About the Flanders Cattle Dog
The Flanders Cattle Dog was originally used to drive herds, as a draft animal and to churn butter. The modernization of farm equipment changed this and nowadays the Flanders Cattle Dog is used to guard farms and as a defense dog.
These strong-willed dogs do best with experienced owners who are able to devote time to their training and grooming needs.
