The Belgian Laekenois requires intensive and early socialization and submission training. This dog breed could be demanding and dominant and they will not respond to harsh training methods. If you want to adopt this breed, you have to know that the training must be done with firmness, fairness, patience, consistency and reward.

Moreover, they need many physical exercises and mental stimulations to grow harmoniously. They are not recommended for the apartment or for people who live in the urban environment, because they love the rural life, with large spaces for running.
