The Barbet has been, historically, a working dog, known to flush and retrieve game, fowl especially out of water. It does not kill.It would be penalized were it to kill in a test, for example.
Very few work/hunt anymore, some still do in countries like Poland where there is game.
A barbet is a gentle and kind dog, especially with puppies, enjoys playing with children and other dogs.
I have always put the different generations in contact with each other because to me it is important for their socialisation.
