Proud stewards of
beautiful Beaucerons.

Sweet companions. Capable workers. Discerning protectors.

Beautiful and capable of high-level work, appropriately protective, and tender with the people you love. A dog to share your adventures and be a delight at your feet.

I’m Angie Robertson. My passion for continually raising the bar for structure and temperament is about the life you can enjoy together—at home, at work, in competitive venues, and wherever your interests take you.

Tell me your goals, and I’ll choose the puppy whose strongest attributes suit them. My personal guidance continues throughout your dog’s life.

The complete Beauceron

The ideal Beauceron is beautiful and capable of high-level work, with the discernment to be appropriately protective and the tenderness to be a beloved companion. These qualities belong together. That is the complete dog I’m passionate about producing.

We consistently produce dogs who are top competitors in conformation and excel in protection, herding, tracking, Barn Hunt, obedience, Rally, dock diving, disc, and coursing. I want that beauty, ability, and temperament to make your dog a delight to live with as well as a capable partner in the activities you love.

Tell me your goals, and I’ll choose the puppy whose strongest attributes suit them. I consider what you want to do, the home and daily routine you can offer, and what I see developing in each puppy. Read how I evaluate and match our puppies.

We build each other up

Sharing, teaching, and uplifting others are some of the most fulfilling parts of JDV for me. I love seeing owners help each other, welcome someone new, and celebrate each other’s dogs. You do not need to be an experienced handler to belong here. You do need to be kind, willing to learn, and committed to your dog.

We take good sportsmanship and integrity very seriously. Competitive venues are where those values are tested most. How we treat our dogs, fellow competitors, judges, volunteers, and newcomers matters whether we win or lose. We are stewards of this breed and role models for the generations who will follow us. I want us to give them an example we can be proud of.

Preserving the qualities we love

I founded Coordinated Systems Restoration (CSR), and that work informs how I think about nutrition, digestive health, stress, and development at JDV. I share what I learn so you can understand your dog and feel capable caring for them.

Preservation also depends on our owners’ participation. I retain breeding rights and direct breeding decisions, and preservation partners commit to cooperating with the program from the beginning. Read what that involves.

Your puppy, your match, and our commitment

Puppies are $3,500. Your $200 waitlist deposit is credited toward that total. Included are individual matching, written nutrition and development resources, community access, and lifelong personal guidance by phone, text, and video.

Optional ear cropping is $1,500 additional, making the puppy and cropping total $5,000 before separately arranged transportation or other services. Posting-method coaching is included; aftercare requires a minimum four-month commitment. Board and train, transport, ordinary care, and required health testing are separate. Review all costs and what is included.

Understand preservation before you enroll

Your dog is part of your family. Preservation participation also carries written responsibilities, including keeping your dog intact unless authorized otherwise, required health testing, and cooperation with JDV-directed breeding when applicable to the placement. I direct breeding decisions and pay authorized breeding-specific expenses. The designation, commitments, and any arrangements are explained in the plain-language questions and linked agreement. I want you to understand and welcome them before committing.

Begin with the questions that matter to you

Explore how I raise and evaluate puppies, parent health records, owner experiences, and the enrollment FAQ. If an agreement or enrollment question remains unanswered, contact me for clarification.

After your application, signed waitlist agreement, and credited deposit are complete, I call within one week to get to know you and clarify matching priorities. We reconnect when a litter is born to confirm readiness. Your selected gender is guaranteed under the agreement; color is not. Before accepting a specific puppy, you may defer indefinitely without forfeiting your deposit. Read suitability, deferral, and one-year gender-availability refund terms.

We discuss pickup or transportation individually. My guidance continues wherever you live. Meet our current litters · Review enrollment and apply.

A beautiful dog. A full life together.

Our owners share days on the water, mountain trails, family trips, mornings at work, and quiet evenings at home. Their dogs are companions for the lives they already love, with the ability to explore new interests together.

The majority of our dogs live peacefully amongst cats, chickens, ducks, cattle, horses, and young children. I am every bit as proud of that daily companionship as I am of their accomplishments in competitive venues.

Calm, tender, and snuggly at your feet

Even though they are capable of high-level work and performance, our dogs can also be delightful daily companions when opportunities to use those capabilities are occasional. We condition calm, quiet, independence, neutrality, and self-management, conserving focus, intensity, and stamina for the appropriate times.

I want you to have attention for your own responsibilities—parenting, working from home, having your dog at work or in public, and house chores. I help you develop the habits that make life together enjoyable, with daily care, exercise, learning, and recovery suited to your dog.

Keep the photos coming

Most of the photographs on this website come from our owners. I am so grateful that you let me see and share the lives you give our dogs.

If you are bringing home a JDV puppy, I hope photographing your dog becomes something you love. Keep taking pictures through puppyhood, adolescence, adulthood, and the gray-muzzle years. Clear, well-lit photos help me follow development and preserve a record of each generation for future owners and breeders. Your dog may one day be the parent, grandparent, or relative someone is hoping to learn about.

A phone camera and natural light are enough. Get down to your dog’s level, keep the eyes in focus, and include full-body views as well as portraits, movement, and everyday adventures. Send original, full-resolution files, tell me your dog’s age, and let me know which images we may share and how you would like to be credited.
