Dutch Herder playing with his owner in the garden.

The Dutch Shepherd Dog is a medium-sized, muscular herding breed of dog from the Netherlands.

Dutch Shepherds were almost pushed to the brink of extinction after World War II when breeding in the Netherlands was stopped.

It is believed to be the most competent of all shepherd dogs, especially when it comes to agility, obedience competitions, guard duty, herding.

The rough-haired Dutch Shepherd's coat is so curly that the brindle pattern is hidden.

The Dutch Shepherd originates from the Netherlands, where in the 1800s it began to diverge from its cousins, the German and Belgian Shepherds.
