Dogs In The Herding Group

The Briard is a native of France; known for their power and agility.  They also possess an acute sense of hearing making them an excellent guard dog.  The Briard's long lovely coat can be any color but white.  This breed has a long history in France; tapestries depicting the Briard go back to the 8th Century.  The Briard is an independent thinker; so training will require your patience.  The tail of the Briard has a hook at the end known as a crochet; there are also two dewclaws on their rear feet.  The Briard was recognized by the American Kennel Club in 1928.
