From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.

Guard Dog (Japanese: ばんけん Guard Dog) is an Ability introduced in Generation IX.

Effect

In battle

This Ability prevents other Pokémon from forcing the Pokémon with this Ability to switch out or flee with a move (e.g. Roar, Circle Throw, etc.) or item (Red Card). Guard Dog does not affect the Pokémon switching out manually, or switching out or fleeing with its own move (e.g. Baton Pass, Teleport, etc.) or item (Eject Button and Eject Pack).

Additionally, if a Pokémon with this ability is affected by Intimidate, its Attack stat will increase by one stage, rather than decreasing by one stage.

Outside of battle

Guard Dog has no effect outside of battle.
