Keeshond.
Keeshond, breed of nonsporting dog, long popular in Holland, where it was a riverboat pet and watchdog. The breed is named for a dog that in the 18th century
became the symbol of the party of the middle classes in opposition to the prince of Orange. Probably of Arctic origin, the keeshond is related to the Chow Chow,
Norwegian Elkhound, Pomeranian, and Samoyed. With changing political conditions and the advent of larger barges with room for larger dogs, the breed declined in
popularity, but was revived in 1920. Alert and intelligent, the dog is a perfect companion. Distinctive features are the marking ("spectacles") around the eyes and the
luxurious gray and black coat that forms a lionlike mane around neck, shoulders, and chest. The hind legs and tail are also profusely covered with hair. The ideal height
is 46 cm (18 in) for males and 43 cm (17 in) for females.
