News from Around The Dog World on our GREAT BREED!

2026 - The American Kennel Club (AKC) has released this year's CONFORMATION LOW-ENTRY BREEDS list.  This list, published by AKC annually, lists those breeds in conformation that during the previous year have had less than 3,500 entries in conformation across the entire year. With the trend in conformation being downward, its not surprising that more breeds have now fallen into this category. This year, as last year, our beloved BOUVIER des FLANDRES is listed in LOW-ENTRY Breed category. 

Our Breed Needs Your Support!   Come On Out!

News from ABdFC - Recently, the American Bouvier des Flandres Club ("ABdFC") - our parent club - held their Annual National Specialty.  We've heard word from them, that two of our Greater Washington club members did rather well at the events!

Michele Mullenix attended her first National with her boy Klaus and showed very well taking 2nd in sweeps and regular 6-9 month class. Emmy Wolters’ bitches Truffles and Sunny made the 1st cut in the BOB competition and Truffles went on to get select bitch.

Congratulations to both for a great showing!
We're PROUD of our members!
