K. Volk, Mogilev
“A dog ideal for guarding a private house or apartment should, first of all, be distrustful of strangers, well trained, fully controllable and clearly following commands from the owner,” says pet store owner Anna KOROBOVA. – Dogs of guard and service breeds are most suitable for the role of home guard. These include German Shepherds, Boxers, Cane Corso dogs, Rottweilers, Moscow Watchdogs, Giant Schnauzers, Alabais, and Caucasian Shepherds. The listed large breeds need a spacious booth. An adult dog should stand freely in it and lie comfortably with its paws extended. They also need a lot of space in their enclosure.
The diet of such an animal also differs in composition and volume, and reaches up to 700-1000 grams of dry food per day. Correct calculation of a single serving is extremely important, since overfeeding can lead to obesity, and excess weight, in turn, leads to other serious problems. A large expense item is also associated with the work of a professional dog handler, which is necessary, because a trained and educated pet is a guarantee of peace of mind and a guarantee of your safety.”
