Before you apply or pay a deposit

Please read the Puppy Preservation Partnership Agreement and partnership explanation first. For a female breeding prospect, Angie Robertson remains named alongside you on the AKC certificate to prevent unauthorized transfer and litter registration and preserve JDV’s breeding authority. Both require her prior written authorization and participation. You provide the permanent family home and make everyday care decisions. JDV has no general right to possession, custody, entry into your home, or control of household or veterinary decisions. Required health testing and cooperation with the breeding commitments are part of the partnership. These responsibilities are part of the placement, even when your main goal is companionship.

Does my deposit reserve Belair, Bristol, or another named puppy?

No. An application or deposit alone does not reserve an individual puppy. I review your application, confirm that you understand and support the partnership, and evaluate suitability before making a written puppy offer. A Good Dog payment confirmation or puppy preference is not a placement confirmation. If you already paid, do not pay again.

Can I spay her if she is not selected for breeding?

A female may be spayed at seven years of age. Before then, my prior written approval is required even if she is not selected for breeding or has completed her litters. The agreement includes an exception when a veterinarian determines immediate sterilization is necessary to protect life or prevent substantial suffering and waiting would be medically unreasonable. Notify me promptly and provide the veterinary record.

Can I change my puppy’s name?

Yes. Belair and Bristol may be renamed. Their call names must begin with B because they were born in 2026, with “du Joie de Vie” added to the registered name. We confirm the name together before registration.

How do I confirm that I want this partnership?

Read each term and discuss it with everyone who will share the commitment. Then reply directly to me confirming that you understand and agree to the terms individually and enthusiastically support a partnership with me. If a specific point is unclear, include that question. Please take this step before asking to reserve a puppy or sending a deposit.

Realistic health expectations

My goal is to reduce the risk of serious health conditions by screening the parents and studying their family histories. Every Beauceron is a living individual, and even carefully bred puppies can develop health problems. No breeder can credibly guarantee a lifetime free of illness, injury, or inherited conditions. What I can offer is informed breeding decisions, openness about known findings, and continued guidance as your dog grows.

Puppy price and getting started

Here are answers to the questions I hear most often. Please read through the costs, matching process, and preservation responsibilities before joining the waitlist.

Can I contact Angie before joining the waitlist?

Please start with the agreements above so you can decide whether the partnership is right for you.

If something specific is still unclear after reading, email JDVApplication@gmail.com with your question. I’m happy to clarify. The commitments are part of bringing home a JDV puppy, so please apply only if you’re comfortable with them.

To enroll, complete your application, signed waitlist agreement, and $200 credited deposit plus $6 processing fee. I call within one week of completed enrollment so we can get to know each other and talk about your goals for your dog. I reconnect when a litter is born to confirm timing and readiness. Enrolled applicants can ask questions while waiting; I share photos and videos by text. Current owners have unlimited access to me by text and phone, with video coaching as needed.

What is the investment in a JDV puppy?

For new applicants beginning November 6, 2026: harlequin male $5,000; harlequin female $4,500; black-and-rust male $4,500; black-and-rust female $3,500. Existing deposit holders retain their previously agreed price. Your $200 deposit is credited toward the applicable price. Ear cropping is optional, purely aesthetic, and arranged independently by the owner as explained below.

Why JDV puppy prices vary

In a typical year I receive about 1,000 applications and raise about 40 puppies. Across all our litters, about four puppies a year are harlequin, including both males and females. Even when a harlequin male is born, his temperament, drive, and developing abilities have to suit the home.

Most requests are for a harlequin male. Far fewer families initially ask for a harlequin female or a black-and-rust male, and black-and-rust females receive the fewest requests. I can’t possibly meet the demand for harlequin males. The numbers and mix vary by litter, and I choose pairings for health, structure, temperament, and working ability. That’s why I don’t take advance reservations for harlequin males.

I adjust prices to soften demand for the few puppies I can’t produce in the numbers people request and to encourage families to consider the whole litter. My ability to keep improving the breed depends on finding a suitable home for every puppy we raise. That means having families who are just as excited to welcome a black-and-rust female as others are to welcome a harlequin male.

I want you to love the dog you live with every day. I match puppies by temperament, drive, and fit with your household. Paying more gives no placement priority, and color availability depends on the puppies born and the homes they suit.

What I see in our females and males

In my experience with our Beaucerons, females are almost always the more serious, focused, intense, and protective of the two. They can bring that intensity to work and still be easier to live with day to day. I generally find them less odorous, easier to keep clean, and easier to manage in public and around other dogs. I still look at the individual dog and the household before making a match.

Our intact females typically come into heat once or twice a year, though timing varies. Pregnancy is possible during the fertile part of the heat cycle. Washable dog pants help contain discharge indoors. I keep females securely separated from intact males throughout the entire heat, since pants can shift or come off.

Size is the clearest physical difference I see. Our adult males generally weigh about 20–30 pounds more than our females. Beyond size and reproductive differences, I look at each puppy’s temperament, drive, and ability to settle to decide who will fit your life.

I want you to love the dog you live with every day. I match puppies by temperament, drive, and fit with your household. Paying more gives no placement priority, and color availability depends on the puppies born and the homes they suit.

What I see in our females and males

In my experience with our Beaucerons, females are almost always the more serious, focused, intense, and protective of the two. They can bring that intensity to work and still be easier to live with day to day. I generally find them less odorous, easier to keep clean, and easier to manage in public and around other dogs. I still look at the individual dog and the household before making a match.

Our intact females typically come into heat once or twice a year, though timing varies. Pregnancy is possible during the fertile part of the heat cycle. Washable dog pants help contain discharge indoors. I keep females securely separated from intact males throughout the entire heat, since pants can shift or come off.

Size is the clearest physical difference I see. Our adult males generally weigh about 20–30 pounds more than our females. Beyond size and reproductive differences, I look at each puppy’s temperament, drive, and ability to settle to decide who will fit your life.

Why JDV puppy prices vary

In a typical year I receive about 1,000 applications and raise about 40 puppies. Across all our litters, about four puppies a year are harlequin, including both males and females. Even when a harlequin male is born, his temperament, drive, and developing abilities have to suit the home.

Most requests are for a harlequin male. Far fewer families initially ask for a harlequin female or a black-and-rust male, and black-and-rust females receive the fewest requests. I can’t possibly meet the demand for harlequin males. The numbers and mix vary by litter, and I choose pairings for health, structure, temperament, and working ability. That’s why I don’t take advance reservations for harlequin males.

I adjust prices to soften demand for the few puppies I can’t produce in the numbers people request and to encourage families to consider the whole litter. My ability to keep improving the breed depends on finding a suitable home for every puppy we raise. That means having families who are just as excited to welcome a black-and-rust female as others are to welcome a harlequin male.

Size is the clearest physical difference I see. Our adult males generally weigh about 20–30 pounds more than our females. Beyond size and reproductive differences, I look at each puppy’s temperament, drive, and ability to settle to decide who will fit your life.

Why JDV puppy prices vary

In a typical year I receive about 1,000 applications and raise about 40 puppies. Across all our litters, about four puppies a year are harlequin, including both males and females. Even when a harlequin male is born, his temperament, drive, and developing abilities have to suit the home.

Most requests are for a harlequin male. Far fewer families initially ask for a harlequin female or a black-and-rust male, and black-and-rust females receive the fewest requests. I can’t possibly meet the demand for harlequin males. The numbers and mix vary by litter, and I choose pairings for health, structure, temperament, and working ability. That’s why I don’t take advance reservations for harlequin males.

I adjust prices to soften demand for the few puppies I can’t produce in the numbers people request and to encourage families to consider the whole litter. My ability to keep improving the breed depends on finding a suitable home for every puppy we raise. That means having families who are just as excited to welcome a black-and-rust female as others are to welcome a harlequin male.

I want you to love the dog you live with every day. I match puppies by temperament, drive, and fit with your household. Paying more gives no placement priority, and color availability depends on the puppies born and the homes they suit.

What I see in our females and males

In my experience with our Beaucerons, females are almost always the more serious, focused, intense, and protective of the two. They can bring that intensity to work and still be easier to live with day to day. I generally find them less odorous, easier to keep clean, and easier to manage in public and around other dogs. I still look at the individual dog and the household before making a match.

That’s why I don’t take advance reservations for harlequin males.

I adjust prices to soften demand for the few puppies I can’t produce in the numbers people request and to encourage families to consider the whole litter. My ability to keep improving the breed depends on finding a suitable home for every puppy we raise. That means having families who are just as excited to welcome a black-and-rust female as others are to welcome a harlequin male.

I want you to love the dog you live with every day. I match puppies by temperament, drive, and fit with your household. Paying more gives no placement priority, and color availability depends on the puppies born and the homes they suit.

What I see in our females and males

In my experience with our Beaucerons, females are almost always the more serious, focused, intense, and protective of the two. They can bring that intensity to work and still be easier to live with day to day. I generally find them less odorous, easier to keep clean, and easier to manage in public and around other dogs. I still look at the individual dog and the household before making a match.

Our intact females typically come into heat once or twice a year, though timing varies. Pregnancy is possible during the fertile part of the heat cycle. Washable dog pants help contain discharge indoors. I keep females securely separated from intact males throughout the entire heat, since pants can shift or come off.

Size is the clearest physical difference I see. Our adult males generally weigh about 20–30 pounds more than our females. Beyond size and reproductive differences, I look at each puppy’s temperament, drive, and ability to settle to decide who will fit your life.

Why JDV puppy prices vary

In a typical year I receive about 1,000 applications and raise about 40 puppies. Across all our litters, about four puppies a year are harlequin, including both males and females. Even when a harlequin male is born, his temperament, drive, and developing abilities have to suit the home.

They can bring that intensity to work and still be easier to live with day to day. I generally find them less odorous, easier to keep clean, and easier to manage in public and around other dogs. I still look at the individual dog and the household before making a match.

Our intact females typically come into heat once or twice a year, though timing varies. Pregnancy is possible during the fertile part of the heat cycle. Washable dog pants help contain discharge indoors. I keep females securely separated from intact males throughout the entire heat, since pants can shift or come off.

Size is the clearest physical difference I see. Our adult males generally weigh about 20–30 pounds more than our females. Beyond size and reproductive differences, I look at each puppy’s temperament, drive, and ability to settle to decide who will fit your life.

Why JDV puppy prices vary

In a typical year I receive about 1,000 applications and raise about 40 puppies. Across all our litters, about four puppies a year are harlequin, including both males and females. Even when a harlequin male is born, his temperament, drive, and developing abilities have to suit the home.

Most requests are for a harlequin male. Far fewer families initially ask for a harlequin female or a black-and-rust male, and black-and-rust females receive the fewest requests. I can’t possibly meet the demand for harlequin males. The numbers and mix vary by litter, and I choose pairings for health, structure, temperament, and working ability. That’s why I don’t take advance reservations for harlequin males.

I adjust prices to soften demand for the few puppies I can’t produce in the numbers people request and to encourage families to consider the whole litter. My ability to keep improving the breed depends on finding a suitable home for every puppy we raise. That means having families who are just as excited to welcome a black-and-rust female as others are to welcome a harlequin male.

I want you to love the dog you live with every day. I match puppies by temperament, drive, and fit with your household. Paying more gives no placement priority, and color availability depends on the puppies born and the homes they suit.

In a typical year I receive about 1,000 applications and raise about 40 puppies. Across all our litters, about four puppies a year are harlequin, including both males and females. Even when a harlequin male is born, his temperament, drive, and developing abilities have to suit the home.

Most requests are for a harlequin male. Far fewer families initially ask for a harlequin female or a black-and-rust male, and black-and-rust females receive the fewest requests. I can’t possibly meet the demand for harlequin males. The numbers and mix vary by litter, and I choose pairings for health, structure, temperament, and working ability. That’s why I don’t take advance reservations for harlequin males.

I adjust prices to soften demand for the few puppies I can’t produce in the numbers people request and to encourage families to consider the whole litter. My ability to keep improving the breed depends on finding a suitable home for every puppy we raise. That means having families who are just as excited to welcome a black-and-rust female as others are to welcome a harlequin male.

I want you to love the dog you live with every day. I match puppies by temperament, drive, and fit with your household. Paying more gives no placement priority, and color availability depends on the puppies born and the homes they suit.

What I see in our females and males

In my experience with our Beaucerons, females are almost always the more serious, focused, intense, and protective of the two. They can bring that intensity to work and still be easier to live with day to day. I generally find them less odorous, easier to keep clean, and easier to manage in public and around other dogs. I still look at the individual dog and the household before making a match.

Our intact females typically come into heat once or twice a year, though timing varies. Pregnancy is possible during the fertile part of the heat cycle. Washable dog pants help contain discharge indoors. I keep females securely separated from intact males throughout the entire heat, since pants can shift or come off.

Size is the clearest physical difference I see. Our adult males generally weigh about 20–30 pounds more than our females. Beyond size and reproductive differences, I look at each puppy’s temperament, drive, and ability to settle to decide who will fit your life.

That means having families who are just as excited to welcome a black-and-rust female as others are to welcome a harlequin male.

I want you to love the dog you live with every day. I match puppies by temperament, drive, and fit with your household. Paying more gives no placement priority, and color availability depends on the puppies born and the homes they suit.

What I see in our females and males

In my experience with our Beaucerons, females are almost always the more serious, focused, intense, and protective of the two. They can bring that intensity to work and still be easier to live with day to day. I generally find them less odorous, easier to keep clean, and easier to manage in public and around other dogs. I still look at the individual dog and the household before making a match.

Our intact females typically come into heat once or twice a year, though timing varies. Pregnancy is possible during the fertile part of the heat cycle. Washable dog pants help contain discharge indoors. I keep females securely separated from intact males throughout the entire heat, since pants can shift or come off.

Size is the clearest physical difference I see. Our adult males generally weigh about 20–30 pounds more than our females. Beyond size and reproductive differences, I look at each puppy’s temperament, drive, and ability to settle to decide who will fit your life.

Why JDV puppy prices vary

In a typical year I receive about 1,000 applications and raise about 40 puppies. Across all our litters, about four puppies a year are harlequin, including both males and females. Even when a harlequin male is born, his temperament, drive, and developing abilities have to suit the home.

Most requests are for a harlequin male. Far fewer families initially ask for a harlequin female or a black-and-rust male, and black-and-rust females receive the fewest requests. I can’t possibly meet the demand for harlequin males. The numbers and mix vary by litter, and I choose pairings for health, structure, temperament, and working ability. That’s why I don’t take advance reservations for harlequin males.

Washable dog pants help contain discharge indoors. I keep females securely separated from intact males throughout the entire heat, since pants can shift or come off.

Size is the clearest physical difference I see. Our adult males generally weigh about 20–30 pounds more than our females. Beyond size and reproductive differences, I look at each puppy’s temperament, drive, and ability to settle to decide who will fit your life.

Why JDV puppy prices vary

In a typical year I receive about 1,000 applications and raise about 40 puppies. Across all our litters, about four puppies a year are harlequin, including both males and females. Even when a harlequin male is born, his temperament, drive, and developing abilities have to suit the home.

Most requests are for a harlequin male. Far fewer families initially ask for a harlequin female or a black-and-rust male, and black-and-rust females receive the fewest requests. I can’t possibly meet the demand for harlequin males. The numbers and mix vary by litter, and I choose pairings for health, structure, temperament, and working ability. That’s why I don’t take advance reservations for harlequin males.

I adjust prices to soften demand for the few puppies I can’t produce in the numbers people request and to encourage families to consider the whole litter. My ability to keep improving the breed depends on finding a suitable home for every puppy we raise. That means having families who are just as excited to welcome a black-and-rust female as others are to welcome a harlequin male.

I want you to love the dog you live with every day. I match puppies by temperament, drive, and fit with your household. Paying more gives no placement priority, and color availability depends on the puppies born and the homes they suit.

What I see in our females and males

In my experience with our Beaucerons, females are almost always the more serious, focused, intense, and protective of the two. They can bring that intensity to work and still be easier to live with day to day. I generally find them less odorous, easier to keep clean, and easier to manage in public and around other dogs.

I can’t possibly meet the demand for harlequin males. The numbers and mix vary by litter, and I choose pairings for health, structure, temperament, and working ability. That’s why I don’t take advance reservations for harlequin males.

I adjust prices to soften demand for the few puppies I can’t produce in the numbers people request and to encourage families to consider the whole litter. My ability to keep improving the breed depends on finding a suitable home for every puppy we raise. That means having families who are just as excited to welcome a black-and-rust female as others are to welcome a harlequin male.

I want you to love the dog you live with every day. I match puppies by temperament, drive, and fit with your household. Paying more gives no placement priority, and color availability depends on the puppies born and the homes they suit.

What I see in our females and males

In my experience with our Beaucerons, females are almost always the more serious, focused, intense, and protective of the two. They can bring that intensity to work and still be easier to live with day to day. I generally find them less odorous, easier to keep clean, and easier to manage in public and around other dogs. I still look at the individual dog and the household before making a match.

Our intact females typically come into heat once or twice a year, though timing varies. Pregnancy is possible during the fertile part of the heat cycle. Washable dog pants help contain discharge indoors. I keep females securely separated from intact males throughout the entire heat, since pants can shift or come off.

Size is the clearest physical difference I see. Our adult males generally weigh about 20–30 pounds more than our females. Beyond size and reproductive differences, I look at each puppy’s temperament, drive, and ability to settle to decide who will fit your life.

I want you to love the dog you live with every day. I match puppies by temperament, drive, and fit with your household. Paying more gives no placement priority, and color availability depends on the puppies born and the homes they suit.

What I see in our females and males

In my experience with our Beaucerons, females are almost always the more serious, focused, intense, and protective of the two. They can bring that intensity to work and still be easier to live with day to day. I generally find them less odorous, easier to keep clean, and easier to manage in public and around other dogs. I still look at the individual dog and the household before making a match.

Our intact females typically come into heat once or twice a year, though timing varies. Pregnancy is possible during the fertile part of the heat cycle. Washable dog pants help contain discharge indoors. I keep females securely separated from intact males throughout the entire heat, since pants can shift or come off.

Size is the clearest physical difference I see. Our adult males generally weigh about 20–30 pounds more than our females. Beyond size and reproductive differences, I look at each puppy’s temperament, drive, and ability to settle to decide who will fit your life.

Why JDV puppy prices vary

In a typical year I receive about 1,000 applications and raise about 40 puppies. Across all our litters, about four puppies a year are harlequin, including both males and females. Even when a harlequin male is born, his temperament, drive, and developing abilities have to suit the home.

Most requests are for a harlequin male. Far fewer families initially ask for a harlequin female or a black-and-rust male, and black-and-rust females receive the fewest requests. I can’t possibly meet the demand for harlequin males. The numbers and mix vary by litter, and I choose pairings for health, structure, temperament, and working ability. That’s why I don’t take advance reservations for harlequin males.

I adjust prices to soften demand for the few puppies I can’t produce in the numbers people request and to encourage families to consider the whole litter. My ability to keep improving the breed depends on finding a suitable home for every puppy we raise. That means having families who are just as excited to welcome a black-and-rust female as others are to welcome a harlequin male.

Size is the clearest physical difference I see. Our adult males generally weigh about 20–30 pounds more than our females. Beyond size and reproductive differences, I look at each puppy’s temperament, drive, and ability to settle to decide who will fit your life.

Why JDV puppy prices vary

In a typical year I receive about 1,000 applications and raise about 40 puppies. Across all our litters, about four puppies a year are harlequin, including both males and females. Even when a harlequin male is born, his temperament, drive, and developing abilities have to suit the home.

Most requests are for a harlequin male. Far fewer families initially ask for a harlequin female or a black-and-rust male, and black-and-rust females receive the fewest requests. I can’t possibly meet the demand for harlequin males. The numbers and mix vary by litter, and I choose pairings for health, structure, temperament, and working ability. That’s why I don’t take advance reservations for harlequin males.

I adjust prices to soften demand for the few puppies I can’t produce in the numbers people request and to encourage families to consider the whole litter. My ability to keep improving the breed depends on finding a suitable home for every puppy we raise. That means having families who are just as excited to welcome a black-and-rust female as others are to welcome a harlequin male.

I want you to love the dog you live with every day. I match puppies by temperament, drive, and fit with your household. Paying more gives no placement priority, and color availability depends on the puppies born and the homes they suit.

What I see in our females and males

In my experience with our Beaucerons, females are almost always the more serious, focused, intense, and protective of the two. They can bring that intensity to work and still be easier to live with day to day. I generally find them less odorous, easier to keep clean, and easier to manage in public and around other dogs. I still look at the individual dog and the household before making a match.

Why are Good Dog prices higher?

Good Dog prices are higher than the corresponding direct JDV prices to cover platform fees. Good Dog prices are $5,350 for a harlequin male, $4,850 for a harlequin female or black-and-tan male, and $3,750 for a black-and-tan female. The $215 Good Dog deposit is credited toward that platform price. Direct JDV enrollment uses a $200 credited deposit plus a separate $6 processing fee. The difference reflects the platform used for the transaction; it does not change our puppy evaluation, matching process, or lifelong owner guidance. Review the price, credited deposit, and any separately disclosed checkout fees for your transaction before paying.

Which terms should I rely on?

Older listings and search previews may show retired prices or earlier placement terms. Review the current information here and your applicable written quote and signed agreements. Previously agreed prices remain honored. Please ask me to clarify any discrepancy before paying or making travel plans.

What additional financial commitments should I plan for?

Ear cropping is optional and purely for aesthetic preference. Owners who choose ear cropping must schedule their own appointment with JDV’s only approved veterinarian, Dr. Lapova in Memphis, Tennessee, and arrange their own transportation. Cropped ears require a minimum four-month commitment to aftercare; JDV’s posting-method coaching is included. Pre-arranged JDV Puppy Development — Board & Train begins at eight weeks, subject to availability and acceptance: two weeks $1,750; four weeks $3,500; eight weeks $7,000; additional week $875. Active ear posting or additional cropped-ear care adds $175 per week only while needed (full-stay totals with care throughout: $2,100 / $4,200 / $8,400; additional week $1,050). Healed cropped dogs needing no extra care pay the standard rate. Existing confirmed training quotes are honored. Training rates exclude puppy purchase, surgery, veterinary fees, and transportation. Read the program, inclusions, and return-after-cropping requirements. Transportation or delivery is quoted separately. Availability, scope, and final fees must be confirmed before arrangements are made. Expressing interest creates no charge or obligation.

Plan for ongoing food, veterinary care, training, and the required health testing as part of responsible ownership.

What support comes with the partnership?

• Included guidance: Lifelong individualized training guidance from me by phone, text, and video; written nutrition and development resources; homecoming coaching; community access; help finding activities and training opportunities; and lifelong placement support. There is no additional charge for this owner coaching.

• Your puppy’s information: Age-appropriate vaccination and parasite-care records, microchip identification, registration terms, and the written protections stated in the final placement documents.

• Separately arranged services: Board and train, boarding, transportation, and other optional services require separately agreed availability, scope, and fees. Included owner coaching is not billed as additional training.

• Your continuing responsibilities: Daily care, routine and emergency veterinary care, suitable training and containment, required health testing, candid updates, and cooperation under the agreement.

See what mentorship looks like through each life stage. Current JDV owners have unlimited access to me by text and phone. I also offer video calls when a demonstration would help.

How should I compare Beauceron breeding programs?

Get to know the dogs and the person breeding them. Look at the parents’ actual health records, how the puppies are raised and matched, what their grown offspring are like, and what help you can expect after bringing your puppy home. Read the agreement and ask what the price includes. Those details help you understand what you are choosing.

Use parent-specific evidence, owner experiences, and current pairing information to evaluate JDV. Choose a program whose priorities and commitments you understand and welcome.

I only want a companion. Why does preservation matter?

A wonderful companion is central to what we breed for. The qualities you hope to enjoy every day—character, intelligence, physical capability, and breed identity—are also qualities worth preserving.

I plan the breeding, evaluate the puppies, and help you raise and train your dog. Keeping our dogs intact supports their natural development and preserves the opportunity for selected dogs to contribute to future generations.

You do not need ambitions to become a breeder or exhibitor. You do need to understand and welcome the responsibilities of your dog’s placement, including JDV’s written-consent requirements for breeding or sterilization and the agreement’s emergency-care provisions.

I want you to understand why we do this and what your responsibilities will be before you commit. Read how intentional breeding and natural hormonal development fit into our preservation approach.

What does preservation participation require?

Preservation partners commit to cooperating with JDV’s breeding program. Females with breeding potential are placed with that expectation. JDV retains breeding rights, selects dogs and pairings, and directs reproductive decisions; independent breeding rights are not offered.

Subject to health and welfare, JDV may seek two Qualifying Litters from a Female Preservation Candidate, subject to sequential evaluation; additional litters are optional; a Male Preservation Candidate’s owner agrees to cooperate as reasonably necessary for JDV to obtain at least three Qualifying Litters. A Qualifying Litter has at least four puppies born alive and remaining alive through eight weeks. Unsuccessful attempts and non-qualifying litters do not count. No attempt proceeds when medically unreasonable or contrary to welfare. Selection considers health, structure, temperament, pedigree, and reproductive fitness; designation does not guarantee breeding. JDV pays authorized breeding-specific expenses. Each event requires prior written authorization and a signed Breeding Addendum.

How do video calls work?

For ear posting, I provide instruction and weekly video calls during the first few weeks. All owners can request video coaching for transition and early development, and individualized guidance continues throughout your dog’s life.

How does breeding fit into our family’s schedule?

A female may travel with me for up to one week for breeding. She stays with us for about six weeks for whelping and nursing, beginning one week before her due date and continuing until the puppies are weaned.

For males, I arrange breeding or collection locally without the dog leaving his owner’s home. Access is needed for up to three days at a time, with one to three weeks’ notice. Each event’s timing, care, travel, expenses, and return arrangements are confirmed in the breeding addendum. JDV pays authorized breeding-specific expenses; owners pay ordinary care and required OFA testing.

What testing, consent, and communication are required?

For every Preservation Candidate, owners must complete and submit hips, elbows, an echocardiogram, and an ophthalmologist eye examination to OFA no later than 30 months of age, pay for those tests, and provide JDV complete results. Keep JDV informed of significant health, temperament, structural, developmental, or household changes. Reproductive use requires JDV’s prior written authorization and a signed event-specific Breeding Addendum. Sterilization is never required by JDV. Females may be sterilized at seven years of age; males are expected to remain intact for life. Earlier sterilization of a female or sterilization of a male requires JDV’s prior written approval. Approval is not required when a veterinarian determines sterilization is immediately necessary to protect life or prevent substantial suffering and delay would be medically unreasonable. Notify JDV promptly and provide the veterinary record. Owners retain responsibility for routine and emergency veterinary care.

Why is JDV listed on a female’s AKC registration?

You provide your female’s permanent family home and make everyday care decisions. Angie Robertson remains permanently named alongside you on her AKC certificate to prevent unauthorized transfer and litter registration and preserve JDV’s breeding authority. Both require her prior written authorization and participation. This registration safeguard does not give JDV general possession, custody, entry into your home, veterinary control, or household authority. Temporary stays for an authorized breeding or litter are agreed separately in writing. Male Preservation Candidates and Companion Placements receive sole AKC title in the owner’s name, subject to JDV’s continuing reproductive authority. The Bill of Sale states registration status.

Do I have to show or earn titles? Are there incentives?

Showing and AKC performance or working titles are encouraged, not required. Each Female Qualifying Litter earns $1,000. If the female is already an AKC Champion and has at least one AKC performance or working title when bred, her owner may elect $3,500 total cash or one available JDV puppy at no purchase price instead of all cash for that litter. The puppy alternative replaces the entire cash incentive, is non-transferable, and follows JDV’s ordinary matching process and then-current agreement. A Male Qualifying Litter earns $1,000 only if the male already holds both title requirements when bred. Without both titles, no male litter compensation is earned.

What happens after I apply?

Complete the application, electronic signature, and $200 deposit to enroll. I call within one week of completed enrollment to build rapport and clarify your priorities. I review applications and contact applicants as litter availability develops, after puppies are born, and as evaluations reveal suitable matches. A specific litter, puppy, designation, or placement date is not guaranteed. Matching follows suitability rather than deposit order.

Are there naming or lifetime return commitments?

JDV follows the French annual-letter naming tradition: B for 2026 and C for 2027, with the kennel suffix “du Joie de Vie.” The application explains the call-name and registered-name requirements. Contact me before selling, gifting, rehoming, surrendering, or otherwise permanently placing your dog. I will help identify an appropriate plan and accept voluntary surrender. This gives JDV no right to take or demand possession.

What happens if someone breeds without authorization?

I want these responsibilities understood before you accept a puppy. For one unauthorized breeding resulting in one litter, the agreement allows JDV to elect either $10,000 in liquidated damages or proven damages and available equitable relief, but not both for the same injury. Other unauthorized reproductive use permits proven damages and lawful equitable relief. The agreement also provides notice and a reasonable opportunity to cure a curable, non-emergency breach. It does not authorize trespass or self-help seizure. Please read the full provisions and bring me your questions before signing.

Read before you commit. Read the Puppy Preservation Partnership Agreement (PDF) · Read the plain-language partnership explanation.

The Puppy Preservation Partnership Agreement is signed only after a specific puppy and placement designation have been offered and accepted. It is separate from the initial waitlist agreement. The Bill of Sale records the transaction and transfer; each breeding requires a signed event-specific Breeding Addendum. Read the full agreement and ask me about anything you do not understand before signing.

Staying connected

How does your work influence the way you raise dogs?

I founded Coordinated Systems Restoration (CSR) and serve as founder and Practice Director of CSR Strategic Health Advisory. My continuing study of biology, physiology, regulation, and reproductive health informs how I think about development, recovery, and care at JDV.

Following our dogs through life and across generations gives me more questions to study. I bring what I learn back to our program and to the way I teach owners. Read more about my background and what matters to me.

What does staying in touch look like?

You have an ongoing relationship with me—the person who planned the pairing, knows the pedigree, and evaluated your puppy. You can call or text me without a limit on that access. Video calls are available when showing you something would help. We keep talking as your questions change through the years.

Can I ask for help if things are difficult?

Yes, please do. Call or text me when you are unsure, worried, or struggling with something. I want you to feel comfortable being honest. Tell me what is happening and send a video if you can. I’ll explain what I see and help you work through it.

Do I need an advanced training background?

No. You can be new to the breed or to training. I want you to be willing to learn, practice consistently, handle your dog kindly, and tell me when you need help. Showing and earning titles are encouraged and incentivized, but they are not required.

What values guide the JDV community?

Be kind to each other, care well for your dog, and keep your commitments. I love seeing an experienced owner help someone who is just starting. As a military family, we also have a special appreciation for military families, first responders, and others who serve their communities.

Reservations, matching, and deposits

No advance harlequin-male reservations

We do not accept advance reservations or deposits for harlequin males. Demand exceeds what our program can reasonably produce. When an individual harlequin male has been evaluated and is actually available, we will announce him and consider suitable homes. A written offer and acceptance precede his deposit and individual placement agreement. There is no advance harlequin-male waitlist or additional inquiry list.

Existing harlequin-male deposit holders may choose to transfer their request to a black-and-rust male, keeping their verified deposit credit and previously agreed price, or request a full deposit refund. Transfer is voluntary and must be mutually confirmed. If only a harlequin male will suit you, please request a refund rather than continuing an advance reservation. Until we connect, your response remains pending contact; silence does not change your preference, close your enrollment, or forfeit your deposit.

Existing harlequin-female deposit holders may keep their recorded request and wait voluntarily or request a full deposit refund. New future harlequin-female reservations remain closed at present. Applications for an individually listed available female remain open for suitability review. Black-and-rust reservations remain open subject to approval and realistic expected availability. Existing signed-agreement protections and previously agreed prices remain honored.

Applying for a listed available harlequin

An individual harlequin may occasionally be listed as available for consideration. Contact JDV with the puppy’s name before submitting a deposit. We review existing recorded harlequin requests for a suitable, ready match before offering the puppy to a new family. If no existing family is a suitable match and ready at that time, a new approved applicant may be considered. A listing does not mean every existing applicant has been passed over or that a puppy is reserved for the first person who pays.

Availability, suitability, and partnership commitments must be confirmed. JDV’s written offer and your acceptance identify the puppy before the final placement agreement. An inquiry, application, or deposit alone does not secure an individual puppy. Existing verified deposits are credited toward an accepted placement; duplicate deposits may be returned or, by mutual confirmation, applied toward the balance.

How we choose a home

I match each puppy’s temperament, developing abilities, structure, and preservation needs with the household’s experience, daily life, and goals. Among suitable homes, I consider readiness and compatible timing. Deposit date may help distinguish otherwise equally suitable, ready homes; it does not guarantee selection or replace suitability. A higher price or larger deposit does not purchase priority.

Which price applies?

Existing deposit holders retain their previously agreed puppy price, including when offered a harlequin. Increased prices apply to new applicants. The applicable price is confirmed in writing before a deposit or individual placement is accepted. Harlequin pricing describes the puppy being placed; it does not purchase a future harlequin reservation or priority. The initial deposit remains $200 direct plus the separate $6 processing fee, or $215 through Good Dog, credited toward the applicable platform price.

Existing agreement protections

Existing signed agreements continue to govern their refund and gender-availability protections. Waiting voluntarily does not automatically pause or restart the one-year period or waive an accrued refund option before accepting a suitable puppy. JDV’s inability to offer a suitable puppy must not be described as the family’s voluntary deferral. Any change to recorded color or gender is discussed and mutually confirmed.

Questions to discuss during matching and placement

How can I get to know the dogs behind my puppy?

Look at the parents' health evidence, see our developmental approach, and read owner experiences over time. Ask me why I chose the pairing and what I see in the puppy I recommend for you. Titles tell you something useful, but I also want you to know the dogs.

Can I discuss meeting the parents and temperament assessment?

Yes—ask me which parents or relatives can be met, what video or other information is available, and what location, welfare, timing, or biosecurity limits apply. A parent may live elsewhere. Ask about observations across development and any formal assessment that applies to the particular dog, including its date, setting, result, and limitations.

What does lifelong mentorship mean when something is difficult?

Tell me what you are observing, your dog’s age, the context, recent changes, routines, and what you have tried. A useful video can help describe a situation when safe and appropriate. Questions and setbacks are welcome. I want to understand what is happening, explain what I recommend, and help you feel capable handling it. Board and train has a separately agreed plan and fee; individualized owner guidance by phone, text, and video remains included throughout the dog’s life.

What should be clear before homecoming?

Confirm the puppy’s actual age and agreed transfer date, care and veterinary records, feeding and routine, training and equipment expectations, optional services, transport arrangements, and the applicable final documents. Ask about anything you do not understand before accepting a puppy or making travel plans.

Can I hear from owners with goals like mine?

Start with the selected owner accounts. Tell me what experience would be most relevant and ask whether an appropriate owner connection can be arranged with that person’s permission. A family companion, sport prospect, and service prospect each call for a different conversation.

Practical questions before committing

How long will I wait?

Timing depends on litter availability and an individual match. Selected gender is guaranteed; color, a particular litter, and a placement date are not. Most applicants request harlequin males, while JDV may produce only a handful each year. Being open to black and tan expands the suitable puppies we can consider. Voluntary waiting and the one-year gender-availability refund option are explained above.

Who selects my puppy?

I evaluate temperament, structure, movement, confidence, recovery, working aptitudes, and preservation potential alongside your household, lifestyle, experience, and goals. Matching is not based on deposit order.

Will a Beauceron fit my actual life?

Read the complete Breed Guide & Temperament for exercise, workday care, first-time ownership, children, cats, adolescence, barking, shedding, grooming, size, lifespan, color, and breed comparisons. Review health and parent-specific screening records. Explore service-prospect suitability.

What should I budget beyond the puppy price?

Plan for routine and emergency veterinary care, appropriate nutrition, training, safe containment, equipment, grooming, and travel. Optional cropping and development services have separate financial commitments. Review the specific services above and confirm your individual arrangements before committing.
