General Information

 The Belgian Sheepdog is an elegant, well-balanced, square dog that carries its head proudly.  It is highly intelligent, graceful, agile, and devoted to its owner.

As a member of the Herding Group, a Belgian Sheepdog is also an active dog, requiring regular exercise and/or a 'job.' Besides herding, the history of the breed includes service as war dogs and messenger dogs. 

Today, Belgian Sheepdogs are active in conformation, agility, obedience and herding competition. They work in herding, SAR, and as therapy and service dogs.  These dogs get much enjoyment being with their owners, participating in many activities.  

     

Welcome to FOLKLOR!

 Folklor Belgian Sheepdogs had its beginnings in the Northern Tier of Pennsylvania, in the early 1990's, with Lori Mann.  Lori selectively bred for temperament and structure. Her dogs earned multiple titles and are continuing to do so.  More importantly, her dogs became cherished companions to their owners.

 We are proud to say that the Folkor name will now be continued here in  Southeastern Pennsylvania, where we are honored to continue the kennel name and lines of these beautiful dogs.  Our goal is to promote dogs of sound temperament, correct structure, and good health.

Currently, we share our home with two Belgian Sheepdogs, Kadar and Kash, here in suburban Philadelphia. We train regularly at Suburban Dog Training Club and thank the trainers and members there for their continued guidance.  We are also active members of Raritan Belgian Sheepdog Club and members of Belgian Sheepdog Club of America.

We are forever happily indebted to Shannon & Randy Chilson of Kadar Belgian Sheepdogs, in Sayre, PA, for their support and friendship and for bringing us into this wonderful world of dog sports. They bred our Kadar .
