As most briards born don't even go near a ring we like to think that they should be bred for soundness and above all great conformation. But overall a good family pet is what most people want. Even though we show and enjoy it most of the time, we think that the most important stuff is the time spent at home with your briard.

We have carefully selected our lines from overseas, focusing on Tiahart Briards who have some of the best stock in Australia that are competing in the ring at present. Tiahart is Australia's top producing kennel at present. We hope by having this much valued line in our kennel we can combine our lines and produce a stunning mixture of excellent conformation, brains and beauty.

We aim to bring people a pup that will give years of enjoyment. We hope that you will stay in contact with us for the entire life of your briard. We offer a life time of help and support with your briard and cherish the thought of being your choice for a new family member.

All our stock is hip scored and eye tested for CSNB. As we are a small kennel that breeds for quality (not quantity) please email for information as to what breeding is coming up.

You will always find us friendly and willing to help as we love being ambassadors for the breed. Feel free to contact anytime and we can send out a pack if you are interested in a briard. It is important to remember that a briard is not always right for everyone. We are here to help you make that decision.

We have had the pleasure of living with "hearts wrapped in fur" since 1984.
Our Briards are long coated with good outgoing temperaments and rarely available due to our selective breeding program, we are happy to include prospective owners on our waiting list FoC at any time.
Briard puppies can be very energetic and when we were adopted by our first Briard we were told that if we survived the first 3 years we would always have the pleasure of a Briard in our lives - how true this has become you can only find by experience.
Briards are very affectionate without being pushy, they read your mods and just love to be with you.
