The Briard is a breed of herding dog that originates from France. The breed is thought to be a mixture of the Barbet and the Beauceron. The Briard was only standardized after a dog show, in Paris, in the late 1800s. Traditionally the Briard was bred and developed to both guard and herd flocks of sheep without the presence of the farmer. Most sheepdogs either herd or guard flocks. Breeds that herd normally have small, compact and agile builds to allow them to efficiently, and quickly, herd sheep. Guard dogs normally have larger, heavier and more athletic builds to allow them to adequately defend the flocks of sheep. The Briard is a mixture of both a herding and guarding dog: it has a compact and athletic body while not being small. The Briard is also known to be highly intelligent and was more than capable of minding a flock of sheep alone. The French military employed the Briard was a sentry, messenger and a search and rescue dog during World War 1. The Briard was actually used to such an extent that the breed nearly went extinct! In modern times the Briard is still used as a military dog, a police dog, a search and rescue dog and as a domesticated companion dog. The Briard has a characteristic coarse, long and shaggy overcoat and fine and dense undercoat that sits tightly to the dog's stomach. As a whole, the breed is known to be extremely intelligent, empathetic, loyal and loving. They have been a popular choice for family pets and therapy dogs due to their kind natures.

The author felt it worthwhile to create a record of some long established, and successful breeders, attempting to capture in their own words, their concerns and views when breeding. There are interviews from the breed country of origin, France, vibrant with hundreds of years of history, breed development, and continual pedigrees. Rich with experience and knowledge, France remains an undisputed resource, their experts respected worldwide. A few interviews are with people who are French in origin but moved to the USA and continued their involvement. The balance is with breeders from the authors home country, the USA.

This book, the author hopes will be "a means to leave messages to future breeders, to communicate through time and space, some valuable points."

Neither will he promise you an easy road to success. All he can ever give you is the chance to learn and the admonition that having perseverence, perspective and purpose, will give you a fifty-fifty chance." USA breeder, Harold Marley, highly respected influential breeder of Marha Briards, from 1964- died 1976
