The Braque D'Auvergne is classified by The Royal Kennel Club as a large breed, typically weighing 22–30 kg as an adult. Hailing from the Auvergne region of France, this pointing breed is still relatively rare outside its homeland, valued for its calm temperament, stamina in the field, and striking black-and-white "blue" coat pattern.

What this means for your Braque D'Auvergne

Ear infections are worth watching for given the breed's long, pendulous ears, and hip dysplasia is seen occasionally given its size. As a rare breed in the UK, general veterinary experience with breed-specific issues may be more limited, so keeping thorough health records is especially useful.

Generally considered a hardy, low-maintenance working breed, the Braque D'Auvergne benefits from staying active well into middle age.

When is a Braque D'Auvergne considered a senior?

Under The Royal Kennel Club's size-adjusted guidance, large breeds like the Braque D'Auvergne are generally considered senior from around 5 dog years old.
