KithnKin PWDs

KithnKin PWDs Breeder of Portuguese Water Dogs As a small-scale home-based breeder, my focus is on producing medium-sized dogs that excel in various dog sports.

I prioritize health, temperament, and athleticism in my breeding program to ensure that my puppies not only thrive in competitive environments but also make excellent family companions. The Portuguese Water Dog is renowned for its versatility and intelligence, enabling it to excel in agility, obedience, and other dog sports. My breeding practices are centered on responsible and ethical standards,

including genetic testing and careful selection of both dam and sire. I ensure the puppies are well-socialized from an early age, introducing them to different environments, people, and experiences to build their confidence and adaptability. Each puppy is raised in a loving home environment, where they receive the attention and training needed to prepare them for their future homes. I also provide potential buyers with guidance on training and sports participation, so they can enjoy a fulfilling experience with their new companion. By focusing on quality over quantity, I aim to contribute to the breed’s excellence in sports while ensuring that each dog is a healthy, happy member of a family.

On May 17, Smokey and Navy got to try Sprinter for the first time! Unfortunately, the clutch went in the lure earlier in the day so it was a 100m recall but nevertheless the girls had a blast.

Yes, they are both sporting their “naked” summer trims:
1. Ticks are extremely plentiful and teeny tiny this year (short coat makes the daily tick checks easier)
2. Smokey’s coat needed a reset after having the litter
3. Hoping to get the girls out swimming more this summer, as I really want to earn their AWD titles this year 🤞

Two weekends ago the girls and I attempted a new sport, Sprinter Trials. Even though the clutch went out of the lure system the dogs and I got our workout doing 100m recalls x 3.

Navy looks tuckered out in this photo! Can’t wait to see Smokey’s photos.

Not to be out done by little brother, Smokey and Navy received passing scores in Rally Advanced early this evening!!

Bodie and Hijinx experienced their first conformation show yesterday. At 5 months, they handled the busy environment, the new people, and all the stressors well!
Bodie got to see his “big brother” strut his stuff so was a little distracted while showing but that is to be expected. You can see Hijinx doing his thing here in the Best Baby Puppy in Group judging
