Aggie and Hank's #4 Male (Belgian Malinois/Dutch Shepherd Cross puppy)
I'm pleased to announce the arrival of Aggie and Hanks litter of Aggie and Hank's puppies born on Wednesday June 22, 2022.
I've marked these puppies Price down in hopes of finding them great homes more quickly. The cost to reserve a puppy is $100 which goes towards the purchase price.
These puppies will have the same characteristics and size as their parents.
Their Mom Aggie stands 27 inches at the shoulders and weighs approx. 85 pounds. Aggie gets along well with all of my dogs and loves everyone she meets.
Their Sire Hank also stands at 27 inches at the shoulders and weighs approx. 75 pounds. Hank is also very out going, but reserved with strangers. He's got a medium prey drive, but strong toy/ball drive.
I expect these puppies to have the same temperament as both parents and be suitable to be used for any job they're given!
Things that potential owners need to know about this breed are that Dutch Shepherds are loyal, reliable, alert, watchful, active, independent, intelligent, and intuitive. Obedience through modest specialized training and discipline can achieve remarkable results. Gifted with a true shepherding temperament, they work willingly together with their owners and can deal independently with any task they are assigned. They are neither aggressive nor shy.
They have a strong character and independence passed down from their herding ancestry. Their owners need to be strong yet fair leaders. Although their character and traits suggest a strong potential for doing police or military work, care should be taken that this breed's seemingly sole purpose is not overlooked for its otherwise well-rounded character.
While there is no perfect dog for everybody, this breed needs an active working lifestyle and an owner willing to make a commitment of proper socialization and training. Once the bond of trust is developed between the Dutch Shepherd and owner/trainer, their enthusiastic and intuitive nature needs little incentive or command to get them to follow through.
They are an active and versatile breed. They compete in dog agility, obedience, Rally obedience, fly ball, dock jumping, disc dog, tracking, search and rescue, protection sports such as Schutzhund, French Ring Sport, Mondio Ring and Service Dogs of America. In The Netherlands it is still employed as a herder and the instinct is still strong in the breed. Internationally, the Dutch Shepherd and Belgian Malinois are best known for use in law enforcement under the KNPV program. The Koninklijke Nederlandse Politiehond Vereniging (KNPV), or Royal Dutch Police Dog Association, was founded 27 October 1907, as an organization to oversee and test dogs for their suitability for police work. Dutch Shepherds with KNPV titles are sought after candidates throughout the world for police and military use, as well as sport competitors and personal protection dogs.
I screen prospective buyers before I send a puppy out. Dutch Shepherds very much like the Belgian Malinois are high energy dogs and need to have some type of formal training, at minimum basic obedience. They need to be socialized with everyone and exposed to everything possible in order to become a well-rounded dog. This is not a breed that you just buy and put in the backyard and forget about them. They are very out-going in nature and very easily trained. They'll do anything you want them to do for a word of praise and a good brisk rub and a pat on the head.
All of my puppies come with a 1-year Health Guarantee, Health Records, microchip, current vaccinations and current deworming's starting at 2 weeks old. They also come with a Puppy Starter Kit and a Life-Time of Breeder Support.
