I have trained many Dog De Bordeaux's over the years. These dogs have a special temperament. They can be very stubborn and yet very sensitive. This means that only dog trainers with enormous experience and understanding should train them. What I like about these dogs is that they are wonderful guard dogs, they look the part, barking at any stranger that arrives at your property, and yet these dogs are mostly gentle at heart and mostly warn unwanted visitors to keep their distance, but most dogs of this breed do not like to bite, they prefer a to warn instead. They are wonderful companions and are usually great with children. Training a Dog De Bordeaux should start at a very early age and training should be kind. Dog trainers that use harsh methods of training with these dogs can absolutely ruin them.


So if you are interested in adding a unique and special friend to your family, think about  the amazing Dog De Bordeaux.

      I have a Malty-Poo (Sophie) which is almost a year old, weighs all of 5lbs and is the absolute love of my life. I hate to be apart from her for very long. She is actually my daughter’s dog and I tried to keep my distance from the puppy so she would bond with my daughter but alas as always, every pet that comes into our home will in the end bond with me primarily even though they are affectionate with everyone else. I suppose it is because I try to always love them, speak to them and treat them as well as I would anyone or thing that is living. I don't play tricks on them or scare them and have had to get onto my daughters fiancé for scaring her with a large ball that our Malty-Poo (Sophie) hates. She doesn't want to be in the same room with the ball, so I have hidden it from them.
      We even had a stray cat one time that was very temperamental, hissed at everyone and no-one could pick it up or have it in their lap. I found out to my surprise that it wanted to be stroked while it was eating and wanted me to stay there until it had finished like we were dining together. So I concentrated on it for several weeks never going beyond what it disliked and when we finally gave her away she would come up to everyone and get in their laps and purr wanting to be stroked and loved on by all of our family. I have found that just like raising our three children, nurturing them, that pets want and need the same things, i.e. love, attention, respect etc and will give you so much more back in companionship than you could ever imagine. It is worth the time and effort in patience to get to know each of them, finding out their likes and dislikes and welcoming them into your home just as you would any other guest or companion.
      It must be the most wonderful job in the world to get to care, nurture, teach and love so many special friends as these dogs that you train.
      Thank you for caring as you do for such wonderful creatures God has blessed us with in this life.
      Sincerely,
      Mark Whitley
