Welcome about us Welcome at the website of workingdogkennel "v/d  Montferhoeve".  We hope to give you an idea of our  passion, the training and breeding of workingdogs for sports and practice.  We’re living outside the small village Kilder, having enough  opportuneties for both our hobby and passion, the training  and breeding of quality workingdogs for KNPV and practice.  Since 2002, Marion has setup her own grooming salon and  is therefore fulltime working with dogs. She’s practicing her hobby, the training of  German Sheperds at competition level in IPO at kringgroep "de Noordink" in Hengelo-  Gld (http://noordink.jomas.nl); her club where she’s besides boardmember (secretary)  also trainer for the protection work.  The breeding programm, whereby we only concentrate on the dutch KNPV-lines (mix  malinois and dutch sheperds), is managed by Marcel. The analysing of bloodlines and  combining suitable sports/practice dogs is one of his major hobbies. Besides this he’s  active as boardmember (chairman) of KNPV club “De Trouwe Kameraad” in Zeddam,  trainer/handler of policedogs at this club and also likes to put on the decoy suite for the  protection work by occasion.   Breeding programm availability of quality workingdogs In wild, reproducing is only for the healthiest  and strongest ones of the population. From  nature this is neccesary because of the  survival of the species.  Our workingdogs belong to the domesticated  variants. We breeders  are responsible now  for making the right selection of breeding  partners. Therefore we should only use  healthy, strong, selfasured dogs with extreme workingdrives and no nerve problems to keep and improve our population of quality  workingdogs. It’s a fact that combinations of a strong linebreed will give the most garantee on the  constant quality of their offspring. But besides the wanted characteristics also the  negative properties are reproduced much more dominant when using linebreed instead  of parents without any bloodrelation. Linebreeding should therefore be used with care  and demands good knowledge and investigation for bloodlines and their genetics.  When choosing a combination we discuss our plans with experienced doghandlers and breeders to get a complete view about what can be expected. This is our way to make a  contribution to the availability of quality workingdogs for now and the future.  Within our breeding programm we concentrate on the  linebreeding of Duco II (R.Seegers, Stokkum). This  bloodline has prooven to bring excellent serious  workingdogs for KNPV and practice purposes since  generations. This dominant reproducing blood will  garantee real dogs, more the type of police- than  sportsdog. This is our way to make a contribution to the availability  of quality workingdogs for now and the future.  we want to breed, have and train  the best, the hardest, the fastest, the toughest, the most intelligent, the most allround,  the best looking, the biggest workingdog ever ! we search the best prooven KNPV lines of top performing dogs we won't go for less than the best last update: sunday 8 april 2012 dutch version Workingdog type of dog we strive for solid nerves, well balanced character brave under all circumstances high temperament, extreme drives hard, courage, withstands pressure selfasured with good agression level atletic social to reasonable social free of genetic deseases Vision to our opinion Because of years of intensive training  with German Sheperds and Malinois  in all kinds of disciplines we have  developed our own vision in respect  to the ideal workingdog.   Health, character and working  qualities are passed by genetics.  Therefore good dogs are born not  made. Results in competition depend  on handler/dog combination and  training. Strategy workingdogs “pur sang” Our goal is to train and breed  workingdogs who can compete with  top dogs in KNPV and are well  suitable for practice purposes. To  achieve this we can and will make no  concessions with respect to the  working quality of the dogs we will be  using at our breeding programm. We are continiously trying to get the  best and most extreme workingdogs,  by breeding them or buying them  elsewhere.
