Summary
About Barbet
The Barbet is an ancient French water dog, medium-sized and sturdy, with a dense woolly low-shedding coat. Cheerful and people-focused, it thrives on family life, regular grooming, and active exercise, excelling in water work and dog sports, but remains a relatively rare breed.
About Magyar Agar
Ancient Hungarian sighthound built for endurance hunting, with a lean, rugged, athletic body and short, low‑maintenance coat in many colors. Calm, gentle, and reserved at home but needs substantial daily exercise. Strong prey drive requires secure areas and thoughtful management.
