Portuguese Podengo

Portuguese Podengo

DOG BREED

DESCRIPTION

Commonly known as the Portuguese Warren Hound, several types of this breed have developed, with distinct differences in size and coat. Today's dogs can be small (Pequeno), medium (Medio) or large (Grande), and some are smooth-haired while others have moderately long, curly hair. All were traditionally used for hunting, and in Portugal some are still kept for that purpose, either working in packs or alone. Despite their size, their intelligence and alertness make them excellent watchdogs.
