Click on the links below to read the Italian and UK breed standards.  The Italian standard goes into a lot more detail than the UK standard and provides a greater insight into the finer points of the breed.

We provide a comprehensive database of pedigree information for the Italian Spinone.  
Our databases are created and managed in the UK, and fall within EU Database Directive protection. They are provided for personal use only and all users who access any of our database information are bound under contract not to re-use such data.

Every effort is made to ensure our data is accurate and we would appreciate any omissions / errors being reported so that they may be corrected.

Hip Scores and CA Test results that have been published in the BRS and on the AHT website respectively will be updated by us on a quarterly basis. Health tests undertaken outside these two schemes will not be automatically updated.  If you would like them included you will need to send a copy of the relevant certificate(s) to This email address is being protected from spambots.

Alix can put you in touch with experienced owners so that you can meet some adult dogs before being seduced by that puppy.
