BigBay Portuguese Water Dogs

Lorraine is a responsible breeder of truly amazing PWDs. She is an example of what a professional dog breeder should be and her dogs are ambassadors for PWD's in Canada. If you are looking for a Portie, consider Big Bay. Excellent!

Just got our new puppy from BigBay. My 4 y.o. daughter is hesitant around puppies. Lorraine ensured that we would be matched with a pup with a suitable temperament. This pup is calm, sweet and perfect for us.

I’ve never had one of Lorraine’s pups but I’ve met lots of them. Beautiful dogs from a responsible breeder. If I get another Pwd Lorraine’s dogs would be on top of my list. Now all I need to do is talk my wife into it!

Also worth noting Lorraine is a great trainer with lots of ideas and advice

2nd time PWD owner. First time with Big Bay. At first it was a tough choice to change breeders. We as a family love are Portie and when we met Lorraine we knew she was the breeder we wanted to be associated with. She showed her passion for the breed and was extremely knowledgeable about the dogs and the care for them. She is very supportive through out the entire process. I highly recommend this breeder. Oh and her dogs are gorgeous with amazing temperaments. Very obvious when you meet them. Thanks Lorraine

Lorraine's attention to breeding quality temperament pups is what attracted us to her. This is not a puppy mill it is of high attention to sustaining the breed of the Portuguese Water Dogs. My wife and I observed a water dog trial or practice and all the Big Bay Water Dogs are very impressive. My wife and I just want a pet from this breeder, not looking to compete. Lorraine conducts many tests with the pups to insure the temperament will be a good match for us. Not everyone is suitable for a rescue pup especially if it will be your first pet experience. Breeders like this set you up for success. Beware of puppy mills, this is NOT a puppy mill.
