Belgian Shepherd dogs are one of a handful of dog breeds that do not smell like a dog, even when their coats are wet.

Belgian Shepherds are the only breed that can move their lower lip when growling - causing them to look more mean than they are. They are also the only breed that could smile, and often do.

The German police force are currently replacing all of their active duty German Shepherd dogs with Belgian Shepherd Malinois dogs.

There are four types of Belgians (Tervueren, Groenendael, Laekenois and Malinios) - all with the same fantastic characteristics, but with different coats.

Belgian Shepherd dogs are used as hearing, seeing and working dogs for handicapped people.

The 2003 Agility World Champion was a Belgian Tervueren. This breed is recognised as one of the best breeds for Obedience & other working disciplines.
