What breeds of dog can you have fingertip control over, most i want one for schutzhund?

What guard dogs/ personal protection dogs are the most obedient and you can have fingertip control of? I want to do shutzhund mostly so what breeds are really good for that sport? I was thinking Doberman, Rottweiler, Belgian malinois, Belgian Tervuren?, German Shepherd, or possibly a OFRN APBT? What dog breeds do you think are best for this sport? Which one of these breeds would be good for schutzhund?

All can be great, but it’s based on how well you train them. Based on your answers about dogs, I don’t think you should get ANY of these hard headed breeds. In ALL of your answers, you pick hard headed and generally dominant breeds for the dog that you plan on getting (and it changes every time), but in your answers about training, you suggest bully-based training, and basically think every dog should be handled like you’re Cesar Millan. Dogs should not be trained like how you say, and if you do that with one of the breeds you mentioned, your dog will turn into a terror and WILL become aggressive. Please, don’t get a dog if that’s how you plan on training your dog.

    Any of them can be used for the sport. Its a matter of training and temperament.

  2. fingertip control is mostly a function of the TRAINER – their work, effort, timing & communication ability. to be honest the difference in individual dogs bidability will be greater than any difference in the breeds named.

  3. Breed matters little- it’s trainability.
