  • You’ve probably seen them on lists of non-shedding dog breeds or even alongside the Obama family, or you’re looking for a family companion to join in on your summer fun at the lake. Now you’re wondering if a Portuguese Water dog would be the right fit for you. They’re intelligent, energetic and independent, but they love their owners and are always up for a snuggle at the end of a long day of playing outside. So - are you ready for a portie?
    Thank you to breeder Lunar Nova for the use of a photo of one of their puppies. See their site here www.pwds.ca/

    A neighbor of mine passes my home on their daily walk. I thought the dog was beautiful and I inquired of the breed. His is black and white. What a stunner!

  • @brockvilleboomerangclub5528

    Awesome dogs. Our boy Oscar is a text book Portie. Smart, strong, mischievous, always happy and looking to please. Never wants his owner out of eye sight....and a bit bossy. He did not however take to crate training as the separation anxiety was too much. I type this with a 60lb dog sprawled on me, lying on his back, enjoying a snooze before more rambunctious exercise.

    I have a PWD I adopted her from a dog shelter in China. I searched for this video as mine no longer has a tail and I wanted to see how it wiggles :) thanks for the information!

  • @dippertheservicepupintrain1537

    Thank you for making this video! While a PWD isn't the breed for me im doing research on them because my therapist wants an "Australian labradoodle" but im trying to persuade her for a more reputably bred and sorced dog and so far the PWD matches everything she wants in a doodle

    I have a black and white PWD with curly hair. I don't brush it much since it will just get frizzy and then it will matt more easily. I just trim it short for summer and let it grow when it gets colder.

    I saw one of these dogs at the park today in Buckeye Arizona, which is what drew me to search for this video. It was a beautiful dog. The video stated that these dogs can be susceptible to genetic diseases. What kind of genetic problems can be expected with this breed?

    WHy are purebed dogs more vulnerable to genetic defects and illnesses than mixed breeds? I thought an un-tampered-with older breed would be healthier...

    • @TalentHounds
      @TalentHounds  Před 3 lety +1

      I think it depends on the breeders and the breed. Most responsible breeders are very concerned about the health of their pups and avoid inbreeding and genetic issues as far as possible. However Backyard breeders and puppy mills usually do not.
