Trained as ship dogs for Portuguese sailors many centuries ago, the Portuguese Water Dog is a cold-tolerant, intelligent and active breed. Originally responsible for retrieving items from the sea, herding fish into nets and carrying messages between boats, the Water Dog has boundless strength and energy. These dogs love spending time outdoors with family, whether on a camping trip, a mountain hike or at the lake. Adult Portuguese Water Dogs weigh between 35 and 60 pounds.

There are 600,000 pet dogs in New York City alone—plus 400,000 pet cats. The first official dog park in NYC was Tompkins Square Dog Run, opened in 1990. Tompkins is an off-leash haven for the city’s canines, featuring wading pools in the summer and two designated play areas for large dogs and small dogs. Outside of the state’s capital city, you can chill with Fido on the dog-friendly beaches, B&B getaways, campsites and countless eateries. New Yorkers stand out as usual with their unique taste, their favourite dog breed being the Cockapoo! That’s a mix between a Cocker Spaniel and a Poodle, and just the right size and temperament for apartment living.
New York City has more than 20 registered dog spas.
