Quote from an Owner: Irish Water Spaniels are a lot of fun (they are called the "clowns" of the spaniel family), but there is a lot of work involved in keeping them groomed. They are born retrievers and start carrying things around and stealing anything reachable as soon as they can walk. They're great watchdogs, and, like Poodles, they don't shed much. They love children, especially if they will spend time with them throwing toys that they can retrieve.    ~ Sylvia Foreacre
