considered a historical area in northern France \u2013 Picardy. Just because of its primary habitat, the breed is called the Blue Picardy Spaniel. The region is located near the suburbs of Paris and covers the beaches of Somme Bay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first mention of the breed dates back to 1512. At that time, Louis XII thanked in a letter and spoke of \u201cSeveral blue Picardy spaniels\u201d. Researchers claim that the breed is descended from the Picardy spaniel and the English setter. But there are some breeders\u2019 opinions that the Blue Picardy Spaniel is simply a color mutation of the common Picardy Spaniel. That is why the Blue Picardy Spaniel was not considered an independent breed until 1937. Closer to the 80s, the breed was recognized by the Canadian Kennel Club. And in 1987, it finally got the breed standard and official recognition by the International Canine Federation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Throughout the world, the Blue Picardy Spaniel has not gained much popularity. For the most part, the breed is known to hunters in France and Canada. Its black color is not as much in demand, which cannot be said about its closest relative, the Picardy Spaniel.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"appearance\">Appearance<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>The Blue Picardy Spaniel is a tall, graceful dog with extraordinary zeal for the hunt. He gives the impression of an intelligent and graceful dog when you look at him. The physique is harmonious and well-muscled. The head is a broad, very expressive transition from forehead to muzzle. The ears are set quite low, hanging. The eyes are dark in color; they look attentive. A long straight back, deep chest. Ribs beautifully curved.
