As the breed's name suggests, the Irish Water Spaniel is native to Ireland and is believed to have originated around 1000 years ago. Irish folklore suggests that the Irish Water Spaniel is a descendant of Dobhar-chu. Dobar-chu is believed to be a water dwelling creature that is half dog and half fish. The Dobhar-chu is also believed to have fur that has incredible protective qualities. However it is much more likely that the Irish Water Spaniel is a mixture of the Poodle, the English Water Spaniel, the Barbet and the Portuguese Water Dog. The breed's coat consists of very densely packed curly hair which sheds very little. Due to the fact that the breed's coat hardly ever sheds - the Irish Water Spaniel is considered to be a hypoallergenic breed. The Irish Water Spaniel's dense coat allows it to stay warm in cold waters. The breed is muscular and sturdily built. Interestingly, the Irish Water Spaniel has webbed feet which aid in its ability to swim. The Irish Water Spaniel was originally employed as a water fowling dog and was set to work on marshes, bogs, estuaries and rivers.
