Raymond Lee Esh

Raymond Lee Esh, Portuguese water dogs, Gap, PA, serves Lancaster County near Philadelphia and maintains a small family-run breeding operation. He has been dedicated to this breed for over fifteen years, holds membership in the Portuguese Water Dog Club of America, and follows comprehensive health testing for hip, cardiac and eye conditions. Each puppy grows up in a home setting alongside children and household pets, benefiting from early socialization, daily outdoor play in a secure fenced yard and routine veterinary wellness checks.

Raymond’s experience as a volunteer water rescue handler shapes the gentle temperament and confidence he cultivates through supervised water introduction and basic obedience training. His adult dogs have competed in agility and obedience events, earning recognition in regional trials and offering a solid foundation for owners interested in performance or therapy work. Families note his regular photo and video updates on puppy milestones, thoughtful guidance on nutrition and a willingness to stay connected as puppies settle into their new homes.
