    The Barbet is a medium-sized breed of French water dog. It is a rare breed. The breed's name comes from the French word barbe, meaning 'beard'. The barbet is a prototypic water dog, with a long, woolly, and curly coat. Their coats grow continuously and must be trimmed and must be groomed regularly, otherwise the coat can become matted.
    The Barbet was primarily bred as a water dog, excelling in various water-related tasks such as retrieving waterfowl for hunters. Its name “Barbet” is derived from the French word “barbe,” which means “beard.” This name likely refers to the breed’s distinctive facial hair.
