Meet the breeder
I'm Lindsey F., the breeder behind Danca PWDs located in Lincoln, NE. I am a preservation breeder striving for quality, health, and to ensure the future of the PWDs for generations to come. As a breeder, I feel a sense of responsibility to prioritize the overall health and temperament of each of my puppies and to ensure that they are loved and well cared for prior to joining their forever homes. I raise all of my dogs with love in my home. I have high expectations for my puppies and make sure to place each one with an enriching and loving family that will match their temperament and personality!

Why did you start breeding?
I have always been invested in the well-being of animals. I wanted to give back to the breed by producing healthy pups and placing them into loving homes. It is such an honor to preserve the line of these incredible dogs all the while creating companionship for others.What makes your program special?

I work with passion, heart, and integrity, and I truly want what's best for the PWD breed. My commitment is to provide you with a professional and friendly puppy-buying experience, and that includes always having responsible practices when it comes to breeding, training, and rehoming my puppies.What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

Parent dogs
Harley, mom
Portuguese Water Dog
About Harley
Harley is a get up and go kind of girl! She is super loving and does everything with enthusiasm. She has more drive than most of my dogs but has been a wonderful companion, very eager to please, super smart, and beautiful to boot! She has a stunning, wavy coat that is a dream to snuggle. Harley has an amazing head and a beautiful expression, she is very well muscled and very athletic. Harley is a bigger girl, but otherwise very proportionate and still moderate inline with breed type.
Excellent health testing

Portuguese Water Dog
About Gypsy
Gypsy is quintessential water dog, aloof, opinionated, and funny!! She's simply stunning in a compact little body. Short back, stunning head, nice prosternum, and a lovely rear. This girl can move and loves showing. She is very smart but willing to do what you ask, even if she has to think about it for a minute or two. She's a laugh a minute and just beautiful. She's been a wonderful mother and thus far her puppies are laidback, super content, and growing ahead of schedule. Gypsy is just the best!
