Briards - Care Tips

Briards have a coarse coat, which can be compared to the goat's one. Well-groomed coat sheds very little and dirt does not cling to it. The minimum time needed to have a healthy and attractive dog is two hours a week. Without regular attention, the Briard's coat can easily become matted. Any excessive hair in the ears and between the pads ought to be carefully removed during the grooming sessions.

Briards - Exercise Requirements

If the Briard is sufficiently exercised, it will do all right in an apartment. Briards love to swim and run beside your bicycle and will accompany you wherever you please. Though Briards are relatively calm dogs indoors, and cannot be called hyperactive, as one might expect it from a herding dog, these dogs do need regular exercise. Bairds are a perfect breed to run or hike with.

Briards - Herding Trials

Herding trials are sets of challenging situations and tasks that should be accomplished in different ways. To participate in herding trails, the Briard should be given a fair amount of training and fitness. As a variety of large herding events, arena trials can be mentioned. They are usually held in a fenced area and are called to stimulate the conditions of a small farm. Open-field trials test the skills that are necessary for a dog to work sheep. Briards are unsurpassed in herding.
