Summary
About Kuvasz
The Kuvasz is a large, ancient Hungarian livestock guardian with a white, weatherproof coat. Loyal and protective with family but reserved with strangers, it needs early socialisation, firm yet kind training, space, and experienced owners to manage its strong, independent nature.
About Old English Sheepdog
The Old English Sheepdog is a large, shaggy, athletic herding breed with a dense double coat needing regular grooming or a shorter pet clip. Affectionate, clownish, and people focused, it’s intelligent but sometimes stubborn, thriving with consistent training and daily mental and physical exercise.
