Welcome to Belbergere Belgians
Owner and exhibitor of Belgian Shepherd Groenendaels.
Home to the only Australian Advanced C Course herding titled Belgians. Our dogs know sheep!
I fell in love with this breed and got my first Belgian - Nellie, on Anzac day in 2001. In 2006, Satine came like a firestorm into our life. With Nellie, I competed in obedience, conformation and herding. Satine has competed in some conformation but prefered the herding world. Both girls having made Australian history by being the first ever Belgians of any variety to gain their C Course Started, Intermediate and Advanced titles in Australia. Both girls are now retired from herding.
I believe that not only should a Belgian look like a Belgian, but keeping the working ability and the health of the Belgian Shepherd is extremely important.
I live near Brisbane, Australia. I am a member of Dogs Qld, the NSW BSDC, Vic BSDC, BSDCQ and was a founding member of the Continental Herding Club Inc. We also have a CKCS - Isabella.
