Griffon Bruxellois Nostrils Background

These photos were gathered following the Dutch KC and the Dutch government actions regarding

the banning of breeding of 12 brachycephalic breeds because of BOAS.

One of the factors influencing BOAS, according to the research of both Cambridge and Copenhagen

Universities is nostril stenosis.

The following photos of French Bulldog’s nostrils were issued by Cambridge University to illustrate

the four grades of nostril stenosis.

Open Nostrils (No Stenosis)

Mild Stenosis (pinched nostrils)

Moderate Stenosis (pinched nostrils)

Severe

Stenosis (pinched Nostrils)

The Country Griffon Bruxellois Club of NSW Inc, via the club’s Face Book group, requested that

members share photos of their Griffon Bruxellois’ noses over a five-day period of time.

There are over 2,000 members of the group and they come from all countries around the world.

Members comprise of some of the leading Griffon Bruxellois breeders in the world plus many Griffon

lovers and owners to whom their dogs are much loved pets.

Where possible I have included the owners name and the country of residence of the dog. The dogs

come from a wide range of participating countries with a vast range of varying climactic conditions.

When available the age of the dog in the photo and/or the birthdate has also been provided to show

nostrils of Griffons from all ages. The information provided with each photo is the information that

the owners chose to include.

The Griffon Breed has three international breed standards and while there are some significant

variations in each standard, all three call for a healthy, cheeky, active little dog.

The UK standard (which is also the standard used in Australia and New Zealand)

Temperament: Lively and alert.

Head And Skull: Head fairly large in comparison to body, rounded but in no way domed, moderately

wide between the ears. Hair on skull in roughs rather coarse. Nose always black, with large, open

nostrils and definite stop between muzzle and skull. Relatively short, wide muzzle, neat lips, with

good turn-up. Chin prominent, in roughs furnished with a beard.

The FCI Standard

BEHAVIOUR / TEMPERAMENT : Well-balanced little dog, alert, proud, very attached to its owner,

very watchful. Neither timid nor aggressive.

Nose : Black. The nose is set at the same level as the eyes. Nose leather is broad with wide-open

nostrils. The tip of the nose is tilted back so that in profile the chin, the nose and the forehead are on

the same plane. Muzzle : The foreface including the nose is very short : it must not exceed 1.5 cm.

For the Petit Brabançon a correct foreface appears longer because it has no furnishing. A poor

expression is given by a nonturned-up foreface, just as it is by a nose whose top line lies below the

line from the bottom of the eyes and these are both serious faults.

The USA Standard

Skull large and round, with a domed forehead. The stop deep. Nose very black, extremely short, its

tip being set back deeply between the eyes so as to form a lay-back. The nostrils large

Thus far the breed has been fortunate because it has not reached the extremes of popularity

experienced by other brachycephalic breeds. This means that the puppy farmers and commercial

breeders have not had the interest in destroying the breed through greed.

Interestingly some pet owners commented on the difference in health between the griffon they

have from an unethical breeder and the Griffon they have from an ethical breeder. Griffons

generally meet the breed standards as healthy sturdy dogs

We thank everyone for participating in this.
