The Schipperke is an exceptionally bright, loyal, loving breed. They enjoy running, playing, and eating (not necessarily in that order). Although the Schip will conquer ANY threat, regardless of size, to protect his human family, he (or she) is above all else, a clown dedicated to providing years of joy and laughter to his human family. The AKC Breed Standard depicts the ideal Schipperke. The Schipperke Club of America decides upon the characteristics of a Schip, based upon their history and purpose. Therefore, in the United States, the disqualifications of a Schipperke for the show ring, as listed in the AKC's The Complete Dog Book, are a drop ear (in which one or both ears don't stand) and any color other than a natural black. Although other colors are acceptable in some countries, they are not acceptable here in the States as the typical Schipperke specimen. This means that a reputable breeder will spay/neuter a Schipperke of another color and will not attempt to breed them. Included in this site are many facts about Schips in general, and individual Schipperkes. The "newbie" will learn many things such as Schipperke personality and temperament, breed standard, strengths and weakness of the breed, and the like. The "experienced" owner should find the articles on breeding, rescue, and working Schips especially interesting, and any helpful insight is appreciated. We hope that you find this site to be an enjoyable experience. Welcome to the Schipperke Station!
