Other dogs?: Lived with other dogs, needs proper introductions to strange dogs. Can be dog selective

How did this dog end up with ABCR?

Mattie’s owner passed away, so this poor girl found herself homeless.

Who will be a good family for this dog?

Mattie is a sweet, easygoing girl who will thrive in a quiet home. As far as Beaucerons go she is low energy, so she might be an excellent fit for a first time owner to enjoy the breed. She does need thyroid medication.

What does this dog’s foster home say?

Mattie is very sweet and seems to be adjusting well. She did great at the vet today and was quiet and polite for her nail trim. So far she is mellow, enjoyed a couple walks and she was very polite on the leash. She is slow to warm up to strangers, but

she is very snuggly with me, like a giant lap dog!

Name: Chanti
Age: 5 years
Gender: female, spayed
Kids: Good with Children
Other dogs? Good with other dogs. She will guard her food from other dogs (NOT PEOPLE)
Cats?: Good with kitties
Livestock?: Good with livestock, was raised on a ranch
Location: CA

How did this dog end up with ABCR?

Chanti had a rough start in her life. She and her littermate were sold to a ranch, and on Chanti’s very first heat cycle she was bred to her brother (we assume accidentally) She was rehomed from that situation, where she was then surrendered to ABCR when her owner found herself going through some major live changes.

Who will be a good family for this dog?
Chanti will make a great family dog! She is not as active as some Beaucerons, but would still make a great jogging/hiking partner. She is housebroken and has great manners.

What does this dog’s foster home say?

She does need to be fed separately from the pack, she will guard food. But doesn’t guard toys. She has no problems with humans taking toys, treats, or food, just other dogs. Other then that Chanti is a GREAT dog. She is sweet and goofy, always wants to be with you.

Lyla is a 5 year old Beauceron mix who is looking for her forever family.

This sweet girl was dumped in an overnight drop box at a shelter in Florida. We can’t figure out why someone wouldn’t have the decency to try to find this sweet girl an actual home instead of abandoning her like garbage in a drop box. She is so good natured and a wonderful dog. The only thing we can think of is that she was positive for heartworm, and her family couldn’t afford the treatment.

The good news? The heartworms are treated and gone, and Lyla is now spayed, up to date on shots, and healthy!
Lyla is excellent and quiet in a crate, dis housebroken.
She is polite with other dogs and showed only slight interest in chickens when exposed to them.
She is wonderful with older (5+) children
Lyla is being fostered in Texas.

ADOPTED

Lobo is a 3 year old neutered black and tan male Beauceron with cropped ears. Lobo is your typical young male Beauce boy, he is goofy and bouncy. Lobo was surrendered to rescue when another dog in the household began fighting with him. His family came to the difficult decision that living the crate and rotate lifestyle was NOT fair to Lobo. They do think he would get along just fine with an easygoing female. Lobo is reserved with strangers and needs time to warm up to people he doesn’t know. He was shown briefly when he was young, but he much prefers the quiet, homebody lifestyle. Lobo has basic manners and training, and is housebroken and good in a crate. He is being fostered in CA.

Lobo was adopted in November of 2018, he is enjoying life with his family in the pacific northwest.

Desi is a sweet year and a half old spayed female. She is a black and tan with natural ears and all her double dews 🙂 She is been thriving in her foster home. They say she is a wonderful, sweet dog who has basic manners, is housebroken, and a perfect lovebug. She is good in the car, good in her crate (but LOVES the radio on, she seems to prefer smooth Jazz)and is an excellent, but sloppy, kisser. Desi’s foster family have been socializing her and bringing her out and about to dog friendly stores and local parks, she is shy with strangers, but shows no aggression. Desi is good with other dogs and livestock, but needs a home without cats. She is good with children. Desi is being fostered in Nebreska.

Chantai is a harlequin 3 year old female with natural ears. She is a purebred Beauceron. She is housebroken, excellent in a crate and good with other dogs as long as she is given proper introductions. She has basic obedience and walks well on a leash, but we recommend her new owner be dedicated to continuing her training. She is a smart girl who needs a chance to use her brain! She will chase cats if they run, but backs right down if they sass back at her. We are comfortable adopting her out to a home with kitties as long as the new family will introduce properly! She likes her privacy when she eats, her foster feeds her in a crate and when other dogs approach she will growl at them. Chantai’s human foster can take food, toys, bones away from her without issue. Chantai is being spayed next week so we will start to accept applications on her. She is being fostered in CA.

Isabeau is a beautiful French import girl who just arrived at her new foster home on June 10th. More info on her as we get to know her! But in the meantime her foster mom says “Picked up Isa on Sunday the 10th. She is slowly adjusting to life here. She has never been in a house before so that is new for her. Still finding out what her quirks are but so far none to bad. She gets along fine with my male beauce but still not sure about the female kelpie. Does have a great interest in the feral cats here and will need work on that.
She loves water and a little swimming at the pond, but not from a water hose, comes when called and knows a little obedience.
She has a body shape more like a rottie heavy boned, but has to lose a lot of weight. Her height might be around 24.5″ Can not even feel her ribs. So she gets a lot of exercise with Ouran running with us and the atv. She does not bother the cows or the horses which is good.” She is the black and tan pictured laying down. Being Fostered in CA.
