How to import Rottweiler into France - how to qualify him as "guard dog"

[jagcarma]

I read that Rottweilers can be brought into France as "guard dogs". Is this the only way to import one? And how do I qualify him as a guard dog? Thank you. Urgent!

Genealogical book recognized by the Ministry of Agriculture (in practice, all
Book recognized by the Fédération Cynologique Internationale).
Inquiries: www.scc.asso.fr
Or http://www.fci.be/members.asp?lang=en&sel=1
And furnished with the documents attesting to the registration to the LOF.
(Except for Rottweiller dogs classified in 2nd category, with or
Without pedigree)
2 - be identified,
With a European pet passport
Have a valid rabies vaccination

Training of at least 7 hours)
5 - prove that the dog underwent a BEHAVIORAL EVALUATION

Issue this assessment)

(See insurance companies)
