About the Breeder
A little about us
We, Andreas and Carmen both originally from Germany and living in the beautiful surroundings of Adelaide/South Australia since 2005, have established the kennel CARMANDY BRIARDS in 2014. We are aiming to breed high quality Briards for the love and enjoyment of these wonderful breed.
Why we got involved in breeding
We fell in love with this breed in Germany and brought our first briard with us when migrating to Australia. As our beautiful Ayla left us it was hard to get a briard as there weren't many breeders in Australia so we decided to breed this beautiful breed.
Our special touch
We raise our puppies in the house with all human interactions and also using the Puppy Culture program.
