Among the big black fluffy dog breeds out there, the Belgian Sheepdog also goes by the names Belgian Shepherd and Groenendael.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was developed to be a herder and guardian of sheep before turning into a companion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The fluffy coat of this breed most likely helped protect it from the weather and even attacking animals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This protective trait transitions easily into the household.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just as this breed used to watch over the livestock, it keeps an eye out for Intruders in the household.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It requires firm training, however, as it can be stubborn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
