Portuguese Water Dogs are very lovely and intelligent companions. They just hate to leave their master's side. These dogs are usually black in color but, they can also be in brown and white colors. Their size can be compared to that of a Wheaten Terrier. Back in 1500s, they worked for Portuguese fishermen helping them out with their fishing. They |
would carry a message from one boat to another and help to herd the fish into the nets. They would retrieve fish and things that fall into the water, guard the boats of the fishermen, bring in the fishing nets, and save those fishermen from drowning who fall into the water as these dogs are excellent swimmers too. They are commendable for their loyalty and dependability.
The introduction of commercial fishing equipments made these Portuguese water dogs lose their jobs. They were almost extinct at one point of time. Portuguese Water Dog breeders have helped to revive this breed through careful and regular breeding from around 1970s. In USA, there are thousands of Portuguese Water Dogs and many Portuguese Water Dog breeders too. The ones which are in Finland are still used for fishing purposes.
While selling a puppy or an adult dog, a Portuguese Water Dog breeder will ask you many questions about you and your lifestyle just to check whether you will be able to take good care of the dog's needs or not. No Portuguese Water Dog breeder would ever want his/ her dogs to be abandoned by their owners, finally ending up at dog shelters in a miserable condition. You can search for a Portuguese Water Dog breeder online if you are interested to buy a Portuguese Water Dog.
