THE FIRST WHITE PWD
BORN IN THE U.S.A.

  
"The special one" with one of his siblings from a litter by
THOR INFANTE DE GIFFORD x SEA DOGS CALEY CAROLL
breeder Karen Caroll

For centuries, well before PWDs were registered in Portugal for the first time by Vasco Bensaude in 1937, white PWDs were seen in fishing boats along side black, brown and even grey PWDs.
White PWDs are born ivory, have dark brown eyes, with dark pigmentation and blueish skin.
White PWDs do not develop ticking.

EXTREME WHITE PIEBOLD dogs born white
develop black or brown spots like Dalmatians.
