Puppies and puppy plans

Icks Eliza "Sasha"
On March 25, 2025, Icks Eliza was born. The long-planned mating combination between Bless and Tokaj unfortunately resulted in only one puppy. But what a little goodie. She seems to be a super confident little girl with a lot of curiosity. If she is like her parents, she will probably be a little long in body to become a star in the show ring, but on the other hand with the harmonious body that I like. We also hope for a great interest in training.

Since there was only one puppy this spring, we are planning for another litter in 2025. We hope to mate Icks Chianti "Elsa", with a really nice male. Likely birth October/November.

Our puppy buyers are amazing

I often think that we have the best puppy buyers in the world. It is a feeling that is very important to me. The day I can't be sure that the puppies will end up in really good hands, I will stop being a breeder.
However, there is no particular template that you as a puppy buyer should fit into. You can be a pensioner, but you can also be a student or a family with children. The important thing is that you have a genuine interest in your dog and want to let it experience things and grow together with you. You probably also want to take courses and train together with your dog. My dogs need a safe leader as well as stimulating experiences and tasks to become the dream dogs they can become.
Normally, I meet my puppy buyers even before the puppies are born. I think it is important that you as a puppy buyer can meet me and my adult dogs in peace and quiet before you decide to buy a puppy from me. I also want to see who you are so I can be sure that the Schipperke is the right breed for you and that the puppy will have a good life with you.

Early contact also allows you to follow the puppies from birth via frequent MMS updates.
When I know what wishes different buyers have regarding their puppies, it is easier for me to place the right puppy with the right family.
I hope for a lifelong contact even after you have collected your puppy. I also see that my lovely puppy buyers appreciate contact with each other. We have a Facebook/Messenger group where all puppy buyers who want to can join.
