​Known for centuries along Portugal’s coast and prized for its strength, spirit and soundness, the Portuguese Water Dog is a loyal worker and companion. Medium-sized and robust, the breed possesses a waterproof coat and the ability to swim all day. Its coat can be curly or wavy and is black, white, or brown, or combinations of black or brown with white. - Courtesy of AKC

Falling in love with this fun, silly, energetic breed has changed our lives. With our three children, living in the rolling hills of the Southern Wisconsin countryside, we have a crazy and wonderful time with our Portuguese Water dogs, and we wouldn't change it for a second!
