The Beauceron is a French herding dog with a short coat. They are typical of any other farm dog, serving a variety of roles, from herding livestock to protecting their family and property.
Renowned for its protective nature, the Beauceron is a huge dog that weighs between 70 and 110 pounds. Only a relatively few dog owners will be able to cope with their athleticism, agility, and versatility.
It is not a good idea for a first-time dog owner to own a Beauceron. They are intelligent, forceful, and self-reliant in their own right, some owners would say tremendously stubborn. If he needs to protect his family, he's got the size and strength to do so comfortably.
When it comes to training and socialization, he needs a firm hand. For the first three years of his life, they retain their puppylike behavior.
Beauceron Personality
Beaucerons are generally self-assured, intelligent, determined, and watchful canines. As a result, they tend to be reserved among those not part of their immediate family or territory.
They are quick learners but also prone to acting on their own. The Beauceron, despite its confidence, should never be aggressive. They are kind, but he's rarely will they back down.
The Beauceron is a steadfast defender of his family. When they grow up around kids, they can be terrific companions for them. Keep in mind they are a herding breed; therefore, they may chase or nip the heels of children.
Behavior like this should be controlled and trained out of the dog. Beaucerons would do best in an adult-oriented household with children who know how to treat them respectfully.
Beaucerons are tireless dogs. If you are an energetic person or family who enjoys jogging, bicycling, and hiking with your dog, then you won't go far wrong with a Beauceron.
Just about any canine sport will suit them: agility and flyball are just two examples. These dogs are also great candidates for tracking and search and rescue. Beaucerons that are bored will develop some unpleasant behavioral issues.
Beauceron Training & Socialization
To maximize a Beauceron's intelligence, speedy learning abilities, and determination, begin socialization and training as early as possible. Praise and food treat rewards are all examples of positive reinforcement tactics.
Beaucerons tend to think for themselves, and you will need to have this in the forefront of your mind during training sessions. When you ask them to do something, be prepared for pushback to see whether you mean what you say.
It would help if you were forceful, fair, and consistent to be effective. Don't employ force or raise your voice on any dog, but never a Beauceron.
Immediately you bring a puppy home, begin training them. As long as you teach them, They're like a sponge and will soak up your training from just eight weeks old! Waiting till they are several months old before you begin training means you'll have a more stubborn dog to contend with.
If at all possible, enroll him in puppy kindergarten classes by the time he's 10 to 12 weeks old so that he can be exposed to as many people, dogs, sights, and sounds as possible while still a puppy.
Beauceron Grooming
Due to the Beauceron's short, double coat, grooming him is a breeze. A light shampoo and a bath every three to four months are all that is required. To keep their smooth coats free of dead hair, use a natural bristle brush or a rubber hound mitt a few times a week.
The Beauceron sheds a little, but it sheds a lot more in spring and fall. Brushing them more frequently throughout the shedding season will help keep the amount of loose hair in your home under control.
Beauceron Health
Dermatomyositis, an inflammation of the skin, muscles, and blood vessels, has been found in Beauceron dogs. Allergies can also be an issue in the Beauceron. Gastric torsion (bloat) is another possibility.
Try to choose a breeder that participates in the Canine Health Information Center. Before a breeder can be CHIC certified, they must submit heart and hip testing from the OFA (Orthopedic Foundation for Animals) and eye tests from CERF (Canine Eye Registration Foundation).
Conclusion
The Beauceron is a powerful, independent thinking dog, not first-time or casual dog owners. They can make fantastic family companions if the owners fully appreciate and understand the needs of the dog.
