Help Us Help Briards

Every year there are numerous Briards who are lost, abandoned, or end up in shelters as a result of changes in their owners' lives. Sad to say, many shelters do not have space available to care for these dogs until a suitable, permanent adoptive home is found. We need your help to bring these dogs into proper foster care, to ensure that they are healthy and to find loving, long-term homes. Donations to the BCA Rescue Trust help us carry on this mission.

The seed money for the trust came from member donations to the Briard Club of America's rescue fund. The BCA provided fund monies to the rescue trust when the trust was first established. Further generous funding was provided by the Pedigree Foundation. However, the trust relies principally on the donations of private individuals for its operating funds.

The BCA Rescue Trust is designated by the IRS as a 501(c) (3) organization. All donations are deductible to the full extent allowed by law. To donate, please make your check out to the BCA Rescue Trust, and send it to:
