OUR STORY
MXC Braques
MXC Braques was inspired by our three children Mirella, Xavi and Che. They were instrumental in our search for the perfect family dog, but also one that could fill the need for a working dog in the field. Our quest was fulfilled with the Braque D'Auvergne.
​
Our goal is to strengthen the breed through selective breeding. While the Braque D'Auvergne, is one of the oldest continental breeds its rarity has led to few dogs and fewer breeders focused on improving the breed. Our goal is not simply to produce dogs, but to produce field dogs that will bring joy to any hunting family.
Our Braque D'Auvergne
Our Braque D'Auvergne, Pepper, is an affectionate and intelligent versatile gun dog. She is high energy in the field and hunts at the edge of Gun range checking in often. She has had PennHIP Testing on her hips and OFA on elbows. She is NAVHDA Registered and ran in NAVHDA NA Test where she earned a 112pts.
In the house she has an off switch choosing to rest at the window or next to her people.
Why the Braque D'Auvergne?
The Braque d’Auvergne is an affectionate and intelligent pointer and overall versatile gun dog. This breed, despite their working history, does make a great family companion and is relatively easy to train. They are gentle and affectionate when home but when out in the field hunting they are intense and all business.
