The Beauceron

A beautiful and rustic appearing dog to those who know
and love them,
formidable appearing to those who don't.

These highly intelligent dogs from France are also commonly known as
the French Shepherd,
Berger de Beauce, or Bas Rouge (Red Stocking)
and have a long rich history.

Ownership consideration:

This breed is probably not for the faint at heart, although easy to have
in the home they need to be guaranteed regular vigorous exercise or
as with any breed can become destructive.
Some form of formal obedience or social activity is highly
recommended.
Early socialization is a must. For those who have ventured into the
wonderful world of the beauceron the rewards are numerous and the
loyalty shown is truly immense.

Although under the heading of herding breed,
these wonderful dogs can master a multitude of task including but not
limited to
Police Dog, Sport Dog, SAR, Service dog, Agility competitor and most
importantly
a loyal family protector and friend.

A brief overview of the standard

"A strong dog, but without heaviness"... Average height 27" and
often weighing near 100lbs.

The beauceron is a working dog which must give the impression of
strength, freedom of movement, and liveliness.
Must have the look of an athlete.

Having some fun on the haystack they think the higher
the better and the more the merrier!
Zesty is the natural ear, Shady is lying on the ground because she got tired of
getting pushed off by Arac<LOL>
Angie is hard to get to sit still and that's her and Arac jumping off together
and of course, can't forget Ticker the Rat Terrier that has to be in the middle of it all!!
