I just spotted this site on a post in another area and gave it a try.

Would you believe it came back with only one possible dog for me - The Spanish Water Dog which is essentially the same breed as my Portuguese Water Dogs!

If I take away the non-shedding requirement, I come up with my current dog - Lady, a collie. She's perfect ... except for the shedding. My floors look like an old western movie with tumbleweeds blowing around, except the weeds are dog fur instead lol! Love her anyway!

Heidi, Porties are supposed to be non-shedding but they do lose little fluffs when they scratch. I don't have dust bunnies but Portie-bunnies that float in the air when the furnace fan comes on. Very appetizing when one fkoats onto a fried egg!

Ruth, If I add the non-shedding requirement on that web site, I get poodles and doodles. Actually, a doodle was our initial choice, but then we saw Lady at the pound and fell for her.

A neighbour has 2 Portuguese Water Dogs. They're wonderful! Beautiful temperment and lovely coats. Maybe out next dog ...

How did you come to choose Porties?

Cairn Terriers...even though they don't shed, we cut them down for the summer..now they look like Dingos... ("I think a dingo eight my bybee" )
