Here are a few photos Ze Best du Regard Mordant (Photo taken when he was 11). We are non longer allowed to crop ears on the continent and he was from the last litter we had that had cropped ears. Ze Best left for the Rainbow bridge a year ago. Here he was 3 years old
He looks like a nice sturdy dog Kate (tho I prefer natural ears) with a lovely expression on his face Can we use the last photo for the main profile please? Or do you others that you prefer that you can put up? (Shame he's not looking more towards the camera, but it gives a good indication of what to expect size-wise) (I will split your photos into a new thread and apply the photo category btw - that will make it easier for me when looking for photos to add to the profile
Oo that second one is lovely can I used that one pleaseeeeeee? They look like (size wise) they are in-between a Dobe and a Rottie - is that what you find Kate?
I suppose they would be in between the two but nearer to the height of a Doberman. The males reach 27 1/2 inches and the females 27 inches at the shoulder. Here is a link to the breed standard in English on the French Beauceron Club Website http://amisdubeauceron.org/standard/standard-anglais.html
Come to Crufts then I will be there. I am comming over with Kúnamara & Dora. There will also be quiet a few Beaucerons on the Thursday (they are being juged in the Import register), Friday I will be helping on the Beauceron Stand in Discover Dogs. Every day there will be a collection of beaucerons on the stand both Black and Tan and Harlequin. Here is a photo of 3 Beaucerons on the Beach at Traeth Mawr, . They belong to Steve & Jackie Barnes Jackie is the Secretary of the UK Beauceron Club.
I might just do that... I'll get a big fat BREEDIA.COM printed on a T-Shirt or sommin (tho I expect they have rules for that sort of thing). Yes please - more photos would be cool! At some point I will put a link on the main profile that links to all photo threads on the forum as well - so even if I can't feature some (we are trying to limit to one photo per dog) then at least all the others will easily be reachable
Ze Best was a STUNNING looking dog. I know cropping ears is an outdated (and often considered cruel) practise, but it really does give the breed a much more alert and switched on look. Beautiful!
