History of the breed

The development of the Briquet Griffon Vendéen breed and the first selections began in a concrete way a little before the First World War. This work was mainly based on the Grand Vendéen, of which a smaller version was sought to achieve the standards of the current Briquet Griffon Vendéen. The breed’s numbers declined considerably at the end of the 2 world conflicts, then experienced a small improvement from 1946.

The Briquet Griffon Vendéen breed was definitively recognized by the Fédération Cynologique Internationale (FCI) on October 2, 1954. Its official FCI standard in force was published on January 9, 1999.
