The Bouvier des Flanders, or Bouvier, or Bouvie is a very versitle dog adapt at many "farmland" chores. They have a rough full coat and will require more than regular grooming to maintain an "unkempt" appearance. Bouvies are outdoor dogs with a need for running room. They are friendly with family children, but like other dogs they should be supervised when strangers are around. They need a firm owner with consistent handling. Please read "Don't Buy a Bouvier if…" " before getting a Bouvier.
