Puppies at 5 weeks, can you spot the brown onesI have been breeding Portuguese Water Dogs since 1986.  I’m a member of the Portuguese Water Dog Club of America and a Past Board member .  I’m also a founding member of the Portuguese Waterdog Foundation.    I’ve competed and titled dogs in conformation, obedience, agility and water work.


Our puppies are raised at home where family and friends help socialize them. Puppies learn about the outdoors as soon as weather allows. As with any breed, PWD’s are not exempt from heredity health problems. When someone purchases a puppy, it becomes an integral part of the family. Puppies should be whelped from a sire and dam that have been certified by the Orthopedic Foundation of Animals (OFA) to be free of hip disorders. They should also have a yearly eye certification currently being registered with OFA, to be free of eye problems.  Our selective breeding standards have eliminated the need to test our puppies for GM-1 Gangliosidosis (storage disease) a nervous system disorder and also PRCD PRA. All breeding stock are gene tested for these two disorders prior to breeding allowing us not to produce either problem.
All of our puppies are vet checked, eye checked and microchipped prior to leaving to their new homes.  It is also a goal of mine to have them just about house broken and familiar with a crate so that the new owners can start out on the right foot.

Click on the link above and read all about Stitch being trained from a 7 week old puppy.  Sue Ailsby blogged every week of training and if you are thinking about getting a PWD, this would be a great way to see what is involved with their thinking process.   I always tell everyone this is like getting involved with the smartest little 2 year old you will ever meet.

The more you know before you get serious about a puppy the better off we both are.
