Did you know that in World War II, the Belgian Resistance used Schipperkes to run messages between various resistance hideouts and cells? The Nazis never caught on.

"Due to their bravery and adventurous character, not to mention low center of gravity, Schipperkes are to this day known as excellent boat dogs, and are often found cruising the world aboard sailing yachts and powerboats. They are not prone to seasickness."

In Flemish the word "schip" means boat, and led to the name "Schipperke" (little boatman). They earned the nickname "Little Captain" and "Little Skipper", because the dogs were the "ratters", a very important function on a canal barge, and also usually the captain's dog.
