Lagotto Romagnolo Puppies

The Lagotto Romagnolo is energetic, intelligent, and playful. They love spending time with their family and are eager to please to show their dedication. They are great with children, but their energy can be too much for smaller children. They can be wary of strangers and without proper socialization are prone to barking.

Lagottos are generally a healthy breed but could be prone to a few genetic conditions, like juvenile epilepsy, storage disease, hip dysplasia, or elbow dysplasia.

Lagotto Romagnolos are active and require daily exercise to stay happy and healthy. Their exercise should include both physical and mental stimulation and should be done with their family as much as possible. Obedience training and games on a daily basis should be enough to keep them content.

The Lagotto's rough, waterproof coat should be trimmed regularly and should be brushed to reduce the risk of uncomfortable mats.

The Lagotto doesn't shed much, making them a hypoallergetic breed.

Lagotto Romagnolos are known for their woolly curls that can be found in brown, cream, fawn, and sable. The fur around their faces feathers into eyebrows and a beard, giving them a distinguished look. Their triangle-shaped ears hang down almost to their jaw, and their medium-sized tail stands alert when they are attentive.

The origins of the Lagotto dates back to Renaissance Italy, where they were bred for duck hunting. They were also used to sniff out truffles, and are considered the best at that job.
