Historic and modern photographs for pedigree research ONLY. Research is "fair use". Contact the copyright holder for other use. c=copyright. If I do not know who owns the copyright, "Courtesy of" indicates the source of the photo. I include ALL PWDs that are submitted. Inclusion does NOT imply approval of conformation, bloodline, etc. This will, however, give an idea of the range of PWD conformation.
Photos are arranged by Kennel Club, then by registration number. Therefore, AKC is before CKC, which is before NHSB. For dogs with multiple registration numbers, the AKC # is used first. If there is no AKC #, then CPC, then the number most likely associated with the dog. We use the number documented in the PWD PSG database. (When I first load photos, this program puts them on the first page. After I fix the caption they will move to their correct spot)
If you know the name of the dog, you can use the search function at the top of this page- although it does not do well with English versions of non-English letters. For example, if you type "Diogo Cao Do Monte Gordo", the search will say there are no photographs. However, if you type "Diogo" you will get "Diogo Cão Do Monte Gordo". If you type "Planalto", it will bring up names starting with Planalto, Planalto's, Planaltos, or where Planalto is anywhere in the name. So- less is better! You may also search by registration number. If the name is too short, I will include the English version in the caption, so "Leao" will still produce "Leão".
