📜History | In 1942, during the Second World War, Baroness Van Hardenbroek van Ammerstol began to recreate the Kooikerhondje. The first standard was published in 1966, and the breed was officially recognized in 1971. The Kooikerhondje's task is to lure ducks into a trap with its waving tail, rather than hunting them. |
