Breeding Program

Margaux Bouviers endeavors to produce a dog who is always a credit to the breed, structurally, mentally, and physically sound.  We strive to retain type in our dogs so that our line preserves the essence of the breed.

Temperament is of utmost importance as the dogs must possess the stable, protective attributes that exemplify the Bouvier, while still being calm enough to settle into a family situation.  Equally as important to temperament is the dog's health and well-being.  We strive to breed the healthiest dogs possible and guarantee that all breeding animals are comprehensively health tested.  Results are public on the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals website.

Furthermore, all breeding animals must be fine examples of the breed standard and have proven their worth in the conformation ring.  We continually strive for the best while looking toward the future.

We are exceptionally proud of the Top Twenty Conformation and Performance Bouviers we have produced. The Outstanding Breeder honor granted for this is provided by the American Bouvier des Flandres Club and includes 24 of our conformation and 16 of our performance dogs. Additionally six of our dogs and seventeen of our bitches have attained Register of Merit status, those Bouviers who have made the most contribution to the breed through the quality and skills of their offspring.
