Health History

At 14 weeks, she’s up to date with her veterinary checks, scheduled deworming, and vaccinations due so far, with her puppy vaccine series started around 6–8 weeks. Her family should continue combination boosters every 2–4 weeks through at least 16 weeks, complete her leptospirosis series, and confirm her rabies and parasite-prevention schedules with her vet. Her parents’ documented hip, eye, and recommended genetic screenings are important records to review before bringing her home. Her typical adult size is 35–50 pounds and 17–21 inches at the shoulder, with a life expectancy of 11–13 years.

Their Story

Her breeder set aside a little blanket for her first night with a family, but it is still folded on the shelf. At 14 weeks, she keeps growing while the space available for her gets smaller, and her breeder has begun asking rescues about taking her. She still spends her evenings bringing toys to the people she knows, hoping someone will sit down and play. Soon, she may have to leave those familiar faces behind without having a permanent home to go to. That little blanket was meant to travel home with her—someone just needs to give her a place to unpack it.

PupPath Mission

I was also once looking for a dog

I wasn't just looking for an Otterhound puppy. I wanted to save one. I dreamed of giving him a warm home, a loving family, and the second chance he deserved. But I had no idea where to start. I spent countless hours searching hundreds of listings, calling shelters, and contacting breeders. Nothing. Not a single Otterhound pup.

Frustrated, I gave up searching for a while. Weeks later, I came across a post about an Otterhound puppy desperately needing a home. This was him. The puppy I'd been searching for. I rushed to the shelter, only to hear words I'll never forget. "I'm sorry. He's already been euthanized." My heart sank.

He could have had a home, a family, and a lifetime of love. If only I'd found him sooner. That's when I realized countless other dogs were facing the same heartbreaking possibility. I couldn't save him. But maybe I could help save others. That's why I created PupPath.

Portuguese Water Dog Puppy Stories

Female Unnamed Pup — Portuguese Water Dog

Once a man collapsed on a secluded trail, his Portuguese Water Dog pup ran toward the distant voices of other walkers. It barked, circled, and repeatedly looked back until they followed it to its owner, who was lying hidden beside the path, unable to call for help. Rescuers reached him in time, and when he finally woke up in the hospital, his first question was whether his dog was safe. At their reunion, the Portuguese Water Dog pup rested its head in his hands, and through tears the man whispered, “You went looking for help when I couldn’t even ask.” The Portuguese Water Dog pup is ready to protect you but it needs your protection first.

Protect My Future Pup

Within days of coming home, a Portuguese Water Dog puppy had become his owner’s constant companion and the children’s inseparable playmate. Whenever an argument grew loud, he would appear with his favorite toy, nudging a hand until someone paused to look at him. Those gentle interruptions became the family’s reminder to soften their voices, sit together, and listen instead of speaking over each other. One evening, watching his children cuddle beside their new Portuguese Water Dog friend, their father whispered, “You’ve only just arrived, and you’re already helping us take better care of each other.” The Portuguese Water Dog Puppy is ready to take care of you, but it needs you to take care of it first.

Take Care Of My Pup

After an accident left his owner struggling to walk, a Portuguese Water Dog puppy began matching every slow step, pausing whenever the man needed to rest. Throughout the long recovery, it waited beside his owner’s chair and followed him from room to room, settling wherever they could remain close. When the children called the pup outside, it enjoyed their games, then hurried back to check on the person resting indoors. On the day they finally reached their old walking spot again, his owner sat down and held the Portuguese Water Dog pup, overwhelmed by the friend who had made every difficult step feel less lonely. A Portuguese Water Dog pup is waiting for you.
