hey whatsup, im looking for a loyal and easily trainable dog. also a good gaurd dog i have narrowed my choices to either a doberman or a german shepherd. and why?
This topic is locked from further discussion.
German Shepherd because they are easily trainable and look nice and the police use them for a reason
If you can find one, a Kuvasz or a Kuvasz/German Shepherd mix would make a great dog. We had a mix, best dog I've ever had. Extremely intelligent, VERY protective of family members/ the home, and also very affectionate.

Take a look at the "Temperament" section. Describes my last dog PERFECTLY, aside from needing special training or what have you.
That looks remarkably like a great Pyrenees. I have 3 and they're all about as big as you describe. Very loyal as well as intimidating.
The one we had could stand on it's hind legs, put it's paws on my 6'1" grandpa's shoulders and look him in the eyes. Trust me... AT LEAST look for a Kuvasz.

Doberman Pinschers are some of the most elegant creatures on this planet. My buddy owns a gorgeous female named Casey, it's the sweetest cupcake on the planet, but hell no I would not want to piss it off. They are literally the stallions of the dog world. Beautiful creatures.
Sure a shepherd can be more vicious. But the pinscher will get you more poonaner ;)
German Shepherds are bigger and bulkier then the scrawny Doberman.
All the Shep has to do is get the Dobermans face in it huge mouth and it all over.
Doberman's are far from scrawny. They are sleek and slim, but very toned and muscular. Dobermans also have huge mouths and are more naturally aggressive. Not saying the German Shepherds aren't, but I think you are exaggerating it.German Shepherds are bigger and bulkier then the scrawny Doberman.

For instance I have learned never to get a Jack Russell no matter how much I like the one on Frasier. They are hyper little buggers requiring endless attention. Oh wait, I jumped through those hoops before though... :oops: (Id go with German Shepards though, never trusted Dobbies that much, though they look pretty cool in their own way.)
