The Spanish Water Dog is a versatile, hard-working breed with a signature curly coat and a big heart. Originally bred in Spain for herding, hunting, and even water rescue, these dogs are incredibly intelligent, athletic, and eager to please — basically, they’re the canine version of a multi-tool.
Their distinctive, woolly curls aren’t just for show — the coat is low-shedding and helps protect them in rugged terrain and water, but it does require proper grooming (no brushing, just clipping a few times a year).
Spanish Water Dogs are loyal and protective of their families, often forming strong bonds with one person in particular. They can be a bit reserved with strangers but are loving, playful, and enthusiastic with their pack. With the right training and plenty of mental and physical exercise, they thrive in active homes and excel in dog sports, from agility to dock diving.
In short: brains, curls, and boundless energy in one awesome package.
