Schipperke Named Best House Dog in Flemish Lineage
The Schipperke, a Flemish breed meaning little captain, is praised as the best house dog for its compact size, hardy nature, and lively temperament. Originating in Belgium, it served as canal boat guard and folklore credits tail cutting to a 1609 shoemaker incident. The breed’s correct pronunciation and history are noted as the annual dog show nears at Coe fieldhouse from 9 am to 6 pm.
