We are located in Teton Valley, ID - Just below the beautiful Grand Tetons!

Happy, Healthy Bloodline

At Snake River WDs, we own family WORKING pets that happen to be Lagotti and Portuguese Water Dogs. We believe these water dogs are the best on the planet and the most versatile. We use our PWDs and Lagotti as fly fishing lookouts as we live in Grizzly country, companion on jogs, bike rides, back country skiing, antler shed hunting, and household watch/guard dog. These puppies come from a sire and dam with a rich championship bloodline, but we are not interested in a pampered dog that serves no purpose to their family. Could they be show dogs, absolutely, but we live and play in the Rockies and selected these breeds for their versatility. When you purchase a pup, you will be provided with pedigree backgrounds which are impressive, but ultimately, this is a working breed, and our dogs are bred to work. Our dogs have all been DNA tested and have been cleared of any genetic diseases.

The Lagotto Romagnolo

Lagotto Romagnolo are Italy's truffle dog. They have a curly coat with lavish facial furnishings. Despite their adorable looks, these dogs are amazing truffle hunters and can be trained to find anything with their nose. The breed's trademark curls feel and behave more like human hair than fur.
