Can Keeshond dogs swim?

Yes, Keeshond dogs can swim. Keeshonden were historically used as watchdogs on boats, so they were often around water. Due to this background, many Keeshonden have a natural inclination and ability to swim. 

However, while some Keeshonden may take naturally to water, others might need encouragement. Early exposure to water, gradual introduction, and positive reinforcement can help build confidence. Always respect their comfort level; not all Keeshonden enjoy swimming, and some might prefer to wade rather than swim in deep water.
