The Mudi is a Hungarian herding breed that stems back to the 15th
century. Many confuse it with the Pumi or the Croatian Puli, some
even call the breed Puli, and the breeds share a common past.
This is a fascinating breed because it was discovered as a naturally
occurring shepherd’s type of dog. It might be a natural mix of the
Pumi, Puli, and German Spitz type of dogs. The Mudi breed counts as
naturally developed, and this is the last natural breed of its kind that
still works with livestock and shepherds.
Many claim that this is one of the best herding breeds. The Mudi also
makes a good companion, watchdog, and hunting dog. Like most
herding breeds it does very well in various sports; these are great dogs
for agility.
An average Mudi loves to play and swim. They will easily learn to play
ball or frisbee, and they make great jogging companions.
The breed is great for families with children, houses with yards, and
active people. Just watch out if the dog is left alone outside; they are
notoriously good diggers and can dig their way under a fence.
A Mudi generally weighs between 17 and 29 pounds and a medium
PlexiDor dog door is a perfect match.
