Beauceron
Beaucerons (70-110 pounds) are confident, intelligent, and protective, best for experienced owners. They’re good with kids when socialized but may be too dominant for toddlers. High energy needs 2+ hours daily of exercise (work, running); their short coat requires minimal brushing.
Feed 4-6 cups daily of Purina Pro Plan Large Breed Chicken & Rice Formula, with 26% protein and glucosamine for joint health, as Beaucerons are prone to hip dysplasia. Split meals to prevent bloat. Best for outdoor living with indoor access, they need space, not apartments.
Training curbs guarding instincts. Ideal for active, rural owners, Beaucerons aren’t for first-timers or small homes.
