why are they so rare? dont know much about them they are lovely looking dogs. does any1 have one what are they like?
Because the breeders are very careful who they allow to have their puppies. They are not an easy breed & definitely NOT for the fainthearted or inexperienced
I agree, I met one at DD at Crufts a couple of years ago and was really taken by him, his owner said they arent an easy breed and hers had pushed her to the limits many times.
hmm thats really interesting just think they look lovely sort of like a rottie shep x they have one in the film marmaduke would love to see if any1 here owned one
I agree that they are beautiful dogs, I was interested in finding out more about them before I got Luchi, there are not many breeders in this country, and my two emails to a breeder here never received a response. They are very popular in France, were they originate, apparently beauceron and Briard seemed to evolve side by side for some time, were distinguished apart due to coat type. They were bred for the same function. There was a lady who posted up a video of her Beaceron puppy a few months back on Dogsey (think they were in Belgium). Not sure if she has posted since though. Here is the link to the thread, there is a little video. http://www.dogsey.com/showthread.php?p=1995081
