Meet the breeder
I'm Patricia M., the breeder behind I'm Special Bouviers located in Fenton, MI. We have been breeding Bouviers of distinctive quality since 1979. Our puppies are available by reservation, excelling in conformation and performance. The goal we set and which we believe is still the most important, is to produce healthy puppies that make a well-rounded character in an adult dog.
