Hello and welcome to Maritimo Portuguese Water Dogs! We are glad you’re here!
We have been a preservation breeder of Portuguese Water Dogs for 20 years. Our purpose for breeding is to improve this wonderful breed and to enhance the Maritimo bloodline. We value quality over quantity and therefore only breed one litter per year.
Each litter is carefully planned with the breed standard, health, and temperament in mind. The sire and dam have had all the Portuguese Water Dog Club of America’s recommended health tests completed before breeding. Each parent’s pedigree is researched for health issues that cannot be identified with genetic testing. Our dams and the sires we choose come from AKC championship bloodlines, and are AKC champions themselves with additional performance titles.
Our puppies are raised in our home with lots of stimulation and socialization. Each puppy is thoroughly examined by our vet, given their first round of shots, wormed, and microchipped before going to their forever home.They are accompanied with a bag of goodies that includes comfort toys that smell like home, copies of parent’s health certificates, and a collar and leash.
Please feel free to contact us with any questions.
