Summary
About Pumi
The Pumi is a medium‑small Hungarian herding dog with a curly, low‑shedding coat, pricked ears, and an alert expression. Intelligent, energetic, and vocal, it excels in dog sports, needs regular mental and physical work, bonds closely with its family, and remains relatively rare.
About Large Münsterländer
Medium–large, athletic German gundog with a distinctive black‑and‑white, ticked coat. Intelligent, people‑oriented and affectionate, yet independent with strong hunting and prey drive. Needs experienced, active owners, plenty of daily exercise, training and mental stimulation to stay content.
