The Spinone Italiano

The Spinone is a large dog with a unique profile. They have a strong build and thick skin, a wiry coat, a rustic beard, and a large, bulbous nose. But it is the soft, sweet, human-like eyes that capture our attention and our hearts.



Our Mission is to promote the integrity of the Spinone.
