Portuguese Podengo Wire-Haired Pequeno Breed Description


The Portuguese Podengo is an ancient sighthound/scenthound breed of dog from Portugal. The Podengo comes in three sizes - small (Pequeno), medium (Medio) and large (Grande), each with two hair coats (smooth and wirehaired). Each has a different temperament but all three love to hunt, as is their heritage and tradition in their native country. Typically, the dogs hunt in a pack with their human companion following them on large tracts of land with lots of game.

[Much more on this breed can be learned at the wonderful Wikipedia.]
