Keelypso Keeshonden

Welcome to the Keelypso Keeshonden webpage!

Our Keeshonden are raised in a loving home as members of
the family and are always treated as pets and family members
first and show dogs second. Pups are whelped and reared in
our home, not in a kennel, and we do our utmost to socialize
them before they are placed in their new homes, which
usually includes trips to the pet store to pick out a favorite
toy and, of course, some treats!

To insure our pups cannot be used as breeding stock at a
puppymill or even by an uninformed recreational breeder, we
spay/neuter our pups at around nine weeks of age, before
they are placed in their new homes. The surgery at this age
is very minor and the pups do not seem to be aware that it
has even ocurred. They are active and playing shortly after
the anesthesia has worn off and do not experience the pain
and depression often seen in adults and pups that are
several months old. Having this surgery performed prior to
placement means peace of mind for us and one less thing
with which the new families have to deal. For anyone
interested in showing, the pup would be left intact, but with
strict contractual stipulations that the pup actually be
shown to its Championship, followed by responsible
breeding.

Please feel free to peruse the various pages on this website
and check out our dogs, both past and present, learn more
about the pedigrees of our show dogs, and check out any
pups available or litters planned. Thank you for visiting
Keelypso Keeshonden!

The above pups are the offspring of Tia, Am/Can Ch Keelypso's Tea Biscuit, and Gibson,
Multiple BIS Can Ch Thistledees Braveheart Keehold, CHOF. Tabitha is from the first litter
born July, 2009 and Frisco and Harper are from the repeat breeding born September, 2010. We are
very pleased with the quality produced by this exceptional sire bred to our Tia!
