A little look at life together.
Getting to know the Portuguese Podengo Pequeno
The Portuguese Podengo Pequeno is a small rabbit-hunting hound with upright ears and smooth or wire coat varieties. Make outdoor boundaries secure and choose coat care that matches the individual variety.
An everyday routine
Make space for substantial daily activity and short learning sessions. A busy weekend cannot replace a dependable weekday routine.
Coat care to plan for
A relatively straightforward coat still needs routine checks, appropriate brushing, and attention to nails and teeth. Ask a groomer to demonstrate tools that suit this coat.
Before deciding, meet the individual dog and ask about their history, handling preferences, and current routine. Breed tendencies are a starting point, not a promise about personality.
