Background:

The Komondor or Komondorok  as it is sometimes refered to, is an unusual looking dog whose coat is completely corded.  This breed descended from Tibetan dogs brought to Hungary several hundred years ago.  Bred as a sheepdog, the Komondor is a no-nonsense dog that will not hesitate to challenge a wolf threatening the livestock or a stranger lurking around the homestead.  It stands up to cold weather very well, and can willingly work even under appalling weather conditions. 

Personality:

Definitely not a housedog, this breed is meant for the outdoors.  The coat is unique in that it must not be brushed, but separated into cords.
