Do they make good watch/guard dogs?
While they do have a natural herding instinct, Queenslands are loving, devoted pets and very reliable watchdogs. They tend to be extremely loyal, protective family and watch dogs, and use discretion. In our experience, they bond strongest to one person, but will love and protect the entire family. They can sense your emotions and can discern when a person is sick or weak, and will treat that person more delicately. They tend to be especially careful and protective in those situations.
