The Spinone Italiano dog breed can be an active one but it prefers to take things slowly. It is characterized by its slow trot that doesn't aim to just run off. It is a gentle breed that has had millenia of interacting with humans. They can be trained easily as long as they see a purpose in it. Spinone Italiano are friendly towards strangers but they will defend their family if under direct threat. They are affectionate towards those they know and are very patient. This makes them excellent companions for children who should be taught not to take advantage of it.

Country/Region of Origin: Italy

Original purpose: hunting

Name: Derived from pino which is an Italian thorn bush. Only the Spinone Italiano could get through it to pursue its smaller game; also known as Italian Spinone, Italian Wire-haired Pointer, Italian Coarsehaired Pointer, and Italian Griffon.

Historical notes: Spinone Italiano dogs date back to 500 BC. Their lineage is so old that there are many opinions as to their ancestry and descendants all over Europe. There was a point after the Second World War that they became nearly extinct. Most breeders had to resort to cross-breeding them with other wire-haired breeds such as the Wirehaired Pointing Griffon.
