"A mixture of strength and tenderness
He has an extraordinary balance, but is late-flowering and is only mature at the age of 2 1/2 or 3.
The Bouvier requires a boss who is patient, but determined. He has to gain the trust of this stubborn dog, rough, direct, self-willed, but when he gains it he keeps it forever. He will never the less keep his stubborn and independant character.
With kids he reveals a total security and a patience of an angel. Talking to breeders, you will always hear of their contact as a child with Bouviers. They learned them to walk, kept their biggest secrets,...
It's this mixture of strenght and tenderness, dynamism and calm, will to please and character that attracts the Bouvier-lovers. Aren't you attracted by that serious strenght?"
Translation by Véronique Vanderveken of the article of Gérard Sasias in Atout Chien, june 1995, p. 66-69.
I miss my Bailey so.
