The Groenendael (black, long coat), Tervueren (long coat in red, fawn or grey), Malinois (dense, short coat) and Laekenois (harsh, wiry coat). The Royal Kennel Club says they share the same physical attributes and differ only in coat and colour, and the breed standard judges all four to the same standard.
Are Belgian Malinois good with children?
It depends on the dog, not the breed. Today the rescues mark 1 of the 2 Belgian Malinois listed in Lancashire as able to live with children. Where a profile says nothing, ask the rescue what age of children the dog could live with.
