with them. Impressive looking, powerful dogs.
Eric and I thought the exact same thing. A right hand drive (so people think your dog is driving) 70 series new Toyota Land Cruiser, Doberman in the front, Rottweiler and shepherd in the back. All black
I've never had a dog with protective insticts like my Boerboel. She also has no interest in being friends with people she doesn't know (not aggressive, just standoffish), which is offensive to the majority of people, but fine by me.
Guardian dogs are wonderful. They are gentle, but if there is a threat they take care of it. I had a Great Pyrenees who was my mobility assist service dog. She was great. Best dog ever. Great service animal and wonderful protection dog.
Love that Erik every week says "we are live" (even if its a recording), and "that was the best podcast of all time"! Those of us who have been here since episode 1 get it and love the rapport of you and Joel. This episode was crazy but love the discussion about protection. I have to say, though - I have 3 dobermans, and the 2 "smaller" ones are way more intense than my big 'ol European 120 pound male. He's 2 1/2 and the younger male who was the runt of his litter is way more protective, vocal and just basically pissed at the world when he exits the house. He is always ready to discourage anyone who comes on our property to re-think their life choices. Great episode as always, guys.
We had someone come to our house at 4am and try to gain access. Pitch black outside. These intruders were escorted out of the house by our 2 pit bulls, 1 of them being a 100lb intact male. I always tell people pit bulls make crap guard dogs. I didn't even think of my dogs as guard dogs. But I do now! I've never felt so proud of them! May even reward them with a Presa so they have more back up! 🎉
Hi guys! Just want to say how much I enjoy your channel and your podcasts! It took me one month to catch up 😂 I own a small pilates studio in Queens NY, and have a 20 month old red doberman pincher that I have with me all the time. I learned so much from your videos as I am a first time dobe owner! He is a perfect dog that is friendly with my clients and also protective when I'm by myself. Thank you for everything that you do, for the education that you share! It is so important to train dogs to be their best so they can be a beat part of society!
Definitely nothing wrong with getting a dog to alert you and make you feel more safe, but it isn't necessary to put a dog through protection training unless you naturally have a firm hand, thousands of dollars to spend and your dog passes all the requirements and isn't afraid of its own shadow. And realistically, over a quarter of break-ins involve the burglar carrying a firearm, and even Garret Wing has said, "If someone breaks into your house and they have a gun, you can kiss the thousands of dollars and hours you spent on that dog goodbye. I'm not against getting dogs because you want to feel safe, in fact, statistics have shown that people are much less likely to break into homes with big dogs (black dogs, and dogs with pointy ears, specifically, which I found interesting). What I cant promote is everyone feeling less safe so let's just all go get Cane Corsos, Belgians and Rottweilers (which these guys are not suggesting lol). If you are not prepared for the skills, patience and exercise that is required to own a dog like this, then the downsides that come with not properly handling these breeds are far greater than somebody ever breaking into your home to begin with. It makes way more sense to just get something like a lab or something less on edge to alert you, and also getting a firearm than to spend $60,000 and thousands of hours on protection work or relying on a dogs "natural protective instinct" to protect you. Most guardian breeds don't fully understand how to protect you properly on their own. We have a GSD with a great let go and recall command, and we also carry, and that's really all you need. Don't go crazy and buy a dog that is beyond your means. It's way too much work and time you probably don't have when the former is way easier (I guess depending on your state lol), more secure and much more affordable. Great episode this go around. Crime is definitely getting nuts.
Agree, If it gets to the point where you're going to fight a human, take martial arts training, get a weapon, it makes way more sense as a deterrent/means of alert than a failsafe to me too - because you're either training for life and running a tight operation, spending the time, money, to make sure it works and nobody gets hurt ..or you're just being a cowboy with a person aggressive dog.
Excellent points. Most abled bodied men can kill even the biggest and meanest dogs with their bare hands let alone a weapon. Even trained K9 dogs are often fatally injured in the seconds it takes for police officers to catch up. People tend to both over estimate dog power and under estimate human power. For me personally I am fine with a dog that would alert me when someones there so I can handle it, rather than attack and risk getting killed or injured. But again thats me, i would rather have everything stolen from my house than risk losing my dog.
My best guard dog I’ve ever had was a 130lbs female Saint Bernard Adopted at 1 year, barked at all strangers but friendly to those introduced. But also stood on business and bite intruders on multiple occasions and wouldn’t be bribed by food 32 inches at the withers and bark deeper than pop smoke My little sister would walk her late at night and no one wanted any funny business
Great advise there in the beginning of the video! As a female I really appreciate it. I have a GSD that’s a wonderful family dog but will also patrol and watch the house at all time. He will alert us if anything’s suspicious going on. The dog have already scared off one thief that tried to stole our bikes. I’m also spending a lot of time outdoors on hikes, jogging, biking, sleeping in tent etc so my GSD goes with me everywhere. Couldn't picture my life without him! Incredible dog! Thanks for everything you do for the dog community! Great show/podcast! Keep up the good work 👍
In my country it does not matter the size of the dog, the intimidation factor or how effective it has been trained to be as a protection dog, if they are fenced in, they get poisoned and half an hour later it's open season!
I think it would be good to sort out the hateful trolls,but it would be a waste of your energy & time. Stonnie, you do a great job & keep doing what you do. Love your channel & all the dogs are happy & content, they love being around you, speaks volumes. 😊
My husband's friends have always had giant schnauzers. Beautiful dogs. The thieves came in through the upstairs window and were in and out in minutes. The dogs were in their crates downstairs.
@@Croft-do5ioThere is absolutely no reason to hate crates when they are just a tool. You mean to say "I hate people that misuse and/or abuse crates". Like any tool, it serves a purpose when used correctly.
@@Croft-do5io That's a tragedy. I can understand why you would only focus on that. But there are still many benefits to crate training your dog. Also, for me personally I leave crate doors open as soon as the puppy has earned enough trust. But it's always there and the dogs love to go in them, it's their safe space.
The only Giant Schnauzer I have met was just a bundle of laughs, very playful. We used to meet her at the dog beach, our intact male Lab thought she was great and would jump into her van - he obviously wanted to be adopted by the Schnauzers family! Very surprised to hear they are protection dogs.
I love how you have maintained a modest studio. The content is what makes this. I think some creators rely on over the top production sometimes to make up for subpar content; Unleashed does not need to do this!
My father in law was murdered a few years ago. It’s made me fearful of my wife’s safety when I’m not home. While I have a lot of training, both tactical and mma, I fear for her life regularly. I got a beautiful all black, long-haired GSD and have spent a lot of time training him. I feel better knowing that he’s around for my wife when I’m not home. He’s an extremely loving dog but he’s built like a tank and doesn’t fuck around if somebody has bad intentions. His father is an agility champion and his cousins work in law enforcement with the FBI. Sometimes I wish strangers knew how kind my boy can be, yet on the other hand I’m grateful to know he strikes fear into people. I’m trying to get my wife to carry at least a taser or mace. She’s a therapist and people are getting out of hand. Somebody was brandishing a knife and set a fire at her office (not her personal one thank God). Tell it like it is Joel. There is evil in this world and no amount of well-wishing will protect you from it. You have to be willing to do WHATEVER it takes to survive. In my mma training, I’ve learned what my master calls RMA (reality martial arts). It involves eye gouging, biting, groin and nerve attacks, etc. For those of you who have not been in life or death situations, please understand that you will not be magically ready for it. You must train your mind and body. There is no polite way to survive when someone is to take your life. There are no referees to call foul. Honest to God I believe we are approaching Tribulation. Find Jesus but, while you seek peace, prepare for war. May God protect you and your family Joel.
You nailed it. Everything that is written is sure to come to pass exactly as it is written. Jesus Christ, the Lord has told us what shall be in the latter days, before he returns. I would adjure you to continue in prayer and know that the Lord knows them that his. In Luke 21, when speaking of the upcoming trouble, Jesus said: "And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death. And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake. But there shall not an hair of your head perish. In your patience possess ye your souls."
I've got American Akitas for exactly this purpose. I've got two daughters, and I'm not playing around. They're not easy dogs, though, and I've had to learn a lot of dog training and dog behavior to keep balanced Akitas, but they're intense. Very perceptive, very alert, investigating every noise. My male doesn't like anything he doesn't understand and he doesn't understand autism, I've learned. He isn't around it enough to know it's not a problem, he just knows its different and what he doesn't understand he steps up his game around. UPS people won't come to my door. Some people they're particular about, and I heed their instincts. Other dogs are the worst, though. Not tolerant of many dogs, and they make other dogs nervous, often.
Decided we got pretty lucky with our confident dominant black lab. Alerts and is thick enough that he looks and sounds scary enough... but doesn't jack our insurance rates! We had a Rott before this and he was actually more friendly than our current lab.
😂😂😂😂😂😂 We 100% have the bark- benefit of a mutt. She inherited both the GSD scary low growl threatening bark and the foxhound/beagle “everyone in a 100 mile radius is going to hear me” bark. She is 50 pounds of scary barks with the super sweet hound/beagle personality. 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
My kickboxing coach has a sizable malinois (probably close to 80lbs if i had to guess) who is protection trained-much like a police dog. He is very protective of my coach’s truck, and if there is someone that he likes (mainly a woman) he will bark, body block, and even bite if you get too close. I met him for the first time the other day, and he was even “protecting” me against my coach. But that’s how my coach wanted him trained
I’m a few minutes into the podcast (gutted i can never make the lives). You’re so right Joel - the trouble has been sitting just under the surface for a long time, and a small rub on the thin veneer of social norms brings it forward. It’s a big concern, global & not likely to improve anytime soon, and so many aren’t realising the danger in everyday situations. People think I’m weird for checking around my car & surroundings before getting in, locking my doors when driving & driving different ways home etc etc etc. My next dog will be a Rottweiler or a Doberman.
I have been living nomadically for the last 18 months. I got a Rottweiler. It’s true he has been a lot more work to socialize and train than I really knew even though I researched for 3 years prior. However, he is the most awesome dog. He has has 3 months of boot camp and is well behaved. But his guarding ability is phenomenal! He is aware at all times of the environment and steps up if he perceives any threat. ( I am an older single woman) There is no quick fix Rottweilers need training and socializing. If they get it they cannot be matched.
I got a 110lbs bandog for protection. He's a friendly boi but looks and sounds extremely intimidating. I hardly see people even walk past my house these days.
There is power in the Name of Jesus. Call on God always. Time to push deeper into the word of God. That is what your children need they need the word of God running in their heart at all times that it the real protection from everything. Yes dogs are a gift from God and can be a great help in our lives in every way.
While I believe this is a great comment we must also instill into our families as Men that they must be vigilant and aware of your surroundings at a minimum. Faith alone isn't going to save you from these situations because the Evil mo'fo's in the world have none and they are preying on the naiveness in the world unfortunately.
I live in taiwan and it is a beatuifull country and the people are very nice, its a very good place to raise children, alot of the americans i meet online are the most toxic people i have ever meet in my life, not all of them, but its significantly noticeable moving to a usa server and seeing how toxic everyone is.
RottieXStaffie, he has a good bark, and we encourage barking at noises, the door, etc.. but that's about as far as it goes, more likely to get a ball dropped at their feet. Hah 😅
During the night maybe - Mine sleeps all day unless our littly foofoo dog goes off. Foofoo dog wakes from a dead sleep if you so much as look at him - perfect pairing for a lazy guardian jajaja
my rottweiler is an amazing guard dog because she is chill enough to take anywhere, but also always on the look-out for trouble. A rottweiler is always ready to step in and guard. It's their job and they take it very seriously
If you have a guard type dog, check with your homeowner's insurance. Because here in NC, if your dog is on a fairly long list, they will drop you if your dog bites someone. You'll probably have to sign a waiver.
The things are getting crazy everywhere! We’re thinking as a family to get a dog and my man wants a Snoodle and I told him we get better a Doberman for the reason of protection of the kids and general!
Both my pit bull and AmStaff are visual deterrents only lol.....AmStaff weighs a little over 100 pounds. I've had 5 dobies and a rottie thru out my life,all great protection dogs,,and my last dobie would have willingly given his life to save mine~and in fact,he did save my life on multiple occasions(I was in a physically abusive marriage and that dog intervened when I thought I was gonna die). RIP Rocky,I miss you so much❤ Although I love the goofiness of pits,and they ARE a deterrent,basically they'd give an intruder enough reason to hesitate long enough for me to slide the safety off my glock😂
God bless you girl for making it through that abuse. Dogs are better than some " human beings ", and EXCELLENT judges of character. Plus unconditional love.
You guys should do a collaboration with Has from Shield K9. Also an awesome trainer, but he specializes in protection/guard dogs. (Real world not sport dog training) Also, I believe Joel and Has have similar principals when it comes to behavioral training.
I lived in a not so great area of Columbus Ohio and would walk my Min Pins and Boxer together. (All purebreds and all adopted from the Franklin County Animal Shelter). The Boxer would be the first to lick you, the Min Pins would be the first to bite. People would cross the road to get away from the Boxer. Worked for me.
Years ago I had an American Akita/Basenji mix, a chow/retriever mix and a full breed Akita. My wife was alone in the backyard one day when a really sketchy guy stepped into my yard… until he saw the dogs. None of them barked… their looks said everything. Never had to worry about my wife when I was at work.
Im a disabled woman training my own service dog because I've been assaulted before. Things are getting scary and I wanted a dog with a certain look as well as the temperament. I now have a bigger working line GSD who looks a bit like a Malinois. I work in an unsafe neighborhood near the trolley and it's getting worse. Just last week a guy threatened me and a bunch of other passengers and apparently all it took was one look from my dog for this guy to decide to bolt at the next stop. A good working line GSD is no slouch.
LOVE your podcasts! I just got a very well bred GSD puppy. Solid temperament. 12 weeks old yesterday. Would be VERY interested in your “raise/train your protection dog” or whatever you end up calling it. Everyone needs a protection dog nowadays. Single white female getting up in age. No husband to feel safe.
I had to leave early and missed the car/dog question!, so I'm going to give my answer now... The car would be a cobalt blue Bugatti Veyron, and the dog a black, giant Schnauzer. There would be shades, for both me AND the dog. Heavy Metal by Sammy Hagar would be playing. I can't even imagine the trouble I would get into. lol (edited for coherence)
Hi Joel! My so.n has 7 daughters and he has a Malinois. He is for protection. I and my household has the littermate. Li e going with her on errand runs. It takes the opportunity out of opportunistic crime. However, a family was hit and ran while walking their Belgian. So sad. Malinois are amazing! Loaded weapon but with work and after 2 years…amazing. We actually had a visit with you when our Mal was 4 months old. She was a lot then. Now, she is still loaded but predictable. We just have to be aware all the time and she is trained well.
I’m still watching the podcast I’m only five minutes in, but I’m so glad I got a Doberman. I feel so confident when I see my neighbors look terrified of him. I don’t trust anyone.
You EEUU guys have a serious problem in your society if you have to rely on a dog for protection. As European I really cannot wrap my mind about that. I feel safe at all times. My dog perfectly understand I am the one that protects him so he doen't need to risk doing a bad choice that end up in damaging his integrity or even his life just for defending me or my family. That's really a really difficult choice no animal is capable to sensibily take in a human society. There is no really need for it. You guys better consider the type of society you have been building and where you went wrong if you need to task an animal with something you should be responsible of.
The beauty in my avatar was an ambassador for her breed, very well trained, very friendly and loving, never acted aggressive towards anyone. One night at the park we frequented as I was walking her, two guys walked up to us, acting friendly as they called out a greeting as they approached. One guy stopped about 8 feet in front of me, but the second guy continued walking to my left and around me, as he was at about 45° angle from me I looked at him, and he gave me this overly friendly smile as he still kept walking. I KNEW what was up, they were going to rob me, the second guy was trying to circle around behind me so they could threaten me from two sides. Maybe because it was dark and they didn't see her, maybe because she hadn't barked or acted up as they approached, but my 135#, 30" at the shoulders, girl was right at heel at my left thigh. As the second guy got about even with my left shoulder and about 6 feet away, my girl looked at the first guy, looked at the second guy, and cut loose with a 3 second ROAR! It was NOT a growl or a snarl, it sounded like a lion roaring, it was so strong I could feel the ground shaking under my feet, and feel the sound vibrations beating on my chest. It was that strong. The second guy spun around so fast it was funny and rejoined his friend in front of me, and the first one said "Hey amigo, is your dog friendly?" Remember I said she was well trained? She was not on a leash, I did not have a hold on her, she didn't move an inch from my side the whole time. She didn't bark or growl at them, didn't lunge towards them, didn't do anything else after her growl. Just stood there erect with every hair sticking up, making her look even bigger, and STARED at them. INTENTLY. Muttering "C'mon, make my day!" under her breath. I looked them each in the eye to let them know I was wise to them, and just said "She's trained". Both of them looked at her staring at them, then wished us a good night and quickly walked away. Yes, she WAS "trained", but not for protection. That she did on her own. She was definitely a once in a lifetime companion.
I remember like 15 years ago when my friend was going to buy a Rottweiler and the breeder had both rottweilers and boer boel... the growl that came from the boer boel was insane. felt like it made de ground vibrate. I'm never been scared of dogs but if the boer boel wasn't in a cage I'd shit my pants.
Your Sequioa could have a timing belt or chain depending on the the year. The same years can have either or depending on the engine size 4.7 liter vs 5.7. 2009 5.7 has a timing chain which is lubed by oil and frequent oil changes are best defense against premature wear. If it's a 5.7 liter it's possible that a tensioner is stuck, which is what pushes the timing chain guide into the chain to remove slack. This slack could be what you're hearing as knocking. Could be as simple as swithcing to a thick viscosity oil 5w30 to quiet it down if that's in fact what is causing the sound. If it in any case the chain breaks (which doesn't happen often ) or the belt depending on year of vehicle it's pretty much bye bye engine. Both are pretty involved jobs and some other things my need replaced while in the front of the engine but it's much cheaper than a new vehicle. If you were at a dealership they were probably just trying to sell ya a new one with that bs about it not going back together right. You either have a payment on a car note or a periodic payment(s) for regular maintenance is the way I look at it.
all i need is my shih tsu mix to alert me to dangers heck this dog scared off a full grown bear and her cubs on trash night. btw the other mixes are besenji, yorkie, and mini poodle. for those who dont know shih tsus were bred in tibet to be watch dogs. they alert to sounds and the other dogs and owners deal with the situation. the besenji is very wary of new people and new sounds and just like the poodle and yorkie they can be very territorial. my dog has a bark that can wake the dead and if you didnt know any better you would think he was going to lunge and bite. he also doesnt take his eyes off new people until he gets to know them and wont even take a treat.
My Shih Tzu was great at letting me know who wasn't good when out on walks and was fearless. The only issue was his size and the breed has so many health issues. He was very intelligent. I had to put him down on Jànuary 5. Too bad the 80 lb. Tibetan dogs are rare.
I have a 13 yo female GSD that would still scare the tish out of someone. She has put herself between and strangers many times. My other one is a 5 yo giant Pit/Husky/Rottie mix that is scary behind a door. Not sure he would actually do anything.
What I did with my 2 GSD mixes is not immediately stop them barking at things out windows, a the door and my chain link fence that has an alley behind it. If I hear “that tone” for longer than a minute I will look if I decide it’s safe I say enough, they come and I praise them. When I am not home I can imagine how long they go off. The deterrence is huge my AussieGSD has scared off a burglar so bad they didn’t even close my gate. My neighbor put her back in the yard.
If I'm ill and stay in bed with a cold, my male labrador acts up and tries to take charge when my partner takes him out for a walk. He's VERY aware of his responsibilities and position in the household.
I have 3 GSD. Two of them bark at the front door, the other one stays nearby the back door … nobody getting in unnoticed … have to quit telling people they don’t harm humans. But: we never tried to find out wether they would protect biting wise. The problem over here: if the dogs bites someone even in the house, I could be charged … that’s different in the US
My gsd are amazing however I must say the Dogue De Bordeaux is amazing! Relaxed yet will defend with their life! Nobody ever mentions them !! I totally agree with your choices and the ddb is great so long as they are awake! We had trespasser dog ran them off the yard and cornered them no training !! This is an excellent video and very accurate! I take my gsd everywhere ! The people out here are crazy! Walked my gsd there was a nut sitting on the street that dog kept eyes locked and walked backward until out of sight watching!! Two min later sees a couple no action dogs know!!! A great show!
I agree you absolutely need a protection dog but you need to also protect yourself and your family when you don’t have your dog. I know CA is horrible with this but all I’ll say is 2A. Protect yourself and your family. We just got a female German Shepard Puppy that we are bringing up for protection and also to help train other dogs (I just got the Beckham training program). The world is a scary place. Stay safe. LOVE your content.
I know many will not agree but dogs are not very valuable as protection from dangerous people, beyond barking to alert their owners or perhaps against petty theft because low level criminals may look for easier targets, but even smaller dogs can help with this.
I have 2 pit bulls,,have had many dobies and a Rottweiler. While my dobie and rottie(in that order) would have DIED protecting my life,I'm realistic in the fact that the only protection value my pits have is the fear factor. An intruder will see them(200 combined pounds)and hesitate,maybe think twice. Giving me time to flip the safety on my glock🤣
Every woman should have a protection dog ! And if you don’t want you can adopt a big big dog it can also scare the predator and also all the big dogs that I saw that were adopted were extremely loyal and they will protect you ❤
funny thing about car companies here in peru is that not only will you see toyota and hyundai cars and trucks but also hyundai and toyota cellphones. they even have toyota motorcycles here.
A Cane Corso is alot of work in all other areas BUT guarding comes natural to them so you never have to teach them that or worry about someone breaking in or harming you. I would say it’s the best guard dog but it takes a very specific person to raise them properly. ❤️
I would say that one should put the same effort in a rottweiler as in a Corso. Here in Sweden I see many out of control rottweilers. So I actually disagree om the point that rottweilers are easier to raise.
My Malinois, RIOT will destroy a grown man in seconds. He is highly trained to protect. 73 pounds. Malinois are not for 90 percent of the population. They require a lot of work, but worth every moment. Not the size of the dog, it's about the size of the fight in the dog. Malinois are pound for pound the ultimate warrior. When trained correctly, they are unbeatable. Speed, intelligence, bite, power. Malinois or Dobermans, you can't beat them for protection and obedience. Let's not forget loyalty.
Hi Joel! My so.n has 7 daughters and he has a Malinois. He is for protection. I and my household has the littermate. Li e going with her on errand runs. It takes the opportunity out of opportunistic crime. However, a family was hit and ran while walking their Belgian. So sad.
Komondor might look like a mop on the internet, but at 175 lbs and teeth, they will F you up. They aren't calm and passive like a Newfie,. They are mentally super protective, probably too aggessive for most. Like a Caucasian Shepherd
110 lb gsd was great on working horse farm - great with clients, visitors while great with kids in yard when strangers (shifty) would drive up. Only issue I had to put him in the house while playing squirt guns with kids, or kids playing with friends yelling and screaming (would go into protection mode-even against my hubby). Walking on leash in public flawless, would stay on property without fences. Scared the ups driver a few times, but he never went into protection mode with them-he was very discerning.
On 2 occasions -neighbors house 1/2 mile away-shifty guys drive up. Gsd went into mode immediately-guys left (once they were obviously looking to rob home). Female alone in county with kids he was priceless.
I would like you to watch this video. I'm only concerned about the handling of this dog and its training. Dies this type of training need to be reinforced regularly to keep the dog sharp,and on point?

@@BDTraining gracias. I felt especially proud of 58:45 but that's one of the ones you've gotta play the game after reading and then go listen to what you guys actually talked about to catch. I know it's a lengthy set this week. I got to make fun of myself too for once so that was a good addition too!
I think most only need a dog as a deterrent. This is specifically why I got a doberman. Big bark, intimidating, and crazy alert. He makes eye contact with everyone which takes away their ability to surprise me. That's the biggest deterrent is eye contact.
No sound or person goes unnoticed by my dobie. He does a good job of giving off that "vibe" (people will cross the street sometimes) and he's good at convincing people he's badder than they are.
Great video! Men, grow a set please. I LOVE my GSD's, they are great
You EEUU guys have a serious problem in your society if you have to rely on a dog for protection. As European I really cannot wrap my mind about that. I feel safe at all times.

I’m in Utah and recently learned that the way our law is written, if your dog bites someone who is trespassing on your property or intruding in your home than you’re still accountable for that and can get sued. There is zero protection. You can shoot the guy in your house, but your dog cannot bite them. Make that make sense. I just wrote my legislatures to see if they’ll do anything about it cause one of the reasons I have a dog is help protect my family and home. At least until I can grab a firearm. Oh and putting a ‘beware of dog’ sign up doesn’t protect you, it actually implies guilt because you’re admitting your dog is dangerous. It’s so twisted.
I've heard of some of those laws. Gotta love freedom. Make sure to celebrate the fourth 🇨🇳
I thin most states are simular to yours. A lawyer told me once that the best way to protect yourself from being sued for your dog biting an intruder is to post signs saying that the owner is not responsible for any injury, illness, damage to personal property or death that occurs on the property. He told me that it depends on the judge whether or not it helps. He also said do not put up any kind of beware of dog or beware of owner or any other kind of threatening signs.
I’ve heard Rhodesian Ridgebacks are best because of their INTENSE bark and if an intruder is in the house they will corner them and hold them there til back up arrives (you with your gun) - much like how they were bred to hunt lions in Africa. They are fearless and highly protective
RR are not good guard dogs. Generally you dont want a hunting type dog as a guard dog. Live stock guardians have the most suitable mindset for guarding. The ultimate guard dogs are the 2 azorean cattle dog breeds. Old world dogs.
@@joeryerson9295 interesting. I wonder if it really would hold up in court
I have had 6 Boxers over 30 years and always felt safe. On a few occasions where I was startled, they turned on a dime to protective mode. If I am okay with a person, then they are friendly goofy selves. Even if I just think negativity about a person, they would become highly alert. We traveled the world with our Boxers we lived in Europe for 4 years and Asia for 4 years. I felt so safe when my husband traveled for work. Our last Boxer passed away 1.5 years ago. We just moved back to the US in February. My neighborhood is very safe. I live in Texas and we also have guns. I am going to get our 7th Boxer in July from Louisiana Boxer Rescue. I feel lost without them. I don’t think I could handle a more powerful breed.
The fact that he is taking his friends privacy so seriously is another reason I like this podcast
I had a 75-80 lb Cattle dog mix with the greatest temperament naturally but if you didn't know him and didn't belong in the yard or house and just walked up he stopped you before you got too close. It was pre-installed from the factory. That was my "Prince or Boscoe" dog. RIP Frankie.
I have a beautiful well trained Cane Corso and I love having him with me! Never felt safer ❤
Did u get him from a breeder
@@uncommonsense1976 I sure did and got him training starting at 10 weeks he's only 8 months now but very smart 😍
Best personal protection dog I ever had was GSD/Rhodesian Ridgeback mix. Best property protection dogs I ever owned were GSD/Pittie mix brothers. My boys all had strong instincts built in and were easy to reinforce. I miss my boys !
I could see what was coming and took on a 4 yr old full male GSD 2 years ago that had never been walked or socialised. He was initially reactive to everything, but is much happier now and has lots of doggy friends of both sexes and all sizes. He is also highly protective of me, and very loving. Thank you for all your advice which has been a great help with him as I had not experienced a dog with his behaviour before. In the UK we aren't allowed to arm ourselves against the invaders currently streaming in to our country, so having my furry body guard definitely makes me feel safer. Good luck to you all across the pond ❤
I completely agree with having a dog that protects. In my life, I've had a Rottweiler, a Doberman, and a Shepard. My current dog Tyson (Mastiff/Ridgeback) Looks like a Cane Corso, is large, and his look is scary. He tends to keep others at bay with just his look and I'm sure any who may think about harming me will think twice about attempting it. Over all Tyson is gentle and kind in normal situations. Quick story. I was driving in my car with dark windows. Tyson was in the back seat. I stopped at a light and a guy walked toward me asking me something. I couldn't understand him so I brought my window down a bit. He then came closer and asked for cash. I said sorry, I don't have any. He then reached into the window and I freaked out. I immediately pushed the back window down and Tyson went at him. The guy fell back in fear as Tyson tried to reach for him. All ended well as the guy got up and ran off. Thank God Tyson doesn't follow man's laws. He's not afraid to go to jail or to die. All he knows is to love and protect. Like I said, Tyson is a nice dog until He's NOT. 💙

@@unokepasaba Agree. This place is going to crapo. Here in the States, if you defend yourself, you go to jail.
@@lorianderson8145 what's ideal to me is to belong in a society where I don't have to defend myself. Where I don't even have to think about defending myself. Where I can take my security and my family for granted. Where I can take a walk late at night with my pet and he can relax and enjoy sniffing his business as normal, because he knows I am perfectly relaxed.
I think that's part what the US got wrong. Too much focus on being able to defend yourself is making you a little paranoid of your neighbor. It is the proof that a weaponized society is not a safest society. It gets to the point where people conceive animal as weapons. It is insane to me.
@@unokepasabait’s not so simple, in every country there will be some crazy ppl that are dangerous. I just had the same thought as Joel about world becoming kinda crazy. Just in last weeks in my town were 3 attacks with knife (deadly) which didn’t happened before. Me and my flatmates also had very bad situation when some guy was trying (twice!) to enter our flat, we are traumatized cos we just waited inside listening to to his knocks (he had a hammer and he hit doors very very hard). At that moment i was thinking ,,i wish i have a big dog who would start to bark”, i felt so vulnerable cos we don’t have guns. Its not like Europe have 0 crimes and sometimes the only legal way is dog, just to scare ppl away
I protect my dog, not the other way round , i keep him safe. That way, we are both safe , he knows he comes to me, but he always lets me know of perceived threats . He's a very smart dog
This. No dog is able to take sensitive choices in a society as complex as humans. No matter how well trained, they are still predatory animals. My dog also understand I am the one who protects him so he don't need to risk make a mistake that can cost him his life. Or my neighbors innocent daughter life.
I didn't have my dog to protect me , I don't live in a place that I would expect to ever need protection anyway . If I was under attack, who knows what would happen ? But to be honest, I think my dog would run away , but what I'm saying is I didn't have my dog to protect me , he sometimes gets a bit worried about things ,he knows to come to me and we will go to a safe place , eg 'if we see cows in field we very quietly go to the fence and find a safe way out , he wouldn't start barking at them , I live in a country hamlet in the UK that's as dangerous as it gets a field of cows and calfs .
I feel that way, too, and am currently working on a 'get behind' command incase I ever have to take things to a next level.
@rnchgrl it's a good idea . If they know you're listening, they we have far more trust , they normally show some sign of anxiety if things worry them , we need to learn to read them as well as they read us .
@@juliecrowe5252 YES!!!
This has been one of my favorites. Really good discussion and I absolutely agree with the points you made with this one. Crime is getting worse and stuff is getting crazy out there. I’m glad I don’t live in the inner city madness but it’s really starting to get worse everywhere overall and the criminals know they can get away with so much stuff. The criminals are getting bolder and bolder and the good people who just want to live in peace are worried about protecting themselves because of how backwards the judicial system has become. If you defend your life regardless of the court knowing it’s self defense, you’ve got a good chance of ending up in jail or prison over it. The self defense stories out there are mind boggling what can happen to good people just trying to protect themselves or their loved ones. I think people at higher risk should get a good deterrent dog as long as it’s something they can handle or they need some help along the way, be responsible enough to go get help from a professional trainer early on before they have issues.
Love the humor of this video too by the way. Absolutely hilarious some of the stuff you guys say. Adding my vote to the car/dog combo: My personal vehicle and dog combo would have to be the addition of another black Doberman with a new white Chevy Trail Boss with just a little lift to it sitting on some meaty tires. 😏
I vote that you should definitely both get Dogo Argentinos by the way. I’ve seen some nice bite work done with them. Impressive looking, powerful dogs.
Eric and I thought the exact same thing. A right hand drive (so people think your dog is driving) 70 series new Toyota Land Cruiser, Doberman in the front, Rottweiler and shepherd in the back. All black
I've never had a dog with protective insticts like my Boerboel. She also has no interest in being friends with people she doesn't know (not aggressive, just standoffish), which is offensive to the majority of people, but fine by me.
Love my Boerboel!! Best dog ever.
Really love the Boerboel they are so unique AMAZING dog.
Guardian dogs are wonderful. They are gentle, but if there is a threat they take care of it. I had a Great Pyrenees who was my mobility assist service dog. She was great. Best dog ever. Great service animal and wonderful protection dog.
Dogs are great. I have five. Firearms and cameras are better.
Everything combined is best.
If you read my story I just posted, I never expected her to do that. But I wasn't unprepared if she hadn't done that, 1911 was on my right hip.

Yes to the camera, dogs, and gun combo I meant
Love that Erik every week says "we are live" (even if its a recording), and "that was the best podcast of all time"! Those of us who have been here since episode 1 get it and love the rapport of you and Joel. This episode was crazy but love the discussion about protection. I have to say, though - I have 3 dobermans, and the 2 "smaller" ones are way more intense than my big 'ol European 120 pound male. He's 2 1/2 and the younger male who was the runt of his litter is way more protective, vocal and just basically pissed at the world when he exits the house. He is always ready to discourage anyone who comes on our property to re-think their life choices. Great episode as always, guys.
We had someone come to our house at 4am and try to gain access. Pitch black outside. These intruders were escorted out of the house by our 2 pit bulls, 1 of them being a 100lb intact male. I always tell people pit bulls make crap guard dogs. I didn't even think of my dogs as guard dogs. But I do now! I've never felt so proud of them! May even reward them with a Presa so they have more back up! 🎉
Reward them with their favorite treats! I don't think your big boy needs backup 😂

Hi guys! Just want to say how much I enjoy your channel and your podcasts! It took me one month to catch up 😂
I own a small pilates studio in Queens NY, and have a 20 month old red doberman pincher that I have with me all the time. I learned so much from your videos as I am a first time dobe owner! He is a perfect dog that is friendly with my clients and also protective when I'm by myself. Thank you for everything that you do, for the education that you share! It is so important to train dogs to be their best so they can be a beat part of society!
Definitely nothing wrong with getting a dog to alert you and make you feel more safe, but it isn't necessary to put a dog through protection training unless you naturally have a firm hand, thousands of dollars to spend and your dog passes all the requirements and isn't afraid of its own shadow. And realistically, over a quarter of break-ins involve the burglar carrying a firearm, and even Garret Wing has said, "If someone breaks into your house and they have a gun, you can kiss the thousands of dollars and hours you spent on that dog goodbye. I'm not against getting dogs because you want to feel safe, in fact, statistics have shown that people are much less likely to break into homes with big dogs (black dogs, and dogs with pointy ears, specifically, which I found interesting). What I cant promote is everyone feeling less safe so let's just all go get Cane Corsos, Belgians and Rottweilers (which these guys are not suggesting lol). If you are not prepared for the skills, patience and exercise that is required to own a dog like this, then the downsides that come with not properly handling these breeds are far greater than somebody ever breaking into your home to begin with.
It makes way more sense to just get something like a lab or something less on edge to alert you, and also getting a firearm than to spend $60,000 and thousands of hours on protection work or relying on a dogs "natural protective instinct" to protect you. Most guardian breeds don't fully understand how to protect you properly on their own.
We have a GSD with a great let go and recall command, and we also carry, and that's really all you need. Don't go crazy and buy a dog that is beyond your means. It's way too much work and time you probably don't have when the former is way easier (I guess depending on your state lol), more secure and much more affordable. Great episode this go around. Crime is definitely getting nuts.
🎯
Agree, If it gets to the point where you're going to fight a human, take martial arts training, get a weapon, it makes way more sense as a deterrent/means of alert than a failsafe to me too - because you're either training for life and running a tight operation, spending the time, money, to make sure it works and nobody gets hurt ..or you're just being a cowboy with a person aggressive dog.
Excellent points. Most abled bodied men can kill even the biggest and meanest dogs with their bare hands let alone a weapon. Even trained K9 dogs are often fatally injured in the seconds it takes for police officers to catch up. People tend to both over estimate dog power and under estimate human power. For me personally I am fine with a dog that would alert me when someones there so I can handle it, rather than attack and risk getting killed or injured. But again thats me, i would rather have everything stolen from my house than risk losing my dog.
Joel speaking truth yet again. Thank you Gentlemen.
My best guard dog I’ve ever had was a 130lbs female Saint Bernard
Adopted at 1 year, barked at all strangers but friendly to those introduced. But also stood on business and bite intruders on multiple occasions and wouldn’t be bribed by food
32 inches at the withers and bark deeper than pop smoke
My little sister would walk her late at night and no one wanted any funny business
Russia used the St. Bernard to make the Moscow Watch dog
The great Pyrenees breed was used to help bring back the almost extinct St Bernard breed after the war
Great advise there in the beginning of the video! As a female I really appreciate it. I have a GSD that’s a wonderful family dog but will also patrol and watch the house at all time. He will alert us if anything’s suspicious going on. The dog have already scared off one thief that tried to stole our bikes. I’m also spending a lot of time outdoors on hikes, jogging, biking, sleeping in tent etc so my GSD goes with me everywhere. Couldn't picture my life without him! Incredible dog! Thanks for everything you do for the dog community! Great show/podcast! Keep up the good work 👍
In my country it does not matter the size of the dog, the intimidation factor or how effective it has been trained to be as a protection dog, if they are fenced in, they get poisoned and half an hour later it's open season!
I think it would be good to sort out the hateful trolls,but it would be a waste of your energy & time. Stonnie, you do a great job & keep doing what you do. Love your channel & all the dogs are happy & content, they love being around you, speaks volumes. 😊
You took the words right out of my mouth
My husband's friends have always had giant schnauzers. Beautiful dogs.
The thieves came in through the upstairs window and were in and out in minutes. The dogs were in their crates downstairs.
Another reason I hate crates.
@@Croft-do5ioThere is absolutely no reason to hate crates when they are just a tool. You mean to say "I hate people that misuse and/or abuse crates". Like any tool, it serves a purpose when used correctly.
@@kevingaare719 I know of a family that lost their three dogs in a house fire. The dogs were crated. Would you like to be crated in a house fire?
@@Croft-do5io That's a tragedy. I can understand why you would only focus on that. But there are still many benefits to crate training your dog. Also, for me personally I leave crate doors open as soon as the puppy has earned enough trust. But it's always there and the dogs love to go in them, it's their safe space.
The only Giant Schnauzer I have met was just a bundle of laughs, very playful.
We used to meet her at the dog beach, our intact male Lab thought she was great and would jump into her van - he obviously wanted to be adopted by the Schnauzers family!
Very surprised to hear they are protection dogs.
I love how you have maintained a modest studio. The content is what makes this. I think some creators rely on over the top production sometimes to make up for subpar content; Unleashed does not need to do this!
My father in law was murdered a few years ago. It’s made me fearful of my wife’s safety when I’m not home. While I have a lot of training, both tactical and mma, I fear for her life regularly. I got a beautiful all black, long-haired GSD and have spent a lot of time training him. I feel better knowing that he’s around for my wife when I’m not home. He’s an extremely loving dog but he’s built like a tank and doesn’t fuck around if somebody has bad intentions. His father is an agility champion and his cousins work in law enforcement with the FBI. Sometimes I wish strangers knew how kind my boy can be, yet on the other hand I’m grateful to know he strikes fear into people.
I’m trying to get my wife to carry at least a taser or mace. She’s a therapist and people are getting out of hand. Somebody was brandishing a knife and set a fire at her office (not her personal one thank God).
Tell it like it is Joel. There is evil in this world and no amount of well-wishing will protect you from it. You have to be willing to do WHATEVER it takes to survive. In my mma training, I’ve learned what my master calls RMA (reality martial arts). It involves eye gouging, biting, groin and nerve attacks, etc. For those of you who have not been in life or death situations, please understand that you will not be magically ready for it. You must train your mind and body. There is no polite way to survive when someone is to take your life. There are no referees to call foul.
Honest to God I believe we are approaching Tribulation. Find Jesus but, while you seek peace, prepare for war. May God protect you and your family Joel.
You nailed it. Everything that is written is sure to come to pass exactly as it is written. Jesus Christ, the Lord has told us what shall be in the latter days, before he returns. I would adjure you to continue in prayer and know that the Lord knows them that his.
In Luke 21, when speaking of the upcoming trouble, Jesus said:
"And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends; and some of you shall they cause to be put to death.
And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake.
But there shall not an hair of your head perish.
In your patience possess ye your souls."
I've got American Akitas for exactly this purpose. I've got two daughters, and I'm not playing around.
They're not easy dogs, though, and I've had to learn a lot of dog training and dog behavior to keep balanced Akitas, but they're intense.
Very perceptive, very alert, investigating every noise. My male doesn't like anything he doesn't understand and he doesn't understand autism, I've learned. He isn't around it enough to know it's not a problem, he just knows its different and what he doesn't understand he steps up his game around.
UPS people won't come to my door. Some people they're particular about, and I heed their instincts.
Other dogs are the worst, though. Not tolerant of many dogs, and they make other dogs nervous, often.
Boxer are great watch dogs, at least my female is. Nothing gets past her.
I don't know about gaurd dog, but she sure puts on a show.
Decided we got pretty lucky with our confident dominant black lab. Alerts and is thick enough that he looks and sounds scary enough... but doesn't jack our insurance rates! We had a Rott before this and he was actually more friendly than our current lab.
Omg I know my lab has a bark like a mastiff and just as protective ! They don’t get enough credit !
😂😂😂😂😂😂 We 100% have the bark- benefit of a mutt. She inherited both the GSD scary low growl threatening bark and the foxhound/beagle “everyone in a 100 mile radius is going to hear me” bark. She is 50 pounds of scary barks with the super sweet hound/beagle personality. 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
Bloodhound/German shepherd mix excellent family protection but easly controllable mutt ❤ him
My kickboxing coach has a sizable malinois (probably close to 80lbs if i had to guess) who is protection trained-much like a police dog. He is very protective of my coach’s truck, and if there is someone that he likes (mainly a woman) he will bark, body block, and even bite if you get too close. I met him for the first time the other day, and he was even “protecting” me against my coach. But that’s how my coach wanted him trained
I’m a few minutes into the podcast (gutted i can never make the lives). You’re so right Joel - the trouble has been sitting just under the surface for a long time, and a small rub on the thin veneer of social norms brings it forward. It’s a big concern, global & not likely to improve anytime soon, and so many aren’t realising the danger in everyday situations. People think I’m weird for checking around my car & surroundings before getting in, locking my doors when driving & driving different ways home etc etc etc. My next dog will be a Rottweiler or a Doberman.
These days I don’t mind being a cautious weirdo. I think we’re growing in numbers
My daughters graduate from college next year. I told them their graduation gift is a big dog. They are both great with our dogs.
@JenniferAguiartampa need good fence too
I have been living nomadically for the last 18 months. I got a Rottweiler. It’s true he has been a lot more work to socialize and train than I really knew even though I researched for 3 years prior. However, he is the most awesome dog. He has has 3 months of boot camp and is well behaved. But his guarding ability is phenomenal! He is aware at all times of the environment and steps up if he perceives any threat. ( I am an older single woman) There is no quick fix Rottweilers need training and socializing. If they get it they cannot be matched.
We grew up with collies and they were very protective of us.
Im owner and breeder of central Asian shepherds. Im feeling very safe at home,at hikes..
Livestock guardian breed is an Anetolian Shepherd
I got a 110lbs bandog for protection. He's a friendly boi but looks and sounds extremely intimidating. I hardly see people even walk past my house these days.
Also, add Gampr to your line up of livestock guardian dogs. They are pretty epic as well.
There is power in the Name of Jesus. Call on God always. Time to push deeper into the word of God. That is what your children need they need the word of God running in their heart at all times that it the real protection from everything. Yes dogs are a gift from God and can be a great help in our lives in every way.
King James Version 💯
While I believe this is a great comment we must also instill into our families as Men that they must be vigilant and aware of your surroundings at a minimum. Faith alone isn't going to save you from these situations because the Evil mo'fo's in the world have none and they are preying on the naiveness in the world unfortunately.
I live in taiwan and it is a beatuifull country and the people are very nice, its a very good place to raise children, alot of the americans i meet online are the most toxic people i have ever meet in my life, not all of them, but its significantly noticeable moving to a usa server and seeing how toxic everyone is.
I’ve never felt safer since I brought a Great Pyrenees into the house. I sleep well.
Your cars interior disagrees Sir!
RottieXStaffie, he has a good bark, and we encourage barking at noises, the door, etc.. but that's about as far as it goes, more likely to get a ball dropped at their feet. Hah 😅
@@rptrick79lol true
During the night maybe - Mine sleeps all day unless our littly foofoo dog goes off. Foofoo dog wakes from a dead sleep if you so much as look at him - perfect pairing for a lazy guardian jajaja
my rottweiler is an amazing guard dog because she is chill enough to take anywhere, but also always on the look-out for trouble. A rottweiler is always ready to step in and guard. It's their job and they take it very seriously
If you have a guard type dog, check with your homeowner's insurance. Because here in NC, if your dog is on a fairly long list, they will drop you if your dog bites someone. You'll probably have to sign a waiver.
The things are getting crazy everywhere! We’re thinking as a family to get a dog and my man wants a Snoodle and I told him we get better a Doberman for the reason of protection of the kids and general!
Get 3 GSD's. At least one male. That's all you need! Thanks for the conversation.
That’s what I have and a lab lol!! The one female stays up all night and patrols the house amazing
Both my pit bull and AmStaff are visual deterrents only lol.....AmStaff weighs a little over 100 pounds.
I've had 5 dobies and a rottie thru out my life,all great protection dogs,,and my last dobie would have willingly given his life to save mine~and in fact,he did save my life on multiple occasions(I was in a physically abusive marriage and that dog intervened when I thought I was gonna die). RIP Rocky,I miss you so much❤
Although I love the goofiness of pits,and they ARE a deterrent,basically they'd give an intruder enough reason to hesitate long enough for me to slide the safety off my glock😂
God bless you girl for making it through that abuse. Dogs are better than some " human beings ", and EXCELLENT judges of character. Plus unconditional love.
You guys should do a collaboration with Has from Shield K9. Also an awesome trainer, but he specializes in protection/guard dogs. (Real world not sport dog training) Also, I believe Joel and Has have similar principals when it comes to behavioral training.
Absolutely, I want one of Haz’s dog. I’d rather have one of his elite protection dogs, then a new car.
Dog trainer Joel Beckman attacked by neighbour's Rottweiler after wandering around neighbourhood dressed as a 'creepy guy'.
🤣
Yeah my kids were like “make sure the neighbors don’t see you”
lol, or now on a watch list.
I lived in a not so great area of Columbus Ohio and would walk my Min Pins and Boxer together. (All purebreds and all adopted from the Franklin County Animal Shelter). The Boxer would be the first to lick you, the Min Pins would be the first to bite. People would cross the road to get away from the Boxer. Worked for me.
Years ago I had an American Akita/Basenji mix, a chow/retriever mix and a full breed Akita. My wife was alone in the backyard one day when a really sketchy guy stepped into my yard… until he saw the dogs. None of them barked… their looks said everything. Never had to worry about my wife when I was at work.
Im a disabled woman training my own service dog because I've been assaulted before. Things are getting scary and I wanted a dog with a certain look as well as the temperament. I now have a bigger working line GSD who looks a bit like a Malinois. I work in an unsafe neighborhood near the trolley and it's getting worse. Just last week a guy threatened me and a bunch of other passengers and apparently all it took was one look from my dog for this guy to decide to bolt at the next stop. A good working line GSD is no slouch.
Nice. Do you listen to Doggy U or Service dog training by any chance? Just curious.
Perfect dog and car is what I already have, billet grey with black trimming jeep wrangler and a dark gray Cane Corso
LOVE your podcasts! I just got a very well bred GSD puppy. Solid temperament. 12 weeks old yesterday. Would be VERY interested in your “raise/train your protection dog” or whatever you end up calling it. Everyone needs a protection dog nowadays. Single white female getting up in age. No husband to feel safe.
I had to leave early and missed the car/dog question!, so I'm going to give my answer now...
The car would be a cobalt blue Bugatti Veyron, and the dog a black, giant Schnauzer. There would be shades, for both me AND the dog. Heavy Metal by Sammy Hagar would be playing. I can't even imagine the trouble I would get into. lol (edited for coherence)
Hi Joel! My so.n has 7 daughters and he has a Malinois. He is for protection. I and my household has the littermate. Li e going with her on errand runs. It takes the opportunity out of opportunistic crime.
However, a family was hit and ran while walking their Belgian. So sad.
Malinois are amazing! Loaded weapon but with work and after 2 years…amazing. We actually had a visit with you when our Mal was 4 months old. She was a lot then. Now, she is still loaded but predictable. We just have to be aware all the time and she is trained well.
Yeah the world is going insane my dad is going to get a great dane next year I'm excited but I also understand why we need it and that part scares me
Completely agree. Same here in the UK.
I’m still watching the podcast I’m only five minutes in, but I’m so glad I got a Doberman. I feel so confident when I see my neighbors look terrified of him. I don’t trust anyone.
You EEUU guys have a serious problem in your society if you have to rely on a dog for protection. As European I really cannot wrap my mind about that. I feel safe at all times. My dog perfectly understand I am the one that protects him so he doen't need to risk doing a bad choice that end up in damaging his integrity or even his life just for defending me or my family. That's really a really difficult choice no animal is capable to sensibily take in a human society. There is no really need for it.
You guys better consider the type of society you have been building and where you went wrong if you need to task an animal with something you should be responsible of.
The beauty in my avatar was an ambassador for her breed, very well trained, very friendly and loving, never acted aggressive towards anyone.
One night at the park we frequented as I was walking her, two guys walked up to us, acting friendly as they called out a greeting as they approached.
One guy stopped about 8 feet in front of me, but the second guy continued walking to my left and around me, as he was at about 45° angle from me I looked at him, and he gave me this overly friendly smile as he still kept walking.
I KNEW what was up, they were going to rob me, the second guy was trying to circle around behind me so they could threaten me from two sides.
Maybe because it was dark and they didn't see her, maybe because she hadn't barked or acted up as they approached, but my 135#, 30" at the shoulders, girl was right at heel at my left thigh. As the second guy got about even with my left shoulder and about 6 feet away, my girl looked at the first guy, looked at the second guy, and cut loose with a 3 second ROAR!
It was NOT a growl or a snarl, it sounded like a lion roaring, it was so strong I could feel the ground shaking under my feet, and feel the sound vibrations beating on my chest. It was that strong.
The second guy spun around so fast it was funny and rejoined his friend in front of me, and the first one said "Hey amigo, is your dog friendly?"
Remember I said she was well trained? She was not on a leash, I did not have a hold on her, she didn't move an inch from my side the whole time. She didn't bark or growl at them, didn't lunge towards them, didn't do anything else after her growl.
Just stood there erect with every hair sticking up, making her look even bigger, and STARED at them. INTENTLY. Muttering "C'mon, make my day!" under her breath.
I looked them each in the eye to let them know I was wise to them, and just said "She's trained". Both of them looked at her staring at them, then wished us a good night and quickly walked away.
Yes, she WAS "trained", but not for protection. That she did on her own.
She was definitely a once in a lifetime companion.
That’s an INSANELY big female. Rotties have that “wait and see” approach.
Tom Davis is doing exactly that - raising a boerboel puppy & filming it
I remember like 15 years ago when my friend was going to buy a Rottweiler and the breeder had both rottweilers and boer boel... the growl that came from the boer boel was insane. felt like it made de ground vibrate. I'm never been scared of dogs but if the boer boel wasn't in a cage I'd shit my pants.
Your Sequioa could have a timing belt or chain depending on the the year. The same years can have either or depending on the engine size 4.7 liter vs 5.7. 2009 5.7 has a timing chain which is lubed by oil and frequent oil changes are best defense against premature wear. If it's a 5.7 liter it's possible that a tensioner is stuck, which is what pushes the timing chain guide into the chain to remove slack. This slack could be what you're hearing as knocking. Could be as simple as swithcing to a thick viscosity oil 5w30 to quiet it down if that's in fact what is causing the sound. If it in any case the chain breaks (which doesn't happen often ) or the belt depending on year of vehicle it's pretty much bye bye engine. Both are pretty involved jobs and some other things my need replaced while in the front of the engine but it's much cheaper than a new vehicle. If you were at a dealership they were probably just trying to sell ya a new one with that bs about it not going back together right. You either have a payment on a car note or a periodic payment(s) for regular maintenance is the way I look at it.
Thanks bro, totally makes sense
all i need is my shih tsu mix to alert me to dangers heck this dog scared off a full grown bear and her cubs on trash night. btw the other mixes are besenji, yorkie, and mini poodle. for those who dont know shih tsus were bred in tibet to be watch dogs. they alert to sounds and the other dogs and owners deal with the situation. the besenji is very wary of new people and new sounds and just like the poodle and yorkie they can be very territorial. my dog has a bark that can wake the dead and if you didnt know any better you would think he was going to lunge and bite. he also doesnt take his eyes off new people until he gets to know them and wont even take a treat.
My Shih Tzu was great at letting me know who wasn't good when out on walks and was fearless. The only issue was his size and the breed has so many health issues. He was very intelligent. I had to put him down on Jànuary 5. Too bad the 80 lb. Tibetan dogs are rare.
Yes my Cane Corso is amazing. The key is to socialisation from a very young age.
Anatolian shepherd
I have a 13 yo female GSD that would still scare the tish out of someone. She has put herself between and strangers many times. My other one is a 5 yo giant Pit/Husky/Rottie mix that is scary behind a door. Not sure he would actually do anything.
What I did with my 2 GSD mixes is not immediately stop them barking at things out windows, a the door and my chain link fence that has an alley behind it. If I hear “that tone” for longer than a minute I will look if I decide it’s safe I say enough, they come and I praise them. When I am not home I can imagine how long they go off. The deterrence is huge my AussieGSD has scared off a burglar so bad they didn’t even close my gate. My neighbor put her back in the yard.
Don’t mess with my intact chihuahua , he’s very bold and my Rotties got his back.
Intact Chihuahua! 🤣
I wnjoyed the whole video and topics.
1:24:00... How to get them to be more protective... show fear
1:35:30...Boerbel or big Doberman...
If I'm ill and stay in bed with a cold, my male labrador acts up and tries to take charge when my partner takes him out for a walk. He's VERY aware of his responsibilities and position in the household.
My German Shepard and Malinois mix are excellent surveyors and protectors. Thank you guys for your information and knowledge.
I have 3 GSD. Two of them bark at the front door, the other one stays nearby the back door … nobody getting in unnoticed … have to quit telling people they don’t harm humans. But: we never tried to find out wether they would protect biting wise. The problem over here: if the dogs bites someone even in the house, I could be charged … that’s different in the US
Yes. I have a Rottweiler. I have him trained to defend my family.
My gsd are amazing however I must say the Dogue De Bordeaux is amazing! Relaxed yet will defend with their life! Nobody ever mentions them !! I totally agree with your choices and the ddb is great so long as they are awake! We had trespasser dog ran them off the yard and cornered them no training !! This is an excellent video and very accurate! I take my gsd everywhere ! The people out here are crazy! Walked my gsd there was a nut sitting on the street that dog kept eyes locked and walked backward until out of sight watching!! Two min later sees a couple no action dogs know!!! A great show!

Yes please do a course on new dog owners coaching for a protection/guard dog!
I agree you absolutely need a protection dog but you need to also protect yourself and your family when you don’t have your dog. I know CA is horrible with this but all I’ll say is 2A. Protect yourself and your family. We just got a female German Shepard Puppy that we are bringing up for protection and also to help train other dogs (I just got the Beckham training program). The world is a scary place. Stay safe. LOVE your content.
I know many will not agree but dogs are not very valuable as protection from dangerous people, beyond barking to alert their owners or perhaps against petty theft because low level criminals may look for easier targets, but even smaller dogs can help with this.
I have 2 pit bulls,,have had many dobies and a Rottweiler. While my dobie and rottie(in that order) would have DIED protecting my life,I'm realistic in the fact that the only protection value my pits have is the fear factor. An intruder will see them(200 combined pounds)and hesitate,maybe think twice. Giving me time to flip the safety on my glock🤣
Every woman should have a protection dog ! And if you don’t want you can adopt a big big dog it can also scare the predator and also all the big dogs that I saw that were adopted were extremely loyal and they will protect you ❤
Staffordshire terriers will hold the door open for a burglars
funny thing about car companies here in peru is that not only will you see toyota and hyundai cars and trucks but also hyundai and toyota cellphones. they even have toyota motorcycles here.
A Cane Corso is alot of work in all other areas BUT guarding comes natural to them so you never have to teach them that or worry about someone breaking in or harming you. I would say it’s the best guard dog but it takes a very specific person to raise them properly. ❤️
I would say that one should put the same effort in a rottweiler as in a Corso. Here in Sweden I see many out of control rottweilers. So I actually disagree om the point that rottweilers are easier to raise.
My Malinois, RIOT will destroy a grown man in seconds. He is highly trained to protect. 73 pounds. Malinois are not for 90 percent of the population. They require a lot of work, but worth every moment. Not the size of the dog, it's about the size of the fight in the dog. Malinois are pound for pound the ultimate warrior. When trained correctly, they are unbeatable. Speed, intelligence, bite, power. Malinois or Dobermans, you can't beat them for protection and obedience. Let's not forget loyalty.
The psychotic look of a maligator snapping its chops and panting would be enough to scare me away. I would definitely fear them more.
Hi Joel! My so.n has 7 daughters and he has a Malinois. He is for protection. I and my household has the littermate. Li e going with her on errand runs. It takes the opportunity out of opportunistic crime.

Joel, you should review North Caucasian Volkodav. That's a top dog for people with yard.
I drive a Jeep wrangler with a Bouvier de Flanders and I’m a bad ass….
Komondor might look like a mop on the internet, but at 175 lbs and teeth, they will F you up. They aren't calm and passive like a Newfie,. They are mentally super protective, probably too aggessive for most. Like a Caucasian Shepherd
Czechoslovakian Vlcak, he’s extremely protective as well as warm to people once they are around 5 minutes. 👍🏻
The best protection dog for a single female person is a male unneutered Rhodesian Ridgeback.
110 lb gsd was great on working horse farm - great with clients, visitors while great with kids in yard when strangers (shifty) would drive up. Only issue I had to put him in the house while playing squirt guns with kids, or kids playing with friends yelling and screaming (would go into protection mode-even against my hubby). Walking on leash in public flawless, would stay on property without fences. Scared the ups driver a few times, but he never went into protection mode with them-he was very discerning.
On 2 occasions -neighbors house 1/2 mile away-shifty guys drive up. Gsd went into mode immediately-guys left (once they were obviously looking to rob home). Female alone in county with kids he was priceless.
F150 with black gsd
I have said it for years that the primary protection training a Rottie needs is to learn the command to disengage. The rest comes naturally.
That’s awesome about Prince going into guard mode. I would decoy for Prince any day. Let me know if you would train together.
I would like you to watch this video. I'm only concerned about the handling of this dog and its training. Dies this type of training need to be reinforced regularly to keep the dog sharp,and on point?
