Morning Conversation my Portuguese Water Dog

Moring Conversation with Vasco the Portuguese Water Dog

[@jayjokerst]

I have a Portie and I love all their different sounds! It’s like their own language

[@susannaernst5522]

For me, this is one of the cutest videos here on youtube. We watch it at least twice a week and our Portie Mayla likes Vasco as well. (To be perfectly honest, I think she might even be in love with him ;-) )From time to time she sits down beside our laptop and when I ask if she want's to watch Vasco again, she jumps up and down just like he does in the video. :-) The first few times she watched the video, she used to take a look behind the screen, where he was hiding. It was really funny. Greetings to Vasco and his owners from Germany.

That makes me so happy. Vasco sadly passed away in January of 2019 and we miss him dearly.

@@bvrnvsI walk a Portie that was born around that time 2019-2020, his name is Nelson and the reason why I stumbled upon this video. Vasco reminds me of Nelson when he barks for more treats, may he rest in peace!

[@FireCracker3240]

[@moekirby2613]

Very much like my guy. I like Vasco's haircut, but can he see? People object when my guy's hair gets in his eyes.

[@evan2156]

Vasco is very handsome. I miss my Jesse very much. He could talk to me also.

[@bvrnvs]

We miss Vasco too :(

[@ericavasquez1433]

Hi!!!! I love your dog he is so adorable! We are getting our first dog, a pwd, in September! Do you have any good tips on training or videos you recommend on training? Thanks!

[@ro31369]

I have Omar Little, a fully brown/gray, 3 year old Poodle / PWD (probably, maybe) mix.

[@denacuellar5388]

Ahhh, i named my puppy Vasco too, i say it different tho.

[@MyMac2011]

that's what my dog dos XD

[@cornyjoey161]

How old is he? Trying to teach ours to stay but he's so eager and I'm thinking still too young

[@mykalchrastina9601]

I started teaching mine to stay (I say "wait") at 8 weeks old. No such thing as too young to train. Great technique I used for the food bowl is to slowly lower it down to the floor. If the dog makes any movement for the bowl lift it back up and wait until they back off then lower again. Go through the process until you can put the bowl on the floor, take your hand off and return to your standing position while the dog waits for your release word. Only make a puppy wait a couple seconds then gradually increase the time as they build self control. They catch on quickly that lunging for the food makes it go away while sitting nicely gets them to it.

[@cornyjoey161]

Great. I've been doing something similar and we're making progress ☺

[@jsc5590]

Great video of Vasco talking! I'm curious, as a prospective owner of a Porti...do they all have similar desires to vocalize like this? Do they bark much? Thx! JC

[@bvrnvs]

He used to bark a lot...

[@geektoro]

Is his full name Vasco da Gama ? ^_~

[@markluis8473]

yes!!

[@DAYHatesYOU]

Are Porties good at guarding houses or are they good as guarding dogs in other way

[@bvrnvs]

They are great guard dogs!

[@ironman140.6]

Why don't you feed him with human food why pellets?

[@user-od9fz2fd7l]

Poor doggo is probably dead by now 😕
