Whether you are looking for a loyal family companion, an active outdoor dog, or a Portuguese Water Dog puppy from a responsible Ontario breeder, Sharon can help you learn whether this breed is the right fit for your home.


Sharon has been dedicated to Portuguese Water Dogs for many years and has bred dogs that have earned titles in conformation, agility, and water work.
The kennel focuses on healthy, well-raised Portuguese Water Dogs with the temperament, structure, and spirit that make this breed such a loyal family companion.

Responsible breeding starts with healthy adult dogs. Dogs used in the breeding program are genetically tested and undergo health screening, including OFA hip X-rays and ophthalmological testing.
The dogs live in the home, not as kennel stock. They are exercised outdoors daily, crate-trained for travel and shows, and raised with regular handling and care. Sharon also feeds a fresh, species-appropriate raw diet.
This hands-on approach helps puppies start life with confidence, comfort around people, and a solid foundation for family living.

Portuguese Water Dogs are smart, athletic, affectionate, and full of character.
They were originally bred to work with fishermen, so they are strong swimmers with plenty of drive and energy.
They can be a wonderful fit for active families, outdoor-loving owners, and people who want a dog that enjoys training, exercise, swimming, and daily life as part of the family.

Portcolborne Portuguese Water Dog Kennels occasionally has Portuguese Water Dog puppies available to approved homes. Puppies are placed with care, and Sharon takes time to learn what each future owner is looking for.
Before joining the puppy list, prospective owners should be ready for the long-term responsibility of raising a Portuguese Water Dog. This breed needs structure, grooming, training, and daily activity. They are loving dogs, but they are not couch ornaments. They do best with owners who want to be involved.
If you are interested in a puppy, please share whether you are looking for a pet companion or a show prospect, whether you prefer male or female, and why a Portuguese Water Dog is the right choice for your home.

The Portuguese Water Dog is a medium-sized working breed with a big personality. The Canadian Kennel Club describes the breed as a strong swimmer and diver that historically worked with fishermen, retrieving gear and helping around boats.
Portuguese Water Dogs are often loved for their curly or wavy coats, intelligence, and playful nature. Their coat is low-shedding, but it still needs regular grooming. Most owners should plan for grooming every 6 to 8 weeks, plus brushing at home to prevent matting.
They are often tolerated better by some allergy-sensitive people, but no breeder can promise that any dog will be allergy-safe for every person. A visit is the best way to see how you react before making a decision.
A Portuguese Water Dog may be a good fit if you want a loyal companion for walking, hiking, swimming, training, agility, water work, or an active family life.
They may not be the best fit if you want a low-maintenance dog, dislike grooming, or plan to leave a young puppy alone for long stretches.

A secure fenced yard is strongly recommended. New puppies also need time, patience, and supervision during the first few weeks while they learn your home, routine, and rules.
Puppy training classes are also a smart idea once vaccinations are complete. Training helps with manners, confidence, socialization, and the owner-dog bond. It also gives that busy Portuguese Water Dog brain something useful to do.
