General perception of keeshond's dense coat is that it is difficult to keep in condition.
However, it requires less work one would think of at first sight. Good food, sufficient physical exercise and suitable circumstances are the prerequisites for healthy and beautiful keeshond.

Double coat protects from cold and it also insulates from heat and rejects dirt.
During the coat fall-off period the old coat is brushed away and can be collected
(not in a plastic bag) and it is possible to spin thread of that.
Sweaters, gloves or socks made of keeshond hair are extremely warm and have nice, light grey colour.
