Silver Beards

The Bouvier Health Foundation (BHF) would like to give our senior silver-bearded Bouviers the the respect they deserve. These valued family members represent a very precious selection from the Bouvier gene pool that has allowed them to continue to enjoy a long life.

You are invited to send up to three pictures and some information (anything from a few lines to a short story) about your 12-year-old or older Silver Beard to:

Marilyn Howard
ancestrialseeker@gmail.com

With your permission, we would like to share their stories and pictures on our web site and in the American Bouvier des Flandres Club magazine, The Dirty Beards Quarterly.
