Care Tips for Briards

1

Regular Grooming: Briards have long, dense coats that require regular brushing, ideally several times a week, to prevent matting and tangles. Professional grooming every few months can help maintain their coat's health and appearance.

2

Exercise and Mental Stimulation: Briards are active and intelligent dogs that need daily physical exercise and mental challenges. Engage them in activities like agility, obedience training, or long walks to keep them healthy and prevent boredom.

3

Socialization and Training: Early socialization and consistent, positive reinforcement training are essential for Briards to develop into well-adjusted adults. Expose them to various people, environments, and other animals to build their confidence and reduce anxiety.
