This site is the main page for the Georgie Project, a research initiative dealing with the genetic makeup of Portugese Water Dogs. This research is the foundation for many of the advances in understanding related to the differing size of canines. It is possible to study the genes of the water dogs because the entire breed spawned from just a few original pets not too long ago, which limits the number of genetic variations between the different dogs.

This site is full of information and the main portal to the research of a very powerfl study in today's scientific world. However, the website is not very user friendly and the design impedes its overall effectiveness. The same information and links could be presented in a much more impactful way with the help of some one versed in website architecture and design. The improvement of the site would be a reasonable and important investment to help produce more interest in the project.
