Chinese Shar-Pei History

The Chinese Shar-Pei originated in the southern provinces of China where he was valued as a hunter, herder, guardian, and fighter. The other breeds that came from China are the Chow and the Pug. He resembles the Chow in many ways and is more than likely related. He is thought to have existed since Ancient times. The Shar Pei's loose skin and extremely prickly coat were originally developed to help the dogs fend off wild boar, as they were used to hunt. A Shar Pei can actually twist in their skin and face in their opponent's direction. In fighting, they would twist in their skin to bite the assailant back. After the creation of the People's Republic of China, the dog population in the country was nearly eradicated and brought to zero. One fella named Matgo Law, helped preserve the breed and it might otherwise be extinct if it wasn’t for his efforts.



Nederlandse Kooikerhondje History

The Nederlandse Kooikerhondje, also called a Kooiker or a Dutch Spaniel, originated in the Netherlands. The literal translation for Kooikerhondje is “little cager hound.” It is a small spaniel-type breed of dog that has Dutch ancestry.

The Kooiker is a small, orange and white sporting dog. Very loving and cheerful, the Kooiker is able to adjust to situations very easily. Kooikers love to be around their families and play. They do well in smaller spaces but do well with a yard too. As long as exercise is regular, playing with their owners means a happy, healthy Kooiker.

Strong, affectionate, sturdy, and delightful, these are words that describe the great pet that is a Kooiker.

The Kooiker was created in the Netherlands in the 16th century. Kooikers were the most popular during the 17th and the 18th centuries and can be seen in paintings from famous painters like Rembrandt.

The Kooiker was bred in Holland as a duck decoy dog. They used their tails to lure the ducks to the Eendenkooi (a duck trap). Aside from working the traps, Kooikers also caught vermin around the farm to keep it free and clear from critters.

Kooikers, like many other breeds, almost went extinct after Wrold War II until Baroness van Hardenbroek van Armmerstol rescued the breed by working to expand its numbers.

Although the breed is still mostly unknown in the United States or Canada, the Kooiker has been accepted into the American Kennel Club’s Foundation Stock Service, which allows for recording of a purebred breed without it being a member. Once the Kooiker becomes recognized in the American Kennel Club, it will be labeled in the Sporting Group.
