Hello 👋

I'm asking this for those of you who know about Nordic breeds, particularly Siberian Huskies. I was wondering if, despite their super sweet and friendly nature even with strangers, it's possible to teach them protection work? By that, I mean defending their owner and the house in case of an intruder. Even though my dog is a good 'alarm', I know that if I were ever attacked, he wouldn't actually step in or do anything. I wanted to know if, with the right training or maybe even lessons with a professional dog trainer, it's possible—even though they aren't naturally bred to be guard dogs. 🙄

    No, I think generally Huskies are either too friendly or quite wary of strangers...
