MEET THE TEAM

SOFIE WUYTS


Throughout my life, I have been passionately involved with dogs and horses.

Over the years, I have had the pleasure of owning several dog breeds, including an English Cocker Spaniel, a Boxer, and the Doberman. However, it was the Doberman that truly captured my heart. My first Doberman companion showed me the world, from participating in shows to traveling as far as Budapest. We excelled in various activities together, igniting a desire for more.

Since then, I knew that there would always be a Doberman in my life. I had a clear vision of the perfect Doberman for me and what characteristics they should possess. The dream of breeding a litter myself started to take shape. After years of anticipation, I finally had the opportunity to pursue my passion thanks to Geert, culminating in the creation of our first litter.

GEERT VERLINDEN

Founder


My interest in dogs, dog behavior, and training began in my childhood. It all started when I got my first dog, Max, a Briard, with whom I participated in obedience training programs for 10 years. Seeking more challenge after a decade, I then acquired my first Belgian Malinois, 'Utamarou Des Deux Pottois'.


After achieving great success in IPO/IGP with Utamarou, I decided to venture into breeding Belgian Malinois myself. This led to the establishment of the kennel 'van de Utadreef' in 2003.


Prioritizing quality, I carefully chose my dogs from top bloodlines known for stable temperament and working abilities, establishing a strong foundation for my kennel.


Besides being excellent working dogs, 'the Belgian Malinois' is also known for its loyalty and reliability.

Over time, my kennel has gained global recognition, with our puppies being sold not only in Belgium but also abroad, including all European countries, USA, Asia, and more.


In addition to my breeding activities, I am actively involved as an international judge in IGP and show. I hold positions in the board of Sectie 1C and the Belgian Dobermann Club.

JESSICA VERLINDEN


As the daughter of... and an animal lover at heart, everything about dogs has been instilled in me from a young age.

I stood by my father's side from an early age.

I assisted with every birth of a litter and in taking care of the puppies until they were ready to leave the nest.

I was my father's biggest fan and supporter at the numerous World Championships he competed in.

And now, I continue to lend a helping hand wherever it is needed.
