Misgav Dov (Hebrew: מִשְׂגַּב דֹּב, lit. Dov's Fortress) is a moshav in south-central Israel. Located near Gedera in the coastal plain, it falls under the jurisdiction of Gederot Regional Council. In 2015 it had a population of 666.
The moshav was founded by Herut members from Haifa in 1950 and was named after Dov Gruner, a member of the Irgun. Immigrants to Israel from Russia and Iraq later joined the community. The supporting organization was Mishkei Herut Beitar (Hebrew: משקי חרות בית"ר).
