Belgian Sheepdogs must be brave, intelligent, alert, and loyal to the family. When they're not restrained, expect these dogs to be always moving. They have the observation skills perfect for guarding, but their history in herding made them generally distrustful of people they don't know. This distrust may lead to aggression if they're not socialized properly.
Belgians who are trained properly serve as confident protectors of their owners and their property; they don't attack for no reason. They're also affectionate around the family and other people they know. They love to get your attention and don't like to be alone. Therefore, you should include them in all activities of the family. Give them lots of mental exercises. You can do this by providing them with enough training and games to play— perhaps through Buster cubes, interactive games, puzzle toys, and fetch games.
If you have concerns about your pet's health and/or behavior, make an appointment with your animal medical clinic Middletown, DE.
