I have just become the new parent of a Spinone Roan female. I keep waiting for that sweetness everyone talks about. She is very dominant and we fight all the time. Any suggestions?

I live i Pavia ( Italy ) , a very old little town in the plane ol the river PO . This is the land in which more than 1000 years ago (there are documents in Longobard documents in the 8th. century ) the Spinone Italiano was breeded. The Spinone Italiano is the " rought " brother of the Bracco Italiano ( Italian Shorthaired Pointer ). I think that the Spinone Italiano Is a perfect dog for working ( hunting but also as a family pet ) inside the variety and large territories and landscapes of all the lands of U.S.A. I found that your Website is EXCELLENT. Best Regards ! Mario Mangolini

Wonderful website! Very informative. I'm a dyed-in-the-wool Flatcoat Retriever human-companion that has had her heart broken too many times by cancer in the breed. The spunky Spinone seems like a healthy, wire-haired version of the "Peter Pan" Flatie. Spinone's are so-o-o-o happy and loving! I'm very much into rescue/older dogs, so I'll be contacting the California rescue coordinator in the near future. If she thinks I'm a good companion-candidate, I know I'll hardly be able to wait for a Spinone to share my life and home at the beach!

Outstanding website! I've been around sporting dogs all my life. I currently own Golden Retrievers and it's time to start thinking about my next puppy. But the health problems in my breed are scaring me away. I really like everything I have learned so far about the Spinone. I would like to know if there are any breeders in the Kansas City area/vicinity where I could actually look and touch in person. Thanks.

I've read of the breed in Gun Dog and recently watched a show about it on Animal Planet. A very interesting breed, and that from a guy that now owns a Drahthaar, but had a Brit before that. Please keep the breed standards up, we Americans have been known to mess a breed.

Could anyone tell me how much the Spinone sheds? I have read that they need to be brushed once a week. My son has asthma and I would prefer a dog that sheds very little. Everything about the Spinone seems perfect for our family. A dog that is good with children and can retrieve is of the utmost importance.

I RECENTLY VIEWED A PROGRAM ON ANIMAL PLANET ABOUT THE SPINONE ITALIANO BREED. I QUITE ENJOYED THE PROGRAM AND WAS INTERESTED IN LEARNING ABOUT THIS UNUSUAL DOG AND WHERE I MIGHT BE ABLE TO ACQUIRE ONE. I LIVE IN DELAWARE AND AM BULIDING A HOME ON A LARGE PIECE OF PROPERTY NEAR THE BEACH. MY FATHER IS AN AVID HUNTER AND WE HAVE GROWN UP AROUND GERMAN SHORTHAIR POINTERS. IF THERE IS AN INFO FOR ME WHERE I COULD FIND THIS SPECTACULAR DOG-LET ME KNOW. THANKS FOR THE VIEWING PLEASURE

Do you have adoptions for Spimone's, or even foster care? We are parent's that have a special needs child who LOVES dogs. We have a short hair Collie, who adores our daughter. We have always had at least 2 dogs at a time. We have 1/4 of an acre, which is fenced in. We are very active with our pets. We have lots and lots of love to give. We would like to adopt a puppy. Is this something you do? Thank-you.

Seems like a wonderful dog. I have been around dogs my entire life. I have been owned by 3 Irish Setters, a Black Lab., a German Shep., 4 Blue Mountain Shepards -a breed native to the Missouri Ozarks, and several other "tramps". Each stole my heart away, one way or another. But I have never found that "all around dog" I always wanted. ( I have a secret love of the "underdog" such as the Cumberland Span. and the Black Mouth Cur. I believe that I have found what I was looking for in the Spinone. Are there any breeders close to Montana? Wonderful web site. Kudos on the AKC recog.and sporting dog class. Please add us to any mailing list that you might endorse or have. Go in peace......RB & ME Jackson

I first came across this breed when I was visiting family in Illinois.I immediately fell in love with the soft eyes and "old man" face. Then not to long ago I saw the Spinone on Animal Planet and have been curious about this breed ever since. Your site is very informative. I am starting vet school in the fall at Purdue University and am interested in owning one or rescuing one (perferably rescue).

This is the best and most informative site I have seen on any breed. I have been doing extensive research on several breed's, and because of much criteria that had to be met, we are going to get a Spinone and are very excited about it! With our special needs child, allergy concerns, wanting a dog that did well socially and loved the water, and not wanting to much of a shedder as well as other concerns, we needed a very, very, special dog. The Spinone is the dog I feel is the best of all the breeds for our family concerns!!! By the way I have been researching breeds for about 1 1/2 years now.

Hi, I'm Barbara and I live in Milan, Italy. Two mounths ago I found a very old white Spinone (I think about 13 years)chained to a tree. He was in terrible conditions!!!! Now he is with me and with my family. His name is Salvo, wich in Italy is a name that means "safe", and I'm fond of him, I'm crazy for him!!!! He is so sweet and lovely, a special dog. I don't know how to clean his ears, his eyes and especially his hairs. So I was very happy to find some info about this breed in your web-site. Thank you!!!!! Barbara
