If I ever got a "guard" breed, there's a good chance that it would be a Giant Schnauzer. They seem like great all around dogs, I love the Schnauzer appearance and they don't shed. I think a solid black one with cropped ears makes a formidable dog that few people would want to mess with. Plus they're naturally watch dogs and protective. I know I would feel safer with one around. I also like that they're a breed you don't see a lot. I would personally get a female because they're a little smaller and I think they do better with dogs of the opposite sex.
The only Giant that I ever met was kind of a jerk, but he was an unneutered male. So this thread is interesting to me too and I hope people have more info on them!
