There is a lot of misinformation about the history of the Schipperke breed out there. We recently published a book, the first of at least two, which are a collection of original articles on the breed, carefully translated, so that people can read the actual history for themselves. If you have questions about the breed's history, we seriously recommend you buy and read the book. In the meantime, we will be slowly adding to the history pages with short commentary (with cites if possible) over time, so please check back over time to see what we have added!
