Kie & Cyn's Netherland Dog, Shadow

Shadow is an AKC reg. Keeshond, a breed of intelligent, charming, elegant clowns!!! Keeshonden are named for the spritely spitz who was always at the side of Cornelis de Ghyselaer, (nickname "Kees")the Dutch Partiot leader who fought for the common Netherlanders during the French Revolution. Cornelis (Kees) dog (hond) was so closely linked to The Patriot movement, that when Cornelis was executed, Keeshonden were slaughtered, and to own a Keeshond could result in one's death. THe Keesonden faced extinction, however many loving Netherland people risk their lives to keep this wonderful breed of dog alive! Shadow shares the same love and dedication to his family as his ancestor showed to Cornelius and the Dutch people.
