But wouldn’t be an out and out guard dog. The beardie cross thing I had would have nailed an intruder no problem, other crosses I've had wouldn't have batted an eye. My borders have all been useless guards too but the russel would have tried his best to hurt someone. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Back around 2000,I was working as a greenkeeper/pest controller at a local golf club,out in the sticks ,it came with a little cottage,my mate Kevin used to do the night Watchmen job...the owners had 3 ridgebacks,a male and 2 females...tbh they wasn't worth a wank ,bar the 1 bitch Zena...3 years I worked there,and every time I went near the 1 bitch, would have to give the cnut a sausage from the kitchen or a food treat....it was a sly cnut,try and walk past it without the treat,and it would charge and grab youhad a few members and had to be PTS in the end......she used to follow me digging....first time I showed it something in a block end....it couldn't get up there quick enough to bust it up.....did the job on the big ones, had some bite on her Seen a few Ridgeback x bull greys,and they was decent animals TBF...but them pedigree ones are unstable as f**k Quote Link to post Share on other sites
