The Boksenberg is situated in the heart of Noord Brabant’s nature reserve, an area steeped in beauty and densely populated with indigenous forests. In 1977 a certain dog was introduced to the Boksenberg household, the longhaired French shepherd also known as the Briard.
The Briard was chosen because of it’s characteristics, a strong healthy breed, fantastic appearance and a good nature. Needles to say, more than one dog came to reside at the Boksenberg and today many paws walk the gardens. We have been breeding here many years and have received both national and international recognition at shows for our dogs.
 
We work on many different levels with these intelligent animals, such as behavioural- and obedience training 1,2 and 3 and stamina training by aid of cycling. These national examinations are undertaken by the Royal Dutch Kennel Club – ‘Cynophellia’. Besides excelling in these areas Briard’s are also experts in Fly ball and Agility training, provided they are shown how!
Searching for more knowledge about dogs we studied the science of canines, mobility and also appearance. The combination of this knowledge, experience with Briard’s and membership to the Dutch Briard Club (N.B.C) and several other Briard Clubs in Europe, has left us in the perfect position to breed these beautiful animals.
 
All our dogs meet and exceed the criteria set by the N.B.C, the only recognized breeding organisation for Briard’s in the Netherlands. With an extensive choice of the best genetics in Europe, the parental mix is crucial and lies between physical & social characteristics, good nature and fine health. Today they are many generations of Boksenberg Briard’s walking around and we cannot imagine a life without them.
Once you choose this breed, the word ‘dog’ will only mean Briard. If you are interested in these magnificent dogs, feel free to contact us or to make an appointment for a visit. You can contact us by phone +31 495 697416 or e-mail
