EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases the Large Rough-coated Water Dog, also known as the Barbet (Canis avariarius aquaticus), a breed that has been an invaluable companion to sailors for centuries. Dating back to the late 18th century, as depicted in this historical print from Mary Evans Picture Library, this robust and intelligent canine was often carried aboard ships due to its remarkable ability to retrieve items that had fallen overboard. The Large Rough-coated Water Dog, or Buffon's Barbet as it was also called after the renowned naturalist Georges-Louis Leclerc, Comte de Buffon, is a hardy breed, well-adapted to aquatic environments. Its thick, curly coat provided insulation against the cold waters, while its webbed feet and strong swimming abilities made it an excellent retriever. Sailors relied on these clever dogs to help them recover essential items that could have been lost at sea, such as ropes, anchors, or even important documents. The bond between sailor and dog was strong, and the Large Rough-coated Water Dog was not only a valuable working companion but also a cherished member of the ship's crew. This print, taken from the extensive collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the essential role this historic breed played in maritime history. The Large Rough-coated Water Dog's legacy continues today, as it remains a beloved companion and working breed, cherished for its unique combination of strength, intelligence, and adaptability.
