THE SPANISH WATER DOG

The Spanish Water dog is an example of multifunctionality. Its dedication to work in the company of man is in its roots. Distinctively they have been working dogs and still today, there are examples at the foot of the mountains and in the open countryside working as sheep dogs, in salt or mud flats working as retrievers, on the coast lines of Andalucia and Cantabria on fishing boats, helping the fishermen, with men who generation after generation have been accompanied by this dog.

Thanks to the arduous work and the dedication and fondness of the breeders, united in a constant work to encourage and protect the breed of the Spanish water dog, in a relatively small length of time, it has been converted into the Star Canine Breed of native Spain.
