Looking for Molloser dog

[thelongshoot]

Hello. I have a 2 year old Douge De Bourdeux right now and im moving to a house with a larger garden and lots of fields/hills for walks in local area. Im looking for a second dog and was hoping to get another big fella, although any good breed of dog with protective/guarding instincts would be considered providing the breed and line is one of the best around.

I would absolutley love a Dogo Argentino but the only one breeder in Thailand has now stopped breeding apparently. Another Douge De Bourdeux would be great, but I am not aware of any breeders in Thailand.

English Mastiff would be an option.... Although I understand they are not the best guard dogs around.

In short, Im looking for an excelent guard dog but would prefer something unique. Something that is not very common in Thailand.

Staffordshire Bull Terrier would be great, but cant find a Thai breeder. Same goes for American Bulldog.

Any suggestions appreciated

Best, TLS

Visit 7-11 and get one of the monthly dog magazines.

I see a number of hits for Mastiffs and EBTs on Thai language web-sites, however most are discussing them as other/most expensive breeds. Suggests a small population and so you will likely suffer from flat family trees/blood-lines. Also I understand pups have a high stillbirth rate meaning that they will be unpopular among breeders for money which will be the prime motivation for many Thai breeders.

Is there a reason you seek to get a breed that developed in a part of the world that has an annual average temperature of 17°C?

Guarding is a job of work, I suggest it would be wiser to get something bred for the Thai climate. There are many slim Rottweilers that have developed in Thailand over the years, but again watch for the progeny of cousins.

A guard dog is mostly about a visual deterrent to those that would do bad, getting something exotic will just add a level of confusion to those seeing it.

Training not to eat the tastiest of food dropped in your compound will be the prime task as a poisoned dog is the prelude to burglary or vendetta.

Why import an expensive security guard when a a Thai version is cheaper to obtain, run and rapidly replace?

why not go for a rhodesian or a thai ridgeback? fit the weather, big, workable personalties (well, the rhodie is, not sure about the thai version)... but with the thai ridgeback, u can find good breeders, and its still rare, only certain people have them.).

Thai Ridgebacks are small dogs, about 20 kilo. Plenty of Rottweilers and Pit Bulls available, and the Bordelais would be happy to get a companion with similar brawn.

Bangkaews are medium-sized dogs with big hearts. Bred for the climate, too. An intruder meddles with one at his peril. Even these are very inbred, and you have to be careful what you buy.

Rare dogs from temperate or sub-Arctic zones are really not sensible for this country. They are likely to be inbred, and find it difficult to adapt to the climate. I've come across several St Bernard's here, beautiful but totally inappropriate (not to say cruel to keep them here).
