#TriviaTuesday – Can You Guess This Dog Breed?
What breed of dog am I?
- I am a breed in the Sporting group; my name refers to ‘pino,’ the thorny undergrowth found in Italy’s Piedmont region. It was there that my all-weather, all-purpose breed was first bred to work alongside human huntsmen on the hilly terrain of Alpine Italy.
- I am a squarely and solidly built all-around hunter – muscular and powerful, built more for endurance than speed. My dense coat has a natural, unclippered look and comes in various colors and patterns. My face conveys the breed’s abundant Old World charm; I have soft sweetly expressive eyes set off by shaggy eyebrows and a tufted beard.
- I am sociable, docile, and patient, sometimes stubborn but always endearing. My strengths as hunter’s companions include intelligence, a great nose, soft mouth, the ability to retrieve on land or lake, and the stamina to work all day and eagerly ask for more.
