Synopsis

If the ultimate shaggy dog is what you want, then the Dutch Smoushond is just right for you. Originally bred in the 1800s to rid stables of mice and rats, the Dutch Ratter or Hollandse Smoushond as it is also called is a companion dog today. If you think these dogs look like yellow schnauzers, you would not be far off. It is uncertain what breeds were involved in creating this remarkable breed, but Schnauzers is a definite possibility. The modern recreation of the breed also incorporated Border Terriers to improve coat texture. Very loyal and bonded to their family, these dogs are less outwardly friendly to strangers. They make excellent watch dogs because they are very alert, tend to bark, and wary of anyone they do not know. Considered to be related to the Schnauzer, they are exceedingly rare outside of their home country of The Netherlands. So unless you are a Dutch citizen, you might have a very difficult time finding one of these charming dogs for yourself.
