#4 Despite the fact that the FCI continues to see a variety of Wolfspitz in Keeshond
and allows exhibiting representatives of both families in the same ring, there are significant differences in the appearance and characters of the breeds, which are better known in advance. So, for example, the Keeshond, although considered the largest representatives in the Spitz group, are much more compact than their German cousins.
#5 A more advantageous appearance is also an advantage of the “Dutch”
because at one time German breeders relied on practicality, preferring to develop working qualities in wolf spitz, rather than the glamor of appearance. There are different breeds and colors. The Keeshond has a richer color palette of wool and includes shades of gray, black, and beige. But the fur coats of the German Spitz have a traditional wolf color, in which the hairs are gray and black and white.
#6 Going for a walk with a Keeshond, get ready that passers-by will see a wide variety of breeds in your friend: from Chow-Chow to Caucasian Shepherd Dog.
And the point here is not in cynological illiteracy, but in the unique feature of the "Dutch" at the same time to resemble representatives of several canine groups at once.
