Behind the scenes Alex is working a lot the company. With his technical knowledge and 2 right hands he is always willing to help us.

Alex and Nicole are both active in the KNPV. Alex as chief of the Department of Utrecht, General judge, tracking official and, above all, as a member of PHDC Unitas in Scherpenzeel.

Nicole is also tracking official, judge search dogs and member of hsv 't Haartje in Amersfoort, this Association is specialized in the training of KNPV search dogs.

Alex and Nicole trained both with the same dog; Sjors. And Belgian Malinois by January 2008.  Sjors graduated in 2009-2010-2011 all 12 certificates the KNPV has. In addition, he participated in the NK search dogs. He ended 5th and if so just don't get involved with the last final round. Also, he participated in the NK object security dog and was 3rd. After that Sjors left to Leeuwarden air base for work and did what he does best; working.

Nicole bought a new dog a HH bitch, Evy. Alex a HH male, Syb.
 

2015
In september 2014 Alex is told he had stomach cancer and was not curable. Alex had plnned to exam in 2015 with Syb. But that was not feasible. Syb went to Chris Boelhouwer, his club-mate. Chris worked with Syb and obtained a beautiful PH1 certificate. In december 2014 Alex received the Golden pin from the KNPV.

 

 

19 March 2015 Alex died.

The enormous attention and interest we have received during the illness of Alex, but above all after his death was special. As many cards, flowers, visits etc. from all parts of Netherlands has shown us what Alex has stood for in advance to the KNPV.

While we were surprised by the condolence at home hundreds of KNPV people came over. From our own Department, but also far beyond. No Department is skipped. During the cremation the next day another plenty of interest.  Very special was the presence of Alex club. As a guard of honor were waiting for us in the room with on the end Chris with Syb. That was quite an impression.
