Summary
About Puli
The Puli is a compact Hungarian herding dog, agile and athletic beneath its famous corded “mop‑like” coat. Intelligent, independent and lively, it bonds closely with family, needs consistent training, substantial mental and physical exercise, and dedicated, specialized coat care.
About Posavac Hound
Medium, athletic Croatian scent hound with a short red‑and‑white coat and gentle expression. Affectionate and family‑oriented, yet strongly driven to track game. Needs 1–2 hours of daily exercise plus mental work. Generally healthy but rare outside Croatia, so breeders can be hard to find.
