Is it permissible to buy a dog for the purpose of guarding?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
We say: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, is it permissible to buy a dog for the purpose of guarding?

Answer:
A dog is not to be sold; its price is forbidden. The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) prohibited the price of a dog. My brother, there are many dogs. Look at the street and take ten; there is no need to dissect. Yes.
