The Belgian Tervuren is a bright and self-assured herding dog. Lots of hard work and challenging play is heaven for this tireless, do-it-all dog.

Why do you love the breed?

Teamwork is the main focus. Throughout a Rally course, you can talk to your dog to encourage and praise it, making it a great starting sport for those new to obedience.

Over 5 weeks you'll learn the rules and requirements for Rally Novice, the signs and positions, how to navigate the courses and refine your skills with a mock trial.

CALLING ALL BSD BREED ENTHUSIASTS!
As the Breed Health Coordinator for the Belgian Shepherd Dog Club of Queensland (BSDCQ), I’m conducting research to better understand the behaviour and temperament of our beloved breed.

To do this, I am using the Canine Behavioral Assessment & Research Questionnaire (C-BARQ), a tool that provides invaluable insights into canine behaviour.

Your participation will contribute to the development of a comprehensive BSDCQ health plan for the breed. By participating, you’ll help us gain a deeper understanding of common behavioural traits, which will support better breeding and socialisation/training strategies.

To take part:
1. Go to www.cbarq.org
2. If you’ve used the C-BARQ site before, you can click the "Log In" button to sign in.
3. If you’re new to the C-BARQ, you can click the "Sign Up Today" button to create a profile before adding your BSD.
4. Once you are signed in, you can click the "Add a Dog" link to get started.
5. First, choose “Referred by a breeder or breed group” from the list of options.
6. On the next page, select the group BSDCQ.
7. After you’ve selected the group, enter the group's access code: 554709.
8. When you have finished adding your dog, you will be taken directly to the C-BARQ evaluation.

Once completed you will be able to see your dogs report, which will be collated anonymously to provide an overview for the research outcomes. Plenty of time to take part as the group will be open until 31st DECEMBER 2024.

A copy of the final research paper and the BSDCQ health plan will be made widely available in early 2025. Please contact me for further information at [email protected].

The Canine Behavioral Assessment and Research Questionnaire, or C-BARQ, is designed to provide dog owners and professionals with standardized evaluations of canine temperament and behavior.
