Portuguese Water Dog Forum:
not selfish

Chubby, I will not lie to you, these dogs need attention. I work and have managed to keep my boys happy with daily walks seperately after work. The need and love to learn. Read all you can on the breed before you make a decision. You have to be able to make the committment for the rest of the dogs life-about 12 yrs. They do need attention. I have to keep my guys playing and learning all the time. These guys think things through and you can actually see them thinking by their expressions. Be aware of genetic health problems in PWDS before you take the plunge. There is also PWD rescue. good luck

Please tell me about PWD rescue. Thank you
