Welcome to the Dutch Shepherd Kennel van de Tiendschuur!

There are three varieties of the Dutch Shepherd (officially known as the Dutch Shepherd Dog): short-haired, long-haired, and wire-haired. Officially, these varieties differ only in coat type, with the same breed standard requirements applying to appearance and character. However, since these varieties have been bred separately for a long time, some differences have inevitably developed over the years.

We have been breeding long-haired Dutch Shepherds since 1977 and occasionally combine long-haired with short-haired breeding. We hope to breed her at the next heat in February/March 2025. We are then expected to have longhair puppies in April or May.
