A Dr Dezso Fenyesi separated the Mudi from the Puli and Pumi breeds around this time, however, and indeed the Mudi's official name is Canis Ovilis Fenyesi. However, the Mudi has always been rare- the Puli and Komondor were more popular as working dogs. Nevertheless, the Mudi is a versatile breed, and can be used as flock guardian, sheep or cow herder, guard dog, to hunt vermin, or simply as a companion.
add infoThe Mudi is an average shedder. Comb or brush once a week to remove dead hairs.
add infoAlthough the Mudi can live in an apartment if necessary, it is really not suited to such a confined space. They need room to run and play, and need a large yard, as well as frequent walks. They can live outdoors.
