A Portuguese Water Dog Could Be Your Next Best Friend
5. Care
These dogs love to spend time in the water. Their coats should be rinsed with fresh water after swimming to keep the coat clean and prevent skin irritation. Dry the ears after swimming, too, to avoid infections. When training, positive reinforcement is often effective. Repetition without reward bores them. Porties are very smart and love to learn tricks to stimulate the mind.
