Briard Breeders, TAS

The Merveille prefix was established in 2001 by Dr Kay Sanderson. Kay has loved and lived with briards for over 25 years. Merveille is an ancient French word meaning marvellous or wonderful which indeed briards are. It was only in 2019 that Kay bred for the first time with her beautiful, friendly, fawn girl, Freya, officially Tiahart Miss Monroe. In an endeavour to increase the gene pool in Australia. Kay imported semen from a beautiful black briard boy from Belgium. His name is Marco Polo du Coeur des Tresors, owned by Peggy Vlaminckx. Marco is a Belgium youth champion with a character test score of 18/20. Freya gave birth to 10 healthy puppies on 17th September, 2019 then 13 healthy puppies on 16th January 2021. All these puppies are in lovely homes with owners reporting lovely characteristics and beautiful temperaments.. Freya and Marco's beautiful, affectionate and loving fawn daughter gave birth to 6 gorgeous puppies mid July 2022 and 7 gorgeous puppies mid July 2023. Semen was imported this time from a beautiful fawn Italian champion called Lud. Hermione O'Ren, his owner, describes Lud as a very friendly, affectionate, balanced, loyal and attentive dog. All puppies from both litters have loving homes and very happy owners. If you are interested in Merveille puppies please contact Kay at [email protected] CCCQ Membership number: 4100117394.

We, Andreas and Carmen both originally from Germany and living in the beautiful surroundings of Adelaide/South Australia since 2005, have established the kennel CARMANDY BRIARDS in 2014. We are aiming to breed high quality Briards for the love and enjoyment of these wonderful breed. Our dogs are above all family companions and of course live in the house with us. Our focus is on maintaining the breed characteristics and not on producing numbers and of course we are testing for hereditary diseases!! Puppies are born and raised in the house, with permanent human interactions. We also raise our puppies with the puppy culture program from day 3 of their life, including Early Neurological Stimulation, Emotional Resiliency Exercises, Safe Early Socialisation, The Enrichment Affects, Puppy Parties, Puzzle Games and Problem Solving, Anti Aggression Protocols, Leash Walking, Clicker Training, Potty Training, Crate Training, Manding, Problem Prevention and much more... (Please send message for more informations). Obviously we are Briard crazy and enjoy everything about the breed :) If you are interested in adopting a puppy please drop us a line, we would be delighted hearing from you. [email protected]

Narbrisse - located in Adelaide - is a top Briard kennel in Australia. Liz Bennett has been proudly breeding and campaigning Briards continuously for 44 years and her current dogs are a successful and carefully selected combination of leading UK, European and Australian bloodlines. Liz has a number of highly titled Briards. Prior to the COVID-19 hiatus, Narbrisse was campaigning up to 10 show Briards with several regularly attracting awards. Since March 2020, opportunities to campaign dogs have been far more limited and challenging with so many travel restrictions and show cancellations. Notwithstanding this, we are currently campaigning three very promising Briards. All Narbrisse breeding stock are hip scored and CSNB tested to ensure we maintain soundness in our bloodlines. In recognition of the historical “working” ethic and purpose of the breed, we strive to maintain this through careful and planned breeding. Narbrisse has imported a number of quality Briards to complement and enhance the breed's bloodlines in Australia. When we have Briard puppies available we check to ensure the new owners understand the breed and have an appropriate set-up to welcome their new dog and we maintain an on-going interest in all Briards we place elsewhere – whether in a pet home, or as show dogs. While we have no immediate plans for a litter, you are welcome to contact Liz with genuine enquiries.

The Glenine prefix has been breeding working dogs since first being registered in 1948. We are now second generation registered breeders, with hopes to pass on this wealth of knowledge to a third generation. Briards are first and foremost a working dog. They love to work and to please their human families. They are just as happy in the paddock as on the couch, but need leadership. We breed to the standard for a well balanced (both mentally and physically) and well put together dog that can be a loving member of the family as well as being able to compete in desired disciplines, be it the show ring, herding etc.
