Litter update on 18 Sept. •
Time absolutely flies when you’re having fun. Raising babies is a ton of work, but always fun.
Now that everyone has been introduced to their new families in messages, I’m excited to share our Ends of the World.
Starting with my keeper, Splice 🩷 For once, I’m keeping a sweet one lol. (I’m just as surprised as you.) She’s showing the most balanced structure of the girls, a happy and thoughtful temperament that’s a nice blend of her parents, and lovely engagement on sheep during her intro that reminds me of working her half brother Okkoto, and I hope to see her confidence bloom the same way his did given her level of interest. Sheep and shows will be her future, time will tell what else we get up to.
Glitch 🩶 Ohhh my bold and bright baby. Who came into this world making me fight for him, screaming with personality since the day he was born, and who lives with a joy that is hard not to love. He is going to be spending the next few months learning foundations in Georgia and then getting some dog show and conformation experience and training with a friend of the program. His final stop will be back with his papa Ocho! We are so excited to share this boy’s future. He will be diving into sports and dog shows, and was our pick puppy for the litter in general both in structure and temperament.
Crawler 💜 He is staying close with a dear friend who has wanted a Séance baby for a long time, even after she met the little shit along with my other dogs. He has all the same forwardness of his parents, but got so much sweetness and a true joy for life from Ocho. His future is full of a ton of sports and showing off his stuff in the show ring.
Hoarfrost 🩵 Always eager, always happy, always ready to engage with a playful kind of malice and mischief. He’s one of those beauceron boys who love you with their whole heart, and want to give you everything he can while trying anything you ask, as long as they can spend the time with you. He’s headed down to NC to be a well rounded show and sport boy just like his brothers. I’m so excited for he and his mom’s future. He has very big shoes to footsteps to follow in, and I think he’s up for the challenge.
Solar 🧡 the sour patch kid. This doll baby is headed down to Texas with hopes of being a well rounded demo dog and dabble dog. She is just happy, all the time. Loves to cuddle, loves to go on adventures, loves to be involved in all the things. The puppy who would NOT let go of the herding ball when first introduced to the new giant thing, and the first to volunteer for puppy cuddles with calm sitting and eye contact as we wind down for the evening. I cannot wait for her to fill her mom’s heart with so much joy.
Plague 💚 Headed down to South Carolina to learn to be the perfect family companion. He’s my fluffy bear of a puppy, bold, stoic, and sweet. Always up for adventure… but equally up for a good cuddle after. He should enjoy his new routine, learning the ropes of the house and bonding with his new mom and dad as they settle into life with a bumbling baby dog.
And then there were two. These babies are still available for the right home and right people. For now, they have safe places to be and hang out for a bit, learning the ropes of being a puppy.
Magma ❤️ I love this girl, I’ll be honest I hoped it would be her since they were just two weeks old. Her personality is exactly like her mother, but sweeter, and I adore the way she demands my focus and sucks up training like a greedy sponge. She has lovely presence and instinct on sheep, and had a nice dose of interest for ducks without being rude, and I would like to see her in a home where she can continue to herd. There is every possibility she will end up back in my home after she does some puppy floating and trading. But if the perfect home is out there, I won’t deny it. At the end of the day her structure isn’t as much of an improvement on her parents as her sister’s, and I have to be mindful of the dogs I add to my home. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be going anywhere much in the same way her half sister Vega wouldn’t have. She will likely be a well rounded do it all dog as an adult, but will have big opinions and be a very thoughtful dog like her mother.
Impact 💛 oh my goodness, Impact. Impact is still looking for a home because this boy will NEED to do things. His toy and food drive is through the roof, the only puppy who has wounded me over a treat lol, and he loves to use his nose and followed some baby dog tracks when I was testing everyone. He is a doll, truly only full of joy and love, but he is a busy body with a mind that loves to learn, explore, and most of all - throw himself at anything that gets him a tug or food. He is FUN, but will not be suitable as anything less than a very active pet. He has some white and while not DQ size, he is not a puppy we want to represent our program in dog shows as a result. But he will do anything and go for any other goal you have for him with gusto and guts.

About Séance
Séance has a unique personality, often described as intelligent, confident, and bossy. A little aloof when first meeting people, but quickly warms up, throwing her butt into knees and muzzle punching people she loves.
You know she likes you when you start getting tackled in greeting. She enjoys independence and thinking for herself in various chores at home and the barn, but also has the versatility to thrive in formal obedience and rally. She is a road trip do-it-all dog, unbothered by trips to major cities, beaches, uncountable rest stops and gas stations, and many hotels, houses, and camping situations. Always taking the environment in stride and without a care. Truly our jack of all trades dog, even if she loves to try to throw her own brand of humor into everything.

Breeder-Reported Testing
Excellent level
Beaucerons Des Vents reports to performing the health tests below on their breeding dogs. Ask your breeder about the tests performed on the parents of your litter. Learn more about health testing for Beaucerons.
Hip Dysplasia
Hip testing reduces the chance of passing down hip dysplasia, which is primarily found in large breed dogs and can cause hip pain and the eventual loss of the function of the hip joint.
Eye Certification (CAER, registered with OFA)
Eye testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide range of hereditary eye illnesses including retinal dysplasia, lens luxation, and glaucoma, which can cause impared vision or blindness.
Cardiac Evaluation (registered with OFA)
Heart testing reduces the chance of passing down congenital heart disease, which can cause a range of symptoms ranging from trouble exercising to heart failure.
Spine (OFA, FCI)
A breeder may perform additional tests on their dogs that do not fall into these general categories. These tests may be more uncommon or very specific to a particular breed.
DNA Disease Panel
Genetic testing reduces the chance of passing down a wide variety of hereditary diseases of differing prevalence and severity such as Progressive Retinal Atrophy (an eye disease) and Von Willebrand's Disease (a blood disease).
Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
