[QUOTE="bssmith1220, post: 16802368, member: 31462"] Not new, just pretty rare I suppose. They are from Italy. Hundreds of years ago they were water fowl retrievers, then the area they were native to drained all the marsh land. So they were repurposed to find/dig up truffles. They are basically the original water dog and now primarily used for truffle hunting. In the 1970’s they got down to around 30 left in the world due to people cross breeding them for their nose. Efforts were made to bring them back in the past few decades but they still aren’t really popular. Our vet has never seen one in 40 years of being a vet. [/QUOTE]
