    I would look on some forums which specialise in working dogs/schutzhund/mondio/knpv etc

    There are not very many people who breed Hollandse Herders in the UK and even fewer who really know anything about lines etc.

    Cheers guys, yeah I get the same, I'm currently emailing a couple of knpv kennels In holland. Not ideal but might be my only option.

    Probably teaching you to suck eggs, but temprament will be important when choosing your pup

    Absolutely nick!
    I Saw your tag line on another forum from 2009, asking where you could source a dutchy, did you get anywhere in the end?

    No, not really, it looked like an import if I was going to get one at all. But I decided not to at the time anyway (think I was having a flight of fancy!....I think I'm more suited to other breeds anyway and I always get rescues)

    I would go with SB's advice as I would guess the Dutch's in the UK are in those sort of homes.

    Are you going to do dog sports if you get a dutch?

    You may be better asking on the Protection K9 UK forum. If you google you should find it, as I am not allowed to post links here.

    Cheers guys,
    Yes I'm looking at bringing on a bitch and doing trials, I know the breed pretty well and I don't think anything comes close, especially with such high drive in work but so chilled when back at home
    In my opinion of course!

    Have you had a Dutch before? Would love to see photos :) They are a breed I admire, but have only ever met one in the flesh.

    I know of a couple of UK breeders but don't know enough about them or the breed to be able to recommend really. I would definitely ask on the Protection K9 forum as one of the breeders is on there so should be able to help you. :grin:
