Dog breed of French origin. They are good swimmers and were used by hunters to recover pieces that fell into lakes or rivers; that is why to facilitate their swimming they were made a flush haircut on almost the entire body, except for joints or parts that were more sensitive to cold. The name is a comparison with ducks (in French, canard, which has an ancient form cane) with the affective diminutive suffix -iche.
