  1. Oh my goodness!! It's a Pully!!
    Haven't seen one sense I was working at a vet. The groomer walked in while i was bathing him and said, ..you know you have to retwist his twists right?
    About 2 hours later, he walked back in, and i was still retwisting the dogs hair😅😅😅😅
    You don't have to do that after bathing😅😅❤

  2. An acquaintance has a Bergamasco, the Italian version of a Puli. His dog has issues, too, although they are more related to his need to rescue lost sheep – if you stop and chat with his owner and then try to leave, the dog will chase you and and try to herd you back in a most determined way. Tl;dr Pulis are working dogs and he is trying to protect his flock. Give him something meaningful to do.

  3. Graeme Hall is a fantastic dog trainer, no doubt about that !😊👍
    And he is VERY british -as far as I can see (I am from Danmark). After I have seen at least 20 videos, he almost always wears a nice vest, nice jacket, different neckerchiefs, nicely polished shoes -BUT jeans that aren’t put up!? That surprises me because it doesn’t match the picture 😉

  4. Hungarian Puli’s are amazing dogs. We’ve had several generations of them. They call them smiling dogs as they are always happy. They’re very intelligent and good protectors. Their fur protects them from attacks (wolves and bears), keeps them warm in winter and cool in summer and is better for people who suffer allergies from the usual dog hair. Their fur can also be used for making yarn and knitting jumpers. . They’re very ancient dogs recorded in history. Usually they grow up amongst a herd of sheep and helps the shepherd to keep them together and protect them. They have a great sense of humour too. I did have one little girl that as soon as I left the house, she would bark all the way till I got to the hills and could let her off the lead. I discovered when she barked it was at gates of houses where she knew a dog lived and she would wait till they barked back and run on happy with herself. She let them all know she was out for a walk. A few times she led me down driveways and I couldn’t understand as we had not visited that house before, then I would find out that someone was unwell there, she would cheer many people up. Sometimes on the hills she would bark and I would think what is she barking at now? Then squinting I could see another dog far in the distance that she had spotted long before me. I’ve never known one to bite, they love to keep the family together and get very excited in the morning making sure everyone gets out of bed. I’ll never forget any of them.

  5. Yeah, it's called 'excitement reactivity'. I just met a dachsund tonight who was just the same. Nervous owner, nervous dog. He likes our Mini Schnauzer puppy of 3 months, though, because she was smaller than him. We've let both our Minis meet and greet all dogs, it helps both of them. 🙂
