Like many sporting breeds, Barbets are prone to malformations in the hip and elbow joints, which can cause arthritis and mobility issues.Progressive Retinal Atrophy (PRA): An inherited degenerative eye disease that eventually leads to blindness.Because of their floppy, hair-covered ears and love of swimming, they are highly susceptible to moisture-trapping and bacterial or yeast overgrowth
Feed a high-quality large-breed puppy formula until at least 12 months of age.
Puppies should be fed three meals per day until approximately six months, then transition to two meals daily.
Avoid overfeeding, which can lead to joint stress and rapid weight gain.
Barbets can be prone to sensitive stomachs, so introduce new foods slowly and stick to brands that meet AAFCO nutritional standards for growth.
Because of their thick, curly, non-shedding hair that mats quickly, barbets demand high-maintenance upkeep. They require expert cutting every four to six weeks, frequent ear cleanings to avoid infections, and brushing down to the skin two to three times a week. For easy upkeep, a 1-2 inch "teddy bear" trim is a common cut.
Barbets are friendly, responsive, and agreeable. Agility, rally, dock diving, and lure coursing are all dog sports that Barbets have participated in, and make for great exercise and mental stimulation.
The Barbet is an ancient French water dog originally bred for retrieving game from wetlands. With its distinctive curly coat and friendly demeanor, the Barbet has historically been a versatile companion to hunters and families alike. Calm, intelligent, and eager to please, this breed is renowned for its sociable nature, adaptability, and affinity for water-based activities.
Classified as a medium to large breed, adult Barbets generally weigh between 35 and 65 pounds, with males typically larger than females. Growth tracking is important for this breed to ensure steady musculoskeletal development. As with many curly-coated breeds, balanced growth helps maintain healthy joints, avoids obesity, and supports proper coat and bone development.
