Portuguese Water Dog

Description:

An illustration of a Portuguese Water Dog. A sturdy, medium sized canine known for its thick, curly black coat and piercingly intelligent eyes. Its ears are heart-shaped, slightly floppy and covered with hair. It has a happy expression on its face. Its muscular body well-suited for aquatic tasks with a broad chest and well-sprung ribs. Its tail is thick at the base and tapers to a point in a slight curve. It stands confidently poised with its paws making a slight impression in a sandy terrain, as if it is ready to leap into the ocean and fetch something.
