  • About the Berger Picard
    The Berger Picard is the oldest of the French sheepdogs and is fairly new to America. They were only added to the AKC in 2016! It is believed that the Celts brought them over to France around 800 AD. This is an active and athletic breed that has been herding sheep for hundreds of years. Their shaggy wiry coat surprisingly requires less grooming and maintenance than one would think. Picards are highly intelligent and respond well to training. These guys play well with kids and can make great family additions.
