To help you in your choice before buying a protection dog, discover the 6 best breeds to guard you, your family and your home!
THE GERMAN SHEPHERD
The German Shepherd is the dog that comes to mind most frequently when thinking of a protection dog. The French police and military organizations recognize the reliability of the German Shepherd, and most frequently chose the breed to carry out their patrols and missions.
The German Shepherd is as intelligent as he is loving and courageous. This purebred dog remains very imposing, despite its weight, usually between 25 and 40 kg.
However, thanks to its thick and soft coat (which must be brushed very often), the German Shepherd has an impressive build, as well as a developed musculature that leaves no one indifferent.
Athletic and robust, the German Shepherd is also very affectionate by your side.
THE BELGIAN SHEPHERD MAINOIS
Alliance Protection Dogs own Malinois and, we can assure you that these dogs are companions of love and can care for you and your family. Their situational intelligence allows them to adapt to any situation, in your presence but also when you are away.
The Belgian Malinois is the mascot for police forces in many countries around the world. Smaller than German Shepherds, the Belgian Malinois Shepherd has energy and a daily joie de vivre to spread.
They are very affectionate dogs who put their reactivity and vivacity at the service of your protection.
If we had to define the Belgian Malinois in 3 words: reliable, intelligent and tireless.
THE ROTTWEILER
With a powerful physical presence, and a hoarse voice, he is naturally dissuasive for anyone with malicious intentions. This calm dog always shows up for good reasons.

The Doberman Pinscher has a natural distrust of strangers, which enhances their effectiveness as a trained guard dog. He knows how to warn his master in the event of a strange or abnormal event, but also to intervene when his training teaches him.
Dobermans are also excellent, loving and endearing companion dogs who will do whatever they can to defend their families.
THE CANE CORSO
