About Us

Linda Adams has been involved with Portuguese Water Dogs since 1995. She is a full member of the Portuguese Water Dog Club of America and a member of two regional clubs: Pacific Northwest Water Dogs and British Columbia Portuguese Water Dogs. She strives to achieve an excellence of temperament and health and be of a quality that will ultimately improve the breed. The dogs are well socialized and cared for in a loving home environment. Fisherman Bay Kennels is located in the beautiful San Juan Islands on Lopez Island, WA.

The dogs and puppies are raised at D & L Farms, a 10-acre farm established in 1989 by Linda and her husband, Duane. It has Scottish highland cows, pigs, chickens, and more. There is a victory garden with perennials and vegetables. The farm is taken care of with a 1949 Massey Ferguson tractor. This beautiful, serene environment overlooks Fisherman Bay, which is about a mile away.

The "It's Linda's" product line started off with blackberry jam. The farm has a third of an acre of native blackberries and four hundred pounds of berries are handpicked every year for the jam. It's Linda's also has Kosher Style dill pickles, Bread & Butter pickles, pickled peppered garlic, and seasoning salt. This product is in the local stores and sold at the weekly farmers market.

Other family businesses include Lopez Bicycle Works and Lopez Kayaks.
