Beaucerons: Frequently Asked Questions
Who wrote this web site?
Let me introduce myself.
Are you a breeder? I'd love to buy one of your puppies.
No, I train and show in obedience and agility, and I write books about dogs. For information on finding Beauceron breeders and puppies for sale, and buying Beauceron puppies, visit A Beauceron For You.
I'm bringing home my puppy next week. Which pages should I read first on your web site?
- Beauceron Health, which includes a natural health care program and advice on feeding, vaccinations, health problems, and choosing the right vet.
- Training Beaucerons, which includes respect training, housebreaking, and socializing with strangers.
Congratulations on your new baby!
What kind of personality does the Beauceron have? The good points and the bad points?
Beauceron Review will give you a terrific introduction to Beauceron personality and temperament. What's good about 'em...what's bad about 'em.
There is an adorable Beauceron puppy at the pet shop. The store manager assures me they only buy from good breeders. Could this be true?
Absolutely not. There are no good breeders -- none -- who would ever place one of their puppies in a pet shop. Visit Beaucerons in Pet Shops
Do you recommend male puppies or female puppies?
There are advantages and disadvantages to each! Visit Males versus Females.
How can I pick the best Beauceron puppy from a whole litter?
You can do personality tests with Beauceron puppies, and also physical exams. Visit Choosing Beauceron Puppies.
My Beauceron barks too much (or chews my belongings, runs away when I call her, etc.). What can I do to stop these behavior problems?
Most behavior problems stem from either miscommunication (you may not have clearly gotten across to him exactly what you expect) or disrespect (he may be deliberately ignoring your wishes). Visit Respect Training Program.
I want to train my Beauceron puppy to really understand what I say.

Help! My Beauceron still isn't housebroken!
Visit Housebreaking Your Beauceron. You will need to go back to the beginning -- into a pen or crate. No more freedom in the house until your new housetraining takes effect.
What is the best dog food I can buy for my Beauceron?
Real food! Visit The Best Food For Your Beauceron.
Which shots does my dog need?
Many vets are not giving their clients the latest information on booster shots. Visit Vaccinations...Needed or Not?
My vet doesn't agree with some of the things you've written about health care.
That's not surprising. There are two veterinary organizations in the United States. They disagree on the most important canine issues such as feeding, vaccinations, and dental care. Your vet no doubt belongs to the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA). The health information on my web site comes from vets who belong to the American HOLISTIC Veterinary Medical Association (AHVMA). Visit The Right Vet For Your Beauceron for more information on the crucial differences between these two organizations.
I have a web site about Beaucerons and I'd like to add your link to my site.
Sure! Visit Beauceron Links. And thank you!
