Child Friendly

When properly socialized and taught, the Belgian Laekenois has the potential to become an excellent family dog. This is particularly true when the dog is properly trained. Even if they are typically excellent with youngsters, it is still quite important to oversee interactions between them, just as it is with any other dog, in order to guarantee the safety of both parties involved.

The lively and energetic temperament of the breed may lead to noisy behaviour, which highlights the need to instruct youngsters on how to behave with the dog in a way that is polite and kind throughout their interactions with the dog.

Children must be taught the appropriate methods to interact with and interact with the Laekenois. This is a very necessary education. Children should be specifically reminded not to disturb the dog when it is resting, eating, or engaged in play with toys. This is especially important while the dog is asleep.

In addition, it is of the utmost importance to impart knowledge about the need to avoid behaviours such as tugging the dog's ears or tail, as well as abstaining from embracing or kissing the dog's face.

The development of a good and secure environment for the dog as well as the children is facilitated by the implementation of these rules.

It is essential for the Laekenois to engage in socializing at an early age in order to develop the capacity to connect correctly with youngsters. As a result of their protective instincts, they may display herding tendencies or make an effort to "nudge" youngsters in the event that they see a dangerous situation or feel the need to collect them together.

On the other hand, these habits may be properly regulated via persistent and appropriate training, which will allow for a harmonious interaction between Laekenois and the family, especially the children.
