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 Lakeland Terrier
Compact, hardy terrier from England’s Lake District, bred to hunt foxes over rough ground. Agile, confident and lively, yet affectionate at home. Needs regular hand‑stripped coat care, daily exercise, mental stimulation and early socialization; makes an alert, polite watchdog.
