The 2005 Health Survey gave the PWDCA an insight into overall health, behavior, and living with a PWD.

From this information the first program developed is "Understanding Our Dogs" and will explore behaviors in the Portuguese Water Dog.  This program will be a focus of 2007/2008 articles and information in The Courier.  More information about the program is available in the Education section of this web site.

To everyone who participated in the study, Thank you!
