A little history ...
The Belgian Shepherd Tervueren owes its name to its village of origin, Tervuren, currently located in the province of Flemish Brabant in Belgium. It appeared in the 19th century, most likely following a cross between a fawn-colored sheepdog and a black Grœnendael. The Belgian Shepherd Tervueren was first used for the protection and care of herds, before showing off his skills in many other areas: security, research, exhibition, etc. The breed of the Belgian Shepherd Dog, including the Tervueren variety, was definitively recognized by the Fédération Cynologique Internationale on January 1, 1956.
