Belgian Shepherd Temperament - Is It the Right Dog For You?

How is a Belgian Shepherds temperament? Is it the right dog for you? Is it a dog you can live with? Belgian Shepherds, in Jack's case the Groenendael variety have quite specific temperament traits. I specifically adopted Jack as I was wanting a dog that could be both protective and could also run and be an adventure companion. I quickly found there are not many dog breeds that can do both of these. Jack gets very anxious if I play hide and seek with him and he can't find me.

There are 4 varieties of Belgian shepherds, The 4 varieties are the very popular Belgian Malinois, Tervuren, Groenendael and Laekenois. Athletically they are all similar, but vary in coat, temperament and drive, and also between working and show lines.

This is not a dog training channel. It’s more a “Adventures of Jack” channel, but it does include some training elements.

We try and release multiple shorts per week for entertainment and education. In turn help us grow by subscribing. If you have any ideas/comments on what you want to see with my Belgian Shepherd, leave a comment and I will try and create it.

This channel is solely for the purpose of trying to raise money for my dogs Cryptorchidism (his testicles did not drop) so he needs a procedure to have his testicles removed internally which is quite expensive here. Apparently, they can become cancerous if not removed.

Love your 🐕‍🦺
