The Dutch Shepherd is a medium-sized dog breed that originated in the Netherlands. They were originally bred for herding and guarding livestock, but have also been used for police and military work. The breed is known for its intelligence, loyalty, and high energy levels. They require regular exercise and mental stimulation to prevent boredom and destructive behavior. Dutch Shepherds come in three coat varieties: short-haired, long-haired, and wire-haired. They are generally healthy and have a lifespan of 11-14 years. However, they may be prone to certain health issues such as hip dysplasia and eye problems. Proper socialization and training are important for this breed, as they can be wary of strangers and may exhibit protective behavior towards their family.
My litter of Dutch Shepherd puppies were born on December 10th. I own both parents and will send photos if requested. Puppies are now ready to go to their new homes. There are still 1 male and 5 females available out of the total of 8. More photos are available upon request. The rehoming fee is $650.00 on each.
