The Belgian Tervuren comes from a Belgian village named Tervuren. This dog is one of the four Belgian sheepdogs breeds (the Malinois, the Laekenois, the Groenendael and the Tervuren).
Those four breeds are considerate, in most parts of the world, as the same breed, but have been recognized (except for the Laekenois) in America in 1959 by the AKC. Brewer M. Corbeel was the first to create the Tervuren breed with a fawn dog and a black long-haired dog.
