The Pumi is a lively Hungarian herding dog with a curly coat and semi-erect ears. Energetic, intelligent, and vocal, they're versatile working dogs who excel at herding and dog sports. They're affectionate with family but can be reserved with strangers.
Vigorous daily exercise and mental stimulation are essential—herding, agility, and training keep them balanced. Their curly coat requires regular brushing. Pumis are best for active, experienced owners. For those seeking an energetic, capable herding breed, the Pumi is exceptional.
