The Belgian Shepherd is a variation on the Malinois, with most of its breed being dark or black with long, elegant fur and a long muzzle with big, upright ears. Though they, too, were originally bred for herding livestock, the Belgian Shepherd is known for its ability to form tight relationship bonds with its owners.

These bonds will last the length of its life, which has an expectancy of 10 to 12 years. These dogs are greatly suited for life in a family, and are both intensely loyal as well as highly intelligent. They’re quick to pick up training, and have a relaxed demeanor that is well suited for homes with children and other animals.

On the other hand, the Belgian Shepherd is a high energy dog, and would do well in a home where they are able to get plenty of exercise for both their mind and their bodies.
