Weird Dog Breed: The Puli
The Puli is is a small to medium breed of Hungarian herding and livestock guarding dog famous for its rugged look that is covered with heavy dreadlocks.
It is not exactly known where this breed of dog came from but they date back over six thousand years. It has been established that the ancient Romans used these dogs as shepherd dogs because of their high intelligence.
The Puli is vocal and tends to bark. They are self-confident, brilliant, and sensitive to their owners. Many tend to act as babysitters and guardians of children and other animals in the family. They can be very sensitive to the needs of the the sick and elderly making them good therapy dogs. Although affectionate and enjoys the adoration of its owner's family and friends, this dog is suspicious of strangers.
The dreadlocks on the backs of Puli are thick and even though they grow naturally, they usually need to be groomed by the owners as they grow. It comes in solid colors of rusty black, black, all shades of gray, and white. It is said that the cords can grow to the ground which is why fur trimming is important.
