Hehe. Tomorrow I am getting a belgian tervuren to replace our aging Basque Shepard Dog who can no longer herd. This is now going to be our 8th current dog.
The other 6 are two golden retrievers, one chorkie (My sister dog >.<) a Karelian Bear dog (He is pretty b.a.m.f) a Basenji, and two Czechoslovakian Wolfdogs. |

| Basically what you are getting is a German Shepard. And I don't like German Shepards all that much to be honest. |

Look into getting a Malinois Twigs, they're amazing dogs. They use them as police dogs in Europe, and they're starting to take over police dog jobs in the US too. The US Secret Service uses them exclusively for personal protection dogs. They're extensively used by US armed forces in the Middle East, and Seal Team 6 used them while they were raiding Bin Laden's compound. I have one, and she's by far the neatest dog I've ever had. |

| Well they are both the same type of dog just tervurens have the shagginess of the Belgian Sheepdog and its energy combined with the colors of the Malinois. |

Well, they were both bred for different purposes. Methinks you should get the tervuren for herding, and get a malinois too for it's pure awesomeness. Oh and Israel uses Malinois too. |
