We'd like to introduce you to our Portuguese Water Dogs that live with us underfoot. We do not kennel raise our dogs as we feel that a Portuguese Water Dog is for life and deserve all the love and attention. They have the free run of the house when we are present and are always a loved member of our household. We hope you enjoy the pics of our dogs and hopefully learn more about our family. Please click on the individual thumbnails for a larger picture.
