The Griffon is a small and sturdy dog of square proportion with a very short nose and lustrous eyes. The head is especially large in comparison to the small body. The Brussels Griffon's pouty face looks almost human. To some he may resemble a miniature Boxer. Griffons come in red, red-brown & black, black & tan, and solid black. They are affectionate, willful and high-strung, but still very charming. Unusually sensitive and quite demanding, this breed loves to be spoiled. It must be raised in the house with the family. These dogs may be gluttonous or picky eaters and may be difficult to housebreak. They make good watchdogs and can be taught to perform tricks. They also love to bark. Their height is only 7-8 inches and weight is between 6-12 pounds. These little dogs are very active indoors and little exercise is needed on the owner's part. They get pretty much all they need throughout the day on their own. |
