The beast - doberman etc always caged in the day. No interaction from guests. Ferocious human haters. They will roam the yards at night and generally patrol.
If the point of this dog is to attack humans, or if that is incidental and it’s not trained to NOT do that, it should be destroyed. It’s effectively a sentient weapon that will attack people.
There are trained guard dogs and watch dogs. Watch dogs alert people and guard dogs to intruders. Guard dogs warn off intruders and can be trained to attack if a resident is attacked. The latter is much more problematic and liable for lawsuits but what you described is a walking Wrongful Death lawsuit waiting to happen. Trespassing laws (in the US) don’t allow lethal force. Even Castle Law usually requires an intruder to be offering violence.
I hear you and agree in a perfect world they shouldn’t exist, but…
Firstly the key word here is remote. Noone has any reason to be going to these locations unless invited especially at night.
Secondly they are up against pikeys and gangs who will kill them without a second thought so they need to be as hard as.
Thirdly, and obv can’t prove this but yeah they are trained that way with violence from their owner who beats them back to their cages each day if they are still out.
As for the trespassing laws etc, then the dog just gets put down and farmer absolved of guilt with the dog having done its job he trains another.
Nasty business all round frankly.

Well, yes, that’s the point. But not specifically people, but any animal coming into the territory, like wolves, coyotes, or foxes, that might kill livestock.
