    Beauceron

    The Beauceron is native to Northern France where they were originally bred as herding and guarding dogs. They are handsome large dogs that over time have proved themselves to be a great choice not only as working dogs but as companions and family pets too. Beaucerons are extremely intelligent and high energy characters and therefore need to be given the right amount of daily exercise combined with as much mental stimulation as possible for them to be truly happy well-rounded dogs.
