Beauceron Movies

Hotel for Dogs (2009)

Beaucerons are not a breed familiar to many Americans. In fact, Moonraker (1979) may have been the first time thousands of people saw this breed. Now Hollywood has brought the Beauceron beyond dog enthusiast and Europeans, into the hearts of the masses with back-to-back co-starring roles. A mixed breed sometimes sited as a Beauceron also appears in The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001) as Farmer Maggot’s dog.
