The Berger Blanc Suisse is a breed
of dog from Switzerland. It is of the same origins as the White Shepherd and
the German Shepherd Dog, and has been recognized as a separate breed by the
FCI.
Temperament
Most
Berger Blanc Suisse dogs are gentle, very intelligent and learn easily. They
are loyal to their family and may be wary around strangers, but are not prone
to show shy or fearful behavior. Some people think the Arctic wolf was mixed
with the breed to create its caution, however this is not true. The Berger
Blanc Suisse breed derived from decades of evolution to a distinct breed type
from the German Shepherd Dog. The Berger Blanc Suisse are suited for a variety
of services to man from search and rescue to medical alert to therapy. They are
also structured and have temperaments to succeed at performance events such as:
obedience, rally, agility, lure coursing, barn hunt (ratting), protection
sports, dock diving, fly ball, truffling, and other scent/tracking oriented
training. They are natural herders, can cart, and are very well suited as an
all around utility farm dog.
The
character of the Berger Blanc Suisse is gentler and mellower than that of the
working lines of German Shepherd Dog, but are still very protective of their
people and dog pack.
