From what i know, you have train them to be a guard (Requires lots of patience) Hope this helped!
Well if you get a puppy you can train the puppy to be a good guard dog. Most boxers are not timid but it depends on the environment they grew up in.
The cost of a guard dog depends on the breed, the type of training attained and the costof insurance. I would like to suggest your about AtozPetcare.com
Umm... depending on how you train your dog has a BIG impact on weather it can guard chickens or not. We taught mine to hunt or kill small animals such as chickens so my dog couldn't possible guard chicken without eating them. But if you train your dog to guard chickens he could guard them but there is a small possibility that it may eat the chickens since that is what it was initially bred for.
Probably the best guard dog is a Doberman Pinscher. They are very alert and active, and they are loyal to you as long as you train them well. They will do just fine with kids, but that is if it grows up with them . Children also need to be trained to respect the dog, because it is annoying and very painful to have one's tail pulled by a unrespectful child. Dobermans will not even tolerate it at all. If you manage to train it succesfully, then it would make a great guard dog and a companion as well.
If it is a guard dog it guards property, that is useful.
How to Train a Dog was created in 1936.
Well, it's hard to choose because some German Shepherds and Doberman Pinschers can be friendly and not attack thieves. You must get the dog when its young so you can teach it, but if you get a dog that is older than a year, it is much harder to train it because it won't listen to you anymore. So get a young dog and train it. But if you want a dog to learn how to guard real fast, then get a German Shepherd because they are smarter.
You want your Pit to react aggressively? This really isn't a good idea. The only truly safe way to have a guard dog is to teach him to control his bite. This means training him in schutzhund or something similar.

A guard dog guards everything behind your fence or in your house, a protection dog will protect you outside your property, a watch dog will give alarm when someone enters your property. A rottweiler is an ideal guard dog.
If you buy a dog house, the dog will not use it until you train it to go in the dog house.
