Wow! This is the first time i'll be reading this. The Caucasian shepherds I know are super friendly and can eat a whole house. Samoyed and Lhasa Apo are more aggressive. C-Shepherds are just big for nothing and for decoration if you ask me.

Dukeolumidemans:


How do u mean pls? Because I am admiring the dog.

newjosboy:


If you want to see how these dogs sprint like they have springs in their legs, watch the movie, Resident Evil

Doberman and gsd no be mates abeg. The only thing is that gsds are more popular and too common though most of them are fake. Get a good dobbie and have rest of mind. They r.far better than gsds in everything.

mhd5757:

But I take it you are saving up to get one ba?

2. Boarboels

The breed originally bred to fight off lions and guard home and farms. These breeds are very large, muscular and intimidating. They bark when necessary and not unnecessarily. They are easy to train and maintain. If you get a boarboel to guard your compound, you have no worries.

My love for my ozil..

mhd5757:

When it comes to aggressiveness sometimes it depends on the character of the dog rather than the breed. I have seen a vicious terrier and I have seen a few friendly, playful gsds.

mhd5757:

Some people say Pitbulls don't make good guard dogs but they are wrong because a pitbull will even go that extra Mile and mule an intruder.
Maybe it's because of the extra Mile it goes that makes them conclude that they are not good guard dogs. A perfect guard dog to them is probably a dog that will just stand there and be barking, even if somebody is beating you they will just stand there like one mumu and be barking.

AryaSand:


You're right though. I know a playful BoerBoel too. She jumps on everyone with all that weight, licking and wagging her tiny full stop tail.

Nigerians Homes and you’re mentioning Doberman pinscher, you obviously didn’t make enough research’s, German shepherds should top the list followed closely by rotts then boerboels, and WTTF is French mastiff doing on the list

German Shepherd Dog AKA Alsatian, AKA Police Dog should be banished from Nigeria for good

My GSD Puppy is the most destructive Dog i have ever seen in my entire FULL Life.

I can boldly remember the movie Child's Play=====Chucky. That's how bad my dog is

It doesn't eat rice,beans,yam,egg,etc. It doesn't eat its own canned food, or its own dry food, It drinks only milk,I mean ONLY PEAK MILK and Golden Morn, i buy the 900g average size and it finishes in 4days

Now, it destroys anything inside the house, from my PS4 Pad to the remote control, from all my socks to my boxers in the room

I kept her out in a cage and it ate the wood while crying mostly at night and you have no option to bring it inside(and d destruction continues)

She barks at will, she barks when happy, it barks when sad, it barks when hungry, infact if it wants to poopoo or fart it will bark, like seriously which dog barks at it's own mess

She chases anything without fear, Including me the owner ( On one fateful night i was drunk)

The yeye dog is only 2months, i wonder what will become of it when she's about 9month old

NB: It has once attempted to swallow my car key and it peed directly inside the cup of my last liquor i was sipping at home around 11PM

Caucasians are very aggressive sir , and aren't good with kids .

Bizibi:
real gsd are very good,I've owned real German sherperd,one can't see the pure breeds again.

INDUSTRIALFAN:
op did not say most popular dogs. Op said dogs that are beat for guarding homes in Nigeria. By that the OP is saying these are digs you should get if you really want your home guarded. Of course German shepherds are rampant in Nigeria because they are easy to find.

chiboy1116:
eh!!!!!? If ur Caucasian is lazy Nd just big pls call the seller Nd return d dog , dude gave u a big mongrel ....bit seriously Caucasians are a most aggressive dogs . They are used in farms to protect cattles from bears ,hyenas,cougarsetc, that's how badass they are Samoyed are pet dogs , hope ur no joking oh...lolx.

French mastiff for example is not common in Nigeria so where is the result sourced from?

rumenase:

rumenase:


Caucasian can be good with kids.

rumenase:


most people just feed and fatten them up without really working hence they end up fat, big and lazy

CaptainMitch:
