which now belongs to Belgium and France.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The name of the breed also translates to \u201ccow shepherd,\u201d which explains its primary purpose. In the beginning, the Bouvier des Flandres was used as a shepherd for livestock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The breed was bred by monks who lived in the abbey and regularly brought dogs from England. So they crossed breeds and created the Bouvier des Flandres. For a long time, the dogs helped on the farm, guarded livestock, protected and even transported food in sleds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The dogs first gained recognition in 1913 after Bouviers, Rex and Nellie, participated in a dog show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The latest FCI standard was adopted in 1965, dogs have been actively used in countries around the world. Especially popular in the countries of Northern Europe, Spain, Ireland.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"appearance\">Appearance<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>The Bouvier Flanders is large, muscular, and healthy. The height differs depending on the sex. Males are 58-71 cm, and females are 56-69 cm. Males also weigh more than females. The weight of the males ranges from 36 to 54 kg, the females 27-36 kg. The hair of the dog is thick, medium length, there is also a short undercoat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The color varies: the most popular is black with brown spots.
