Italian Spinone

Italian Spinone
The Italian Spinone is a breed from the gundog group. It has a stiff, wire-haired coat that enables it to retrieve game from inaccessible places such as hedges, heavy brush, and dense undergrowth. Examples of the breed have a distinctive moustache, beard, and hairy eyebrows. The Italian Spinone stands between 59 and 70 cm (23 to 28 in) high.
