Bouvier des Flandres

{[['']]}

It may not sound like it, but there is a dog breed known as Bouvier des Flanders, typically shortened as Bouviers.

Originally kept as herding dogs, the Bouvier des Flanders hails from Flanders, and was generally kept in farms, not just as herd dogs but also for various functions and work-related tasks like cattle droving and even pulling carts. With male Bouviers known to weigh as much as 54 kilograms, the Bouvier is certainly a big dog breed, with a rugged look that matches with its “sturdy” all around role in the farm.

The 1999 released movie, A Dog of Flanders, featured a Bouvier des Flanders named Napoloeon as its title character “actor”, with Napoleon playing the part of Patrasche. Based on a novel written in 1872.

Effectively drawing the positive personality aspects of the Bouvier breed, the movie managed to capture the loyal nature of Bouviers, as well as accurately depicted the breed’s penchant to be protective of its masters. Gentle and loyal, Bouviers are also known for combining the attributes of strength and sensitivity as their personal quirks, making them a popular dog breed option for households.

Though obedient and loyal, the thing with Bouviers is that they are quite sophisticated, with an acute sense of accountability. Cool and intelligent, these attributes make Bouviers easily bored, something which Bouvier owners have had to contend and deal with from time to time.

Though far from being a huge issue of concern regarding the breed, Bouviers are certainly smart enough, active enough and loyal enough to be a home’s own dog, who will keep household safe from harm’s way.
