Not your own dogs, just out and about.
I seriously remember running into two the entire time I was in Texas. I remember because it was a big deal at the time. Both mals. One confo bred dog I was in a tricks class with and one working bred dog that went to the lake I would take the girls too.
Now, I see them often. Like... 4 days a week at least. Makes some sense because the head trainer at the agility place has one, many students have them, and one of the students breeds them. They must be one of the most popular breeds at this training club. I also found another breeder in the town. But they all breed tervs. I run into all 3 varieties now, although the black dogs the least and tervs the most.
I ask this because I went to petco and ran into a terv. Then driving back saw a malinois walking. I didn't know either of them.
Then again I ran into a briard at petco too once so...
Has the breed exploded in popularity recently?
