The Spanish Water Dog represents a cuddly companion that sometimes works as a hunting dog and demonstrates skill at retrieving from the sea. They are described as cheerful, energetic, playful, and hardworking. These dogs are so wary of strangers that they may growl, snarl, or even lunge, despite being devoted to their owner. The American Kennel Club states early socialization is essential for water dogs. Training must be conducted with love and patience for optimal results.
