The Barbado da Terceira is a medium-sized Portuguese herding dog originating from the Azores, specifically the island of Terceira. Renowned for their loyalty and intelligence, these dogs were historically used for herding cattle and guarding livestock. They thrive in active environments and are affectionate with families, though may be reserved around strangers and can be territorial. This breed is well-suited for those who can provide companionship and space for their energetic nature.
