Going into your neighbor's yard is a death wish. The milkman, the mailman, even the Kid Hero who lost his Frisbee disc doesn't want to go in there, because the Cranky Neighbor or the Retired Monster has an Angry Guard Dog to prevent anyone from foiling his Evil Plan. Most of the bigger breeds of dog have been used for security jobs, especially Dobermans, Rottweilers, and German Shepherds. You also have different types of dogs that are supposed to guard whatever, such as a watchdog (who is simply required to bark, so even Mister Muffykins would do), a guard dog (who merely has to look imposing, like a Mastiff) and an attack dog (who has to be athletic and very trainable). Your stereotypical Angry Guard Dog, on the other hand, is all three. It looks intimidating, and if you enter its territory it will bark, but only on the way to mauling you. This dog's bite is every bit as bad as its bark. And since dogs are dangerous predators that will crush your bones, thus they are a perfect pet for a Card-Carrying Villain. Ironically, few Angry Guard Dogs are pitbulls. This has less to do with emulating realism and dodging current stereotypes than with indicating the old age of this trope. Bull terriers were highly regarded during the World War II era, and considering current media trends, no one wants to really highlight them in an opinionated way. And strangely enough, while bulldogs tend to be used in media for this trope, they tend to be one of the worst suited breeds for guard dogs in real life, due to their amiable disposition and poor athletic ability. A pack of these (usually three or more, and usually feral dogs) is standard issue for any scrapyard or vehicle impound lot, while any Supervillain Lair worth its salt will have them chained up and ready for the Big Bad to snarl "release the hounds". Nowadays, the trope is mostly found in cartoons. They occasionally subvert it, showing the dog is a big softie and/or coward if confronted, with the Aesop that a bully's bark is always worse than his bite. However, if its cowardice shows its Undying Loyalty to the villains, the dog is a Dirty Coward instead. See also Right-Hand Attack Dog, Beware of Vicious Dog, Villain Holds the Leash and Hellhound (if a Hellhound is also an Angry Guard Dog... be very, very afraid). Contrast Big Friendly Dog (although this Trope can overlap when their friend is the one they're guarding), Incompetent Guard Animal, Policeman Dog, They Have the Scent!, and Jealous Pet. Neutralized by Scare the Dog. Sometimes named Fluffy. Subtrope of Animal Occupation Stereotypes. |

In It's Me or the Dog, Victory considers overly protective dogs to be counterproductive to home safety (as they're just as likely to menace harmless strangers, causing problems for the owners), so she re-trains these types of dogs to associate guests arriving with something good happening (i.e. delicious treats). | |

Motive: In "Creeping Tom", when the police arrive at the scene of the crime, they find the Body of the Week is guaraded by an angry guard dog that barks at anyone who tries to approach the body. Later Angie realises that that while the dog barked at all the police, it did not bark when the intruder was in the house, meaning it was someone the dog knew and trusted. | |

In the Amazing Stories episode "Family Dog", after the dog twice fails to protect the house from burglars (he was ill the first time, got locked out by the burglars the second (, the father takes him to guard dog school. The father is unimpressed when he returns for him and the dog is as happy-go-lucky as ever. . . until the instructor snaps her fingers and the dog instantly turns into a snarling, barking beast. It pays off when the burglars return again, but works too well when he attacks the father (trying to get in after accidentally locking himself out). | |

In the Discworld novel Going Postal, when Moist von Lipwig is undergoing initiation into a secret society of postmen, part of the training is to get past some of these (a natural enemy of postmen everywhere). Concluding that they are Lipwigzers, a very popular guarding breed hailing from his hometown, he briefly dominates them by giving them commands in a stern voice. Played for Laughs after the dogs are led out, and Moist finds out they were whelped and raised in the city, so his commands in Uberwaldian should not have worked. Seems Moist is just that good of a Con Man. | |

Subverted with the "Kennel from Hell" match during WWE's Unforgiven 1999. The idea was a steel cage match inside Hell in a Cell, where the inner cage was surrounded by vicious Rottweilers. Turns out the dogs weren't so vicious, as they spent more time peeing and crapping on the floor and mating with each other than actually intimidating the wrestlers. The wrestlers were more in danger of slipping on the dogs' mess than being torn apart by them. | |

The Dark Knight: First bandits, then the Joker, sic angry dogs at Batman and even Bats has quite some trouble fending them off. They're big dogs however (Rottweilers), and in the second instance the Joker has probably made them even more vicious than they already were under the Chechen's ownership (feeding them human meat, among other things, though it seems likely that their dietary habits started with the Chechen given his introduction for them). | |

One-Punch Man: On the heroes' side, this is the gimmick of Watchdog Man. Specifically, he's a hero who dresses in a white dog suit and often acts as a dog... Complete with slaughtering any monster stupid enough to appear in the city he has declared his territory. This has the downside that he won't chase enemies out of the city limit, as Garou found out when he thought he could take him on and survived only because he decided to run and managed to cross the city limit, at which point Watchdog Man let him go. On the monsters' side, this is the purpose of Overgrown Rover of the Monster Association, being their guard dog that patrols their base for any intruders. The catch is that Rover is a massive muscled beast with six eyes, massive jaws, enough firepower to blast through the entire underground base and cause earthquakes, tough enough to tank attacks from everyone that isn't Saitama or Awakened Garou, and is considered a Dragon-class level Monster (as in, the same rank as the strongest members of the Monster Association). |

The Sandlot has a subversion in "The Beast," a Mastiff that is shown to have a collection of balls that kids have knocked into its domain and given up for lost. A good chunk of the movie revolves around the kids various efforts to get back a ball signed by Babe Ruth that went into its yard. It turns out at the end of the movie that The Beast is actually a nice dog. He just doesn't like to give up stuff that it finds in the yard unless his owner tells him to. | |

In Fantozzi (both book and movie adaptation) Fantozzi is invited to a ball in a villa, but has trouble with the countess' guard dog, a huge and menacing Great Dane called Friedman (Ivan the Terrible the 32nd in the movie) who threatens him and his friend and tries to bury Fantozzi alive in the garden. In the book he even waits for them outside the house, forcing them to stay longer than expected. In both media, it ends up chasing Fantozzi's car all the way home and laying siege to the parked car for an entire week, forcing Fantozzi to sussist on food delivered by his wife from the balcony using a basket on a rope. | |

Richard Adams' Watership Down plays the trope straight and desperate. The hero rabbits consider calling dogs much like humans might consider using an atomic bomb in a war: it destroys their enemies, but at a heavy price. In this case, they are alerting the dog and the owning farmer that there is a rabbit warren near the farm. Considering the Efrafans are fighting to massacre the Watership Down warren, that was considered the lesser of two evils. | |

In the 1980s Henry Winkler movie Night Shift, the rather nebbish and timid main character is shown to be frequently tormented by a neighbor's dog who relentlessly pursues him through the apartment complex where he lives, barking furiously. It's a sign of Character Development towards the end when he finally gets fed up and bellows "Go home!" as it's bounding towards him... and it slinks away with its tail between its legs. | |

Our Man Flint. When Cramden shows up at Flint's apartment to ask him to Save the World, a German shepherd puts its jaws around his hand and drags Cramden inside Flint's apartment. It then growls menacingly when Cramden offers his hand to Flint, who asks Cramden to lower his hand slowly as the dog is trained to detect hostility and will tear him apart. When Cramden doesn't like Flint, it's quite likely the latter is trolling him. | |

Person of Interest: A neo-Nazi tries to use one to intimidate Reese. Reese explains that the dog only appears angry because it does not respect its current owner who does not know how to handle such a well trained animal properly. Reese, on the other hand worked with this type of guard dog before and knows the Dutch commands it was trained to obey. A few Dutch phrases later Reese has a new dog. Though the dog only obeys commands in Dutch, he certainly understands certain words in English, like "walk", "leash", and "treats". |

At the end of the first Beethoven movie, Dr. Varnick's two goons escape from the dogs chasing them for revenge by jumping over a fence towards a junkyard. Big mistake: turns out the junkyard is guarded by a small pack of very angry Dobermans, who proceed to maul them. This is a Brick Joke to the beginning of the movie, when a punk woman inspects Beethoven as a puppy and asks if he's going to be a good guard dog for her junkyard. | |

The Andromeda Strain mentioned a rather creepy version in passing: vicious guard dogs who had undergone laryngectomies, so they couldn't make any bark. You'd never hear them coming until they were already tearing your throat out. | |

For Survivor Dogs, this is bound to happen in a series starring dogs. The main example is the Fierce Dogs pack, a pack consisting of Dobermans led by the bloodthirsty Blade. They're a group of ex-guard dogs who banded together after their owners fled during an earthquake. Even the White Sheep Storm, who escaped the pack as a puppy, is more aggressive and fight happy than the other dogs in the Wild Pack. | |

In the Pokémon: The Series mini movie "Pikachu and Pichu" and in some other specials, one of the Pichu brothers' enemies is a Houndour. Yes, a Houndour. And that Houndour chases the Pichu brothers many times, and sometimes gets flattened by a Snorlax. One time, the Houndour ended up beating up Meowth after Meowth stepped on the Houndour's head. Houndour in general tend be given this sort of personality in the anime, usually if it's a Lower-Deck Episode focusing on the Pokémon rather than the humans. |

The Bolt Chronicles: In "The Survivor," Petey is vigorously protective of Mittens and his master Darnell when Jack threatens them. He's otherwise shown to be very personable and friendly. In "The Mall," Bolt barks furiously to scare off the manager of Spender's Gifts when the latter tries to capture the lost Mittens and collect the reward for her return. In "The Marching Song," Bolt's protective instincts and righteous anger are forcefully and poetically expressed. |

Guard dogs (implied to be Dobermans or Rottweilers) appear at the prologue of Warrior Cats: A Dangerous Path, brought to a compound by humans to find the pyromaniacs who set the forest on fire in Rising Storm. They prey on pigeons and later cats, killing off several important cats and deforming Brightpaw. This makes the cats especially unsettled as they're usually the top predators in the forest. | |

To give an idea of how hard they can be to control, when some countries put their pilots through their equivalent of Survival, Evasion, Resistance, and Escape training, they sometimes use both their military's guard/tracking dogs and the local Search And Rescue units SAR dogs, allowing them to both train the pilots in evasion and the SAR dogs in tracking. The SAR dogs are almost always allowed off leash to track, and will be happy when they find the pilot, bark to alert their handlers, and be extremely friendly towards their "prey". The military guard dogs are never let off leash for this training, and pilots are often told that, should they have to deal with an actual enemy's military dogs, often the only way to escape one that's found you, aside from shooting them, is to let them bite your arm, lift your arm and the dog up (often rendering that arm useless afterwards), then kill the dog, sacrificing your arm for a chance at escape. And even if you manage that, the enemy soldiers will most likely be close by, have heard the dog, are now on their way to get you, you're down an arm, and the enemy unit on it's way probably contains the dog's handler, who isn't going to be happy that you killed their dog. | |
