- Appearance
- The
Keeshond (pronounced kayz-hawnd) is a natural, handsome dog of
well-balanced, short-coupled body, attracting attention not only by his
coloration, alert carriage, and intelligent expression, but also by his
stand-off coat, his richly plumed tail well curled over his back, his
foxlike expression, and his small pointed ears. His coat is very thick
around the neck, fore part of the shoulders and chest, forming a lion-like
ruff-more profuse in the male. His rump and hind legs, down to the hocks,
are also thickly coated, forming the characteristic "trousers."
His head, ears, and lower legs are covered with thick, short hair.
