Zach, a
Purebred Portuguese Water Dog was
taken in by
Millie Rosenberg from
United States.
Here's how
Millie Rosenberg describes
Zach :
Very intelligent and loving. stays by your side and does not like to be left
alone for long periods of time. has a very load bark if he feels someone
is approaching. they usually bond with one member of the family. they
say this is because the breed had to stay close to their masters on small
fishing boats.
Does
Zach 's behavior show the inherent Portuguese Water Dog
characteristics?
Yes. portuguese water dog have to be engaged in an activity close to their owner. they
are also known as counter sweepers. their main interest is food. if
you turn your back your food will be gone.
Special Achievement of Zach :
You must be able to give your undivided attention to this dog. he in turn
will give his to you. he is very comical at times as he will not go outside
without caring a bone in his mouth. he gets along with our standard
poodle very well.
Millie Rosenberg's advice on what type of family should adopt
a Portuguese Water Dog:
You must understand their demands.they can be destructive if bored.
they need a lot of exercise.
