How tall is a Nederlandse Kooikerhondje?

What a Nederlandse Kooikerhondje’s height measures

Height is measured at the withers, the top of the shoulders. The head and ears extend above that line. The American Kennel Club breed profile gives Dogs 16", Females 15". Choose the sex or size variety above where the source separates them. A range describes the published listing, not the height of every individual dog.

Ranked by the tallest height its standard names (16 in), the Nederlandse Kooikerhondje is the joint 80th smallest of the 297 dog breeds on this site. See the smallest dog breeds ranked.

Drawn at the same 16 in: Coyote, Croatian Sheepdog and Pumi. Same drawing, different listings: a coyote’s and a Croatian Sheepdog’s figures are each the lower end of its range, a Pumi’s the lower end of its male range.

This is a published species or breed reference, not a prediction for an individual animal. Where a range is supplied, both ends appear with the reading. Shoulder height and head height are kept apart when comparing animals.
