Summary
About Barbet
The Barbet is an ancient French water dog, medium-sized and sturdy, with a dense woolly low-shedding coat. Cheerful and people-focused, it thrives on family life, regular grooming, and active exercise, excelling in water work and dog sports, but remains a relatively rare breed.
About Ibizan Hound
The Ibizan Hound is a tall, deer‑like hunting dog with huge upright ears, a lean athletic build, and smooth or wire coats in red and white. Sensitive and intelligent, it’s calm at home yet driven to chase, needs secure fencing, plenty of exercise, and gentle, positive training.
