No it was not. Guard Dog and Gate Keeper are both figures of speech. It means he is over protective.

I can't wait for folks to come out and tell me I am calling him a dog again. For those of your that do not love dogs, as we Yanks do, when JJ said if he was a dog, he'd be a Peanutbutter Lab, he just describes himself as a sweet and loving spirit, not a actual dog. That is why I teased him back about being a Junkyard dog (look it up). Again, not calling him an actual dog. And after the great extent I have gone to clarify what I meant, if you or anyone else still thinks I called him an actual dog (canine), then it is on you and not me. > faithfully preventing their despoilage by those would seek to degrade or > otherwise damage them.
