Dogs are just magical creatures that can always put a smile on our faces. … With their big, sparkly eyes; soft fur and big, floppy ears, and a boopy, squeaky nose, dogs simply look too cute to resist. They are also affectionate, loyal, and friendly companions that anyone would love to have, despite all the clumsy and foolish moments. However, let’s not forget that they can also be protective and aggressive in some cases. Therefore, to ward off unwanted strangers and protect passengers, many people will put on a “Beware of the dog” sign in unfortunate accidents.
These warnings work effectively at times, but there are also times when these menacing signs don’t do justice to the dogs, cause they are just exuberant, friendly fellas wagging their tails at you. Here are 30 photos of the ‘guard dogs’ that you might want to come and give them a head pat. Scroll down and upvote for the most ‘dangerously cute’ guard!

#1 Oh yes… ‘BEWARE’…
Dogs were first used as a means of protection by the ancient Greeks, Babylonians, and Assyrians. Since then, humans have bred dogs particularly for the purpose of guarding. German Shepherds were designated the first "watchdogs" in 1899, and they continue to be such today. This breed was first used by police departments and the military around the turn of the twentieth century.

So, how effective are these security dogs? They can, in fact, provide a formidable defense even if they are not assaulting. According to reports, 65 percent of convicted criminals said that the sight of a massive, imposing animal would be enough to scare them away. This demonstrates how having a well-trained guard dog may add an extra layer of security to your home.
#3 “That’s the dog they used to have. I ran him off.”
Because there isn't just one type of "guard dog" it's crucial to consider your requirements while choosing the ideal canine companion. There are different types of guard dogs, such as watchdogs, guard dogs, protection dogs, and livestock guard dogs. When directed, guard dog breeds are trained to pin down any perceived threat.
Doberman Pinscher, German Shepherd, Rottweiler, and American Pit Bull Terrier are among breeds called "Kill Dogs". A "guard dog" bite can weigh up to 750 pounds of pressure and shred both muscles and tendons in a single bite, which explains where they got the name from. When it comes to strangers, they are hostile, but they are actually very soft and affectionate with their owners.
#4 Very risky
Watchdogs, unlike guard dogs, are not taught to attack intruders, but rather to notify their owners of any unusual activity on their property. They are threatening even when they are not attacking, as their warnings can include terrifying snarls. These dogs are good for families due to their non-aggressive nature. Watch dog breeds include: Cairn Terrier, Akita, Schipperke, Miniature Pinscher and Airedale Terrier
#5 Seriously. She’s super scary.
Protection dogs and livestock guard dogs are breeds that blend characteristics from several different types. Protection dogs are a cross between guard dogs and watchdogs. They can be taught to attack intruders, but it is only when they feel threatened. Great Dane and Giant Schnauzer are examples of protection dog breeds.
#6 Dear Mailperson, I think there’s a mean dog somewhere in this yard because the sign says BEWARE but I haven’t seen them yet. So feel free to leave the pet treats Dad ordered with me. Yours truly, Brooklyn
On the other hand, livestock guard dogs can be trained to carry out the tasks of all three groups. These dogs are perfect for households living in rural locations because they are alert, observant, and intelligent. They need spacious areas because of their huge physique. Anatolian Shepherd, Estrela Mountain Dog, and Komondor are examples of livestock guard dog breeds.
