Last one in the water....
A dog with water as it's middle name needs to be outfitted right. Imagine how your dog will look strutting their stuff in a new, brightly colored harness.

Our harness is perfect for water trials, going out on your boat, and just hanging around.

The pressure points are padded with neoprene to cushion the dog anytime it's pressing against their skin. We designed it for water work, but it's good anytime you need a non-restrictive harness, and want the extra cushioning provided by the neoprene.
Does your special dog need a
custom harness, one with the colors just right? We'll make one just for you.

....Won't have as much fun.


Everything you need to train for the Apprentice and Working Water Dog titles is in the
Junior/Apprentice Kit.
Includes everything you need for Junior and Apprentice levels, all packed in the Great Gear Bag you'll need for the working level test. Two canvas dummies 10' floating line, 3-handle fetch toy and gear bag.

The Book every PWD should come with

Written and illustrated by a long time PWD owner it's both a good introduction to raising a dog, and has tips for dealing with the characteristics that make PWDs unique.

The Portuguese Water Dog
Before there were radios and radar on the fishing boats in Portugal someone on the crew had to retrieve things that fell overboard and carry messages from boat to boat and boat to shore.

Many boats had a very special crew member, Cão de Água,(pronounced Kow-de-Ah-gwa;) their Portuguese Water Dog.

The were trimmed in what we call the lion clip. Long hair to insulate their chest, and front legs while leaving their back legs shaved to help their kick. Their tail acts as a rudder, with the flag (the long hair on the back half of the tail) out of the water.

The Portuguese Water Dog Club of America (PWDCA) sponsors water trials all over the country, and PWDs are eligible to compete, These trials are based on the work the dogs did on the boats. Retrieving equipment from shore and off the boat. Pulling fishing nets and carrying messages.
