One of our favorite rarer and very old breeds, dating back to the early 1500’s.
We love and work with all breeds and hybrids. Having behavioral issues? Want a well mannered but still a fun loving companion? Reach out, we can make it happen!

The Beauceron, also known as the Berger de Beauce or the Bas Rouge, is a French shepherd dog whose name is derived from the vast agricultural region southwest of Paris. Since its development in the late Middle Ages, the Beauceron has played many roles: soldier, bodyguard, rescuer, competitor, companion, prankster, and peerless mover of livestock. Along the way, the breed has won hearts on both sides of the Atlantic, as much for its endearing personality as for its multifaceted working ability.🐾

Tonight’s the night that a lot can happen. While we celebrate our freedom on this Independence Day- please do so respectfully and responsibly. Never shoot off fireworks over someone else’s home/yard or over/near a farm and farm animals.

As for our 4 legged canine friends, here are some suggestions to help them with this evening’s festivities.

1) If you are heading out to enjoy the festivities, please kennel your pet while you are away. A kennel is not a punishment, it is a safe space where your pup can feel secure and decompress.
2) Play games. If your dog goes nuts for fetch, play ball in your fenced back yard during festivities. If you’re worried about them fleeing- put them on a long line so you have influence. 
3) Training time. While the festivities get underway, you can put your pup on leash and practice obedience drills. This will take their mind off the noise and help them learn to focus on you. Reward their focus on you!!
4) Keep them with you…if you have a fence jumper- keep them with you on leash this evening.
5) Kennel time: if you can’t keep them with you and you are busy, put them in the kennel where they feel safe and secure. We recommend putting in a high-value treat such as a good bone that they can enjoy while chillin in the kennel.

Wishing everyone a safe, healthy, happy 4th of July from all of us at ECK9!
