Puli

No other breed can be mistaken for the Puli, a compact but powerful herder known for its unique, profuse, naturally occurring corded coat. This agile and faithful dog stands about 15 inches tall and weighs around 30 pounds. The Puli is renowned for its sociable and wise nature, making it an excellent family companion. Bred to work closely with humans, they are quick learners and exhibit a strong protective instinct. Their dense, wooly, and weatherproof cords require significant grooming but add to their charming and distinctive appearance. Known as the 'acrobat of the dog world,' the Puli's agility and light-footedness are impressive. These dogs have moderate activity levels and thrive on mental stimulation, making training a delight due to their high intelligence and eagerness to please. While they may be reserved with strangers, they are affectionate with their families and adaptable to various living environments. The Puli's minimal shedding and low salivation tendency make them an appealing choice for those who appreciate a clean home, though their coat grooming needs are high. With a lifespan of about 13 years, Pulik offer long-term companionship filled with loyalty and delightful antics.
