Breed history

The Belgian Sheepdog, or Groenendael, is one of four closely related Belgian herding breeds developed in the late 1800s. Named after the village of Groenendael in Belgium, this variety was refined by breeder Nicolas Rose, who favored the long black coat. Originally used for herding and guarding livestock, the breed later gained recognition for its versatility in police and military roles, including serving as messenger and ambulance dogs during World War I and II. Today, they are prized for their intelligence, elegance, and working drive.
