The Belgian Sheepdog, Belgian Malinois, Belgian Tervuran, and the Belgian 
Lackinois are all the same breed, just different varieties.  In America, the 
AKC made them separate.  In other countries, they are still the same breed.  
Mals are frequently mistaken for GSD's by the general public.

Perhaps it is the Belgian Shepherd that is being mistaken for a long coat GSD.? 
The Malinois is a short coat and I have only seen one black.? They are 
generally tan with blk tips.? The Belgian Tervern is a long coated breed but 
also tan with some black in the outer coat.? The Belgian Shepherd is a black, 
long coated dog and sometimes confused with a flat coat retriever.? At any 
rate, their body types couldn't be more different.? 

Just some useless info stored in my head :-)
