Our dog, Hailey, is a great guard dog.
She is very friendly but also incredibly prone to barking. Especially around things she thinks are a threat, or should be eaten. This list includes cats, birds, squirrels, deer, and lately, Amish buggies when we drive through Lancaster. Shetland sheepdogs were bred to herd, so it makes sense that she would want to chase these kinds of things. More information on shelties here. With the return of warmer weather, I've started letting her stand out on the balcony from time to time. She's sure to warn us if she thinks there's something dangerous out there- like a cat or deer. Or both, as seen in this video:
