About Barbet
The distinctive feature of this rustic, medium-sized bird dog is the thick, curly fur that covers it from the crown of its large, broad head to the tip of its curved tail. The breed's delightfully shaggy coat and amiable nature give the impression of a Muppet come to life, but the Barbet is a strong, solidly built dog that has been bred for centuries to be an avid hunter and tireless swimmer. He has a calm nature and is easy to train as long as his need for exercise is met. The barbet is an agile athlete that is primarily used to track, scare and retrieve birds. He has a cheerful disposition and is very social and loyal.
