Portuguese Water Dog breeders

The Portuguese Water Dog, known as the Cao de Agua "dog of the water" and the Portuguese Fishing Dog, is an intelligent, devoted and loyal companion. He has a high level of energy and stamina so requires daily exercise. The PWD is people-oriented and thrives on being made part of the family. Though not aggressive, he is protective and makes a good watchdog.

Today, the Portuguese Water Dog is seen participating in various dog sports and activities, including the show ring, obedience, water dog trials, and agility. He is also seen working as a Therapy and Assistance Dog.

The Portuguese Water Dog has a non-shedding coat and therefore, may be a good choice for allergy sufferers.

For more information about the Portuguese Water Dog, see the Breed Info section.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

If you are considering the adoption of a puppy of any breed, it is very important to be selective in choosing a responsible and reputable breeder. The Canada's Guide to Dogs website provides advertisement listings to responsible and reputable Breeders of pure bred dogs and, while there is certain criteria that must be met in order to be listed here, we cannot recommend, nor do we endorse or support any one of these listings. (For more information on selecting a breeder, see the articles on the main Breed/Breeders section: Information for the Potential Puppy/Dog Buyer.)

In addition to the Breeders listed here, the Breed Clubs generally include listings of member Breeders on their web sites and, if not, then a listing can usually be obtained either by e-mail or telephone. We do not randomly add Breeders to any listing. All Breeders listed have requested to be included either via a general link or paid advertising.

If a young pup is not an absolute requirement for you, then considering the adoption of a dog from a rescue organization or shelter is strongly recommended. Each individual breed section on the Canada's Guide to Dogs web site includes listings of Rescue Organizations specific to the breed. In addition, Breeders occasionally have young adults available and many also take in rescued dogs. To learn more about adopting a rescue dog, please see the Rescue Organizations & Shelters section of the web site. This section includes several articles and general information along with listings of shelters and rescue organizations that are not breed specific from across Canada.
