Fun fact Friday with Goose the Portuguese Water Dog puppy 🐾

PWD’s were historically bred to be working dogs alongside fisherman. They thrive in the water and would herd fish into nets, retrieve equipment, and swim from boat to boat helping their human companions.

While we love and appreciate our purebred patients, today we’re giving a little extra love to the mixed breeds and rescue dogs who steal hearts in their own wonderfully unique ways.

Some come with mysterious DNA results, quirky habits, and the kind of personalities you truly couldn’t manufacture if you tried… and we’re here for all of it!
