Yes. And no, but I like the dog a lot. And he was working very well. And so I said, hey, Johan. I had my old English sheepdog and at that moment my girlfriend, before I was at that moment, she said, no, no second dog and this and that. And so one day she decided to split up and leave. So the next day I was calling for a dog. And I say, hey, if she come back, it's too late. Then I have my dog.

But OK, she didn't come back. OK, but that's history. But Johan said, hey, but the breed where I bought before I work together, they have a little right now and we can go. And at that time, I didn't know anything about the shepherds because that would be the first one that I buy. And but. I'm somebody, I'm always trying to be informed before I do something.

And so I checked a bit on the lake and this and pedigrees, and I needed to understand a little bit. And when we went there, the lady, Evelyn, it was the kennel van Krikkebosch, with Evelyn, who was the breeder. And so Evelyn, she explained me everything. And she showed me the pedigrees. And in Belgium, you know, we have the white pedigrees and we have the rose pedigrees. Yeah.

And in Belgium, you know, we have the white pedigrees and we have the rose pedigrees. Yeah.
And the white pedigrees, there's a full pedigree, a full generation of... Yes. And in Belgium, you can... If your dog has no pedigree, you can, by show... get a rose pedigree, but then only the name of the dog that did the show is mentioned. And that's an annex in the stud book. And so when I checked, the puppies, they would have a rose pedigree.

I said, hey, but this, how can I do, how can I compete? And then she explained to me, yes, but you are, you know, the mother of your Lachenrohr, the one that I bought in Max, the mother of that, She is a mixed breed between a Malinois and a Lackenois. So at that moment, I was worried. I said, holy shit, no, I want a purebred dog.

But Johan, on the way back home, he said, no, no, no, it's 100% sure. It's official and this and that. So then I decided anyway to take a Lackenois. But the Lacanois, the mother was mixed from Malinois and Lacanois. And later on, when I started to study well in pedigrees, I could see that also the mother of the mother, I'm pretty sure that also there was Malinois in behind.

I cannot find it back on the pedigree. But that's one of the problems in the early years.

And also, if you go back in history and you go back to the first docks that were registered in the start of the 1900s, because the first Malinois in the Belgium stud book was in 1902, 1903, something like that. I think the name was Vos, Vos de Polders. Okay. But if you check all the origins, the Malinois, the start of the Malinois and the start of the LΓ©guenois, they come out of the same parents.

They have not the same parents really, but the same dogs are in both pedigrees. So this brings that sometimes in breeding of Malinois, sometimes you get Malinois with like a little rough coat, a stripe of rough coat on the back. And this is the origins of the Lachlan one that is now more than 100 years ago. But we still see it.

And so when they did this intervariation, where Malin Max was coming out of, also there, the dog that they used, he had already given Malin was with such a rough coat on the back. Of course. And so we didn't lose so much of the coat by doing it. I didn't do it. It was Evelyn who did it at that time. So the coat of this second generation was already perfect Lachenois.
