Florida Keeshond Rescue is dedicated to the purposes of rescue, rehabilitation and placement of previously abandoned, neglected, abused or otherwise unwanted keeshonden in permanent homes with responsible caregivers. We present and promote educational programs designed to increase public awareness, enrich the human-animal bond and ensure the welfare of the breed. We believe that all keeshonden deserve to live in peace without abuse of any kind.   Our guiding tenet is to do what is best for each keeshond in our program All dogs are spayed/neutered, house and crate trained, up-to-date on vaccinations and on heartworm and flea/tick prevention prior to placement. We require an application, home visit and signed contract prior to placing a dog with a family. We strive to make the best match to ensure the adopter honors a lifetime commitment to the adopted dog.  We welcome participation and are always in need of loving foster homes for our precious foster dogs.

Impact Summary from the Nonprofit There are many dogs that need assistance.  To better help these dogs, Florida Keeshond Rescue has established the Shadow Fund and the Hope for Dogs Fund to better meet the needs of rescued Keeshonden who are either in foster care or who have been adopted and have special needs.   Senior dogs and those who have been rescued from puppy mills are dear to the hearts of our board members and volunteers.  We understand that their needs may be great and they ofter require additional assistance in order to enjoy the best life.    The two funds have been established to help provide for the needs of these dogs including but not limited to:  medical care, specialty care & treatments,  medications, medical equipment and other expenses.
