If you want a breed that will be a constant guard for your children, the Malinois is perfect. Especially the females.

You can also kiss the grass in your backyard goodbye and resign yourself to having a mud pit for a backyard. 😀

They are one of the most trainable breeds. As pups, they may do a lot of that kind of destruction, but they can be trained out of it. I have watched a pup destroy a full sofa to kindling before.

The sad part is these dogs used in police work cannot be 'retired' easily because of their training, and most times have to be used until they are too old to be of service, then put down.
