Originating in Belgium, the Schipperke is known for its curiosity and intelligence. These small dogs were originally bred for hunting vermin on ships and canals, earning them the nickname “little captains”. Schipperkes are agile, active, and require regular exercise. They have an independent streak but are also very loyal to their families. They make excellent watchdogs due to their alert nature and tendency to bark at unfamiliar things.
