Club

The Berger Picard Club of America was founded to protect and promote the breed in the United States. We protect our breed by health testing our breeding stock and encouraging new owners to do the same. We want healthy dogs so we take this very seriously.

Meet the Picard

Simply called Picards! The Berger Picard is a medium-sized, well-muscled dog, slightly longer than tall with a tousled yet elegant appearance. Their ears are naturally erect, high-set and quite wide at the base. Their eyebrows are thick, but do not shield their dark frank eyes. Yes, they really do smile!

Puppies

Types of Breeders In your search for a puppy, you will run across different types of breeders. It’s important to be aware of the pros and cons of each. We encourage you to buy a puppy from a ‘reputable hobby breeder’ or ‘experienced breeder’ rather than a puppy mill, commercial breeder or backyard breeder.
