About Keeshond
Country of Origin, History of the breed
In its veins runs the blood
of the Samoyed, Chow Chow, Elkhound, and Pomeranian.
Description
Keeshonden are compact little
dogs with oblique chestnut eyes, erect triangular
ears, and its medium-length tail rolled on
its back. It has a cream or pale gray undercoat
and a luxurious outer coat that comes in shades
of gray with black tips and stands away from
the body.
|
 |
Its coat always appears to have
just been washed and combed. The markings are quite
definite and there are distinctive pale "spectacles",
a delicate dark line running from the outer corner
of each eye toward the lower corner of each ear.

Do you know how many calories your Keeshond needs every day and how many cups of food you should be giving it every day? Click here to use our Keeshond Calorie Calculator.
Height
Dogs 17-19 inches (44-48cm.)
Bitches are 10% less.
Weight
Some sources say 55-66 pounds (25-30kg.)
while others say 35-45 pounds.
Temperament
An excellent children's companion,
lively, intelligent, very alert, affectionate, loyal,
friendly, and generally outgoing. The Keeshond loves
everyone and needs to be part of the family activities.
They are generally good with other pets, although
some individuals are reserved or timid, and should
be socialized extensively as puppies. They like
to bark and are good watchdogs because of its notable
gift for warning of danger.
Will be okay in an apartment although
they should at least have an average-sized yard.
Keeshonden prefer cool climates; they cannot withstand
the heat well due to their thick coats.
Exercise
& Training
This breed needs to be taken on
a daily walk and a good run in a safe, open field
each day. This breed is fairly active indoors. When
a Keeshond spins in circles it is a sign he needs
more stimulating exercise. The Keeshond is a very
bright dog as evidenced by its level of achievement
in obedience work. It needs patient, consistent
training, devoid of harsh punishments.
Being an intelligent dog, most
problems with Keeshonden stem from the dog inventing
its own activities (often destructive ones, like
digging and chewing).
Grooming
Daily brushing of the long coat
with a stiff bristle brush is important to maintain
the coat and ward off doggy odor. Brush with the
grain first, then lift the hair with a comb, against
the grain, lay it back in place. Bathe or dry shampoo
only when necessary, generally once or twice a year.
The dense undercoat is shed heavily twice a year
in spring and fall. During the "blow,"
a Keeshond should be groomed once or twice a week
to facilitate rapid removal of the dead undercoat.
Health
Issues
Keeshonden are prone to hip dysplasia,
luxating patellas (trick knee), epilepsy, Cushing's
disease, hyperparathyroidism, and hypothyroidism.
Von Willebrand's disease has been known in Keeshonden
but is not common. Keeshonden are a prime risk for
bloat. They can also get colds and gain weight if
not taken care of properly.
