Stud recommendations

I have a wonderful schipperke who I purchased from a reputable breeder. Yes, I have breeding rights. Excellent temperament, she’s forward, confident, happy, fun to train, nothing phases her, travels beautifully, very socially appropriate, loves everyone - kids, elderly, dogs, other animals, everyone - the kind of dog that someone who wants a schipperke should own. We are involved in a variety of sports and will start trialing soon, her first shows are coming up, and pending health testing, provided all goes well, I plan to breed her. I’m looking for males that are also health tested dogs, and am particularly looking for dogs with a high degree of athleticism, prey drive, and desire to play. I’ll be very picky about temperament and structure. As a side note, as there is always concern with breeding dogs, I am not a first timer, and I don’t need lectures on whether or not I should be raising puppies. Puppies will be raised with the intent of going to sport and pet homes, with plenty of exposure to new things, opportunities to play and challenge themselves, and some very early training exposure. If you have the mind to try to chastise me on a purebred dog forum, take a step back and look in the mirror. To everyone else, please send me your recommendations! Dogs you’ve met, dogs you admire, breeders you think I should talk to. Thank you!

Traveling abroad with docked schipperke

Per the title, my schip has a docked tail. I will be bringing her to Belgium with me later this year and am wondering if this will be an issue. Anyone have docked dogs or experiences with other people’s docked dogs vs the public in that area of the world?
