Belgian Griffon

Lively, energetic, alert, affectionate, loyal and very easy to live with, the Belgian Griffon is neither timid nor aggressive. This cheerful little dog is very sociable and makes an excellent companion for children.

Its socialization and education are relatively easy but they must still be adequate.

This "little lady's dog" is nowadays exclusively used as a companion dog.

Attentive, alert, curious, and cheerful, he is a very amusing dog, making the joy of his entourage. Very devoted to his master, the Belgian Griffon lives only to be with his family, and to participate in all family activities.

Tireless and always ready to play with everyone, he is nice most of the time, but can also  guard of property and his own.

In spite of his small size, he is very brave and will alert if an intruder shows up.

He is very intelligent and loves to learn. His education is therefore relatively easy even if it must be firm and adequate, because he sometimes tends to be slightly stubborn.

An early and well-adapted education will prevent him from growing up doing as he pleases.

Very sociable, he has no problems with the residents of the household, human or animal.

Even if he is naturally sociable, he is however sometimes shy with strangers, which makes him a good guardian. His socialization must therefore aim to not exacerbate this natural shyness of strangers.

He can live anywhere and with all kinds of owners. Despite his small size, he has a very high need for exercise, but he can easily do that just about anywhere, precisely because of his small size.
