Re: 2 Unusual Breeds
I've read of the Leonberger but have never seen Beauceron... they're really interesting looking.

Re: 2 Unusual Breeds
I love Beaucerons - especially the floppy ear ones. My mutt was mistaken for a beaurecon once. The lady was from France and she was convinced that Obie was pure bred Beauc and I didn't have the heart to tell her he was just a mutt dumped at SPCA along with two of his brothers when he was 6 weeks old.

Re: 2 Unusual Breeds
I love Beaucerons! I almost got one instead of Balto. But they are a HANDFUL! A lady in my area has one and she needed major help handling him as a puppy. I met up with them several times at obedience trials and I just loved him! Maybe when I retire I'll get one.
There is also a Leonberger that frequents our obedience trials. |

Re: 2 Unusual Breeds
I LOVE Beaucerons! The last time I was in France I stalked a guy who was walking his Beauceron and then finally got up the nerve to ask him a bunch of questions (in French, of course, hence the getting up the nerve part).
They look like a rottie x gsd to me. They are very rare in this country and if I ever saw one in rescue I would snap her/him right up!
