Last night my friend and I were sitting watching TV when my dogs started barking, I mean really barking!!! It wasn't a prey bark as Ninja had explained the 2 barks in a row and a break.This was a deep serious constant bark.So my friend and I jumped up and looked out the window. Sure enough there were a bunch of people trespassing.( A bit of info....I am living with my friend in town and the apt is above the gun shop that he owns.So there are always punks messing with the place and they have had a few break ins.) So he went down there to see what they were doing(armed of course as this is a conceal carry state) The punks were escorted out of the wash(a ditch that they were walking along on the edge of the property) Who knows what they were thinking of doing. My friend had a new perspective on Zane that he thought was a stupid GSD.He is the one that has extremely good hearing and is the most alert even though he hasn't had any training for protection. He started the barking and the others joined in. As my friend was out rounding up the punks the dogs were quiet but when the punks got a bit closer I alerted them to bark again. Hope that deters the idiots that mess with the place. Gotta love a German Shepherd that naturaly is protective and a stable dog.

Yup, and them being so darn good looking is a definite bonus! We all love a hunky body guard.

Even a dog that is from parents that aren't"proven" as in titled (as far as I know) can be a good dog that is protective and well balanced. I took him from some people that didn't want to take care of him anymore. He was living out in the back yard with limited human interaction but he loves people and naturally knows when someone isn't suppose to be here at a place that we just moved to Easter weekend. When my friend's parents pull up the dogs don't bark.They know they are ok and suppose to be here.If anyone else comes they alert with serious barks but if there are elk in the back they have the prey bark...although Zane has more of a deep loud serious bark with critters.He isn't fond of other animals but loves people when I introduce him to them. I guess that is why I don't only go for dogs that have titled.There are dogs out there that are worth having if you know how to read a dog. Zane has been an asset.

Great alarm system!
My dogs only bark at people when they are in the back yard (with the exception of Lina, who barks at everyone) I wish Galan would bark at people when they come to my door. It won't take much to train him to, as he does bark on command... I have been weary though because the last time I mentioned that I wanted him to bark at people at the door I was told to be careful what I wish for LOL

P.S. Love the picture! Very nice head, in my humble opinion :-)

Thanks Stacy!! I wouldn't e worried about Galan barking at the door as long as you have control to have him stop. If things are ok after my dogs bark I tell them "enough" and they stop barking....well the GS do but the mutt I have has to have the last word.lol(smaller dog syndrome)

LMAO about the smaller dog. One of my chihuahaus is like that with the "last word" . In the past ALL of mine (the ones I bred and raised ) have always been the most incredibly outgoing and friendly chis I have ever seen, and company always tells me how amazed they are by them. BUT...little Jasmine is a turd (not from one of my breedings.)
Even after I shush her, she grumbles... little witch... hahaha! She just doesn't have the confidence my own chis have, I guess.
Usually when company comes if Galan is inside and someone knocks the dufus grabs a toy and brings it to the door.
Sigh.... Yeah you can come and rob me blind, as long as Galan can show you his toys. Heck, as long as they don't try to take any of HIS stuff...If they did they'd better be good at tug-o-war... hehhehe
