Schipperke

Meet Belgium's "little captain," the Schipperke! This compact and robust dog was the original barge dog, a history that speaks to their hardworking nature. Don't let their small size (under 13 inches) fool you; they pack an intense, lively, and mischievous personality, ensuring there's never a dull moment. Bred to be expert rat-catching machines and alert watchdogs, their powerful build and stealthy, cat-like style get the job done.
