Faiva has been successful in breeding dogs that are very competitive
in the show ring. This winning conformation and attitude transfers from
the show ring to daily life. The same "up" attitude of the show ring provides
a confident and dependable companion for the home. A winning conformation
provides the basis for a healthy pet for years to come. Although Faiva predominately
breeds dogs to be competitive in the show ring, the one critical requirement
to owning a Faiva Bouvier is for the owner to provide a loving and adequate
environment for the
care of their new dog.
An important component in purchasing a new dog is the breeder of the
dog. The breeder should be knowledgeable of the breed. They must have not
only book knowledge; but also have real world experience; this is invaluable
to the new owner. Having a contact for information on the care and training
of a new puppy, is essential. Not all breeds of dogs are the same and the
way you deal with a problem is different for Bouviers as compared to some
other breed. Additionally, there is variation among Bouviers. Each has
their own personality and ways of dealing with a new situation.
The Bouvier is very intelligent and learns very quickly. This means
the owner must be as smart as their dog, which can sometimes be a challenge.
Understanding how the Bouvier thinks and helping you establish the "pack"
order with your new dog is critical to having a happy, well adjusted canine
in your family.
