Portuguese Water Dogs that are Our Foundation
The early girl and boy Portuguese Water Dogs are the foundation of our kennel today. The boys on the page with a gold background are dogs who are part of our kennel’s foundation and whose frozen semen is available.
We think it is important that you know we track the health of these potential parents just as we watch the health of the dogs still with us.
You want to know that we know they are healthy!
