The Mudi is a versatile and agile herding dog breed that hails from Hungary. Known for their exceptional intelligence and strong work ethic, Mudis are often used for livestock herding and guarding. They possess a distinctive, wavy to curly coat that can come in various colors, including black, brown, yellow, and merle. With a medium-sized build, these dogs are both athletic and energetic, requiring regular exercise and mental stimulation. Mudis are known for their loyalty and affection towards their families, making them excellent companions and protective pets. Their keen instincts and trainability also make them suitable for various dog sports and activities.
The Mudi breed standard states that the breed is “sensibly suspicious of strangers”. Ongoing socialization is important for your Mudi, and you need to understand your dog. The Mudi’s family is his world. They are the most devoted, loving, and intelligent dogs I’ve known.
