Pulis – Hungarian herding dogs in corded coats
These remarkable dogs with their signature dreadlock-style coats hail from Hungary, where they've spent centuries working as loyal guardians of sheep flocks. Their corded coat can grow in thick ropes all the way to the ground, making them one of the most visually striking breeds you'll ever see. But there's much more to a Puli than meets the eye – beneath all that hair, you'll usually find a smart, nimble, and watchful companion with natural protective instincts and a passion for staying busy.
Here's what you need to know: That amazing corded coat isn't just for show – it's a real responsibility. Keeping it healthy requires regular, labor-intensive grooming by someone who knows what they're doing. Skip the proper care, and you're looking at serious matting, dirt buildup, and a coat so heavy it can affect the dog's health and quality of life. If you're thinking about welcoming a Puli into your life, you'll need to budget both time and money for professional grooming – or be ready to learn the skills yourself.
Why Adopt a Dog from a Shelter? It's simple: You're giving a deserving little soul a second chance. Countless lovable Shiba Inus and other pups are waiting in shelters like ours, dreaming of their forever home – your perfect match might just be waiting for you!
