The
Italian Spinone is a versatile hunting dog, especially suited for upland
game and water fowl. They are a close working breed, methodical and
thorough in their search patterns. Their large noses pick up scent quite
readily, making it an excellent tracking dog. It's fun to watch them track a duck through water, or point a bird up in a tree! The Spinone is
an easy dog to train for the field, or anything else for that matter,
as they are eager to please. Their 'soft' point and 'soft' mouth speaks
to the nature of the dog.
This hunting breed is becoming
more and more popular in the USA as a household pet too, because they
are so good natured inside the home. They can be a real 'couch
potato'
when taken in to sit by the fire.
They
are very loving and enjoy being with people. In 2000, the Spinoni
achieved their own status in AKC's Sporting Group and have
been nicely represented in the show ring. Some owners enjoy doing
agility with their dog, or using them as a therapy dog.
