    Only with that peeping nose you can regonise him as a pet.And the name sounds like "HUNGARIAN PULI"​

    Description: The Hungarian Puli is an memdium-sized sheepdog with a unique and distinctive corded coat. This heavily corded coat can reach up to the ground, making the dog look like a fluffy mop. The Hungarian Puli’s body is squarely proportional and muscular. The head is egg-shaped and the tail is curled tightly over the back. The almond-shaped eyes are dark brown and the ears are left hanging.​

    Dynamics: The Hungarian Puli is lively and cheerful. It is loyal to its family and is an excellent family companion. It is an intelligent breed that can adapt to most surroundings and conditions. It is not an aggressive kind, but is wary of strangers and annoyed by children that tease and are rough on them.​

    Breed Group: Herding

    Weight: males 25-35 pounds (11-16 kg), females 20-30 pounds (9-14 kg)

    Height: males 16 to 17½ inches (41-46 cm), females 14½ to 16 inches (36-41 cm)

    Color: The most common colors for the Hungarian Puli are black, any shade of gray, and apricot. White is rare in this breed.

    Country of Origin: The Hungarian Puli came to Hungary with the Magyar tribe thousands of years ago and is one of the ancient breeds known to have settled in the country.

    Activities: The Hungarian Puli has a lot of energy and should be given freedom to run around and play. It is also fond of water and swimming can be an exercise for them. The Hungarian Puli is used as a herder and flock guardian, and also as a family companion dog.

    Grooming: The Mats formed when the coat starts to “cord” around should be separated manually and regularly. Clumps should be torn for the tip to the skin. Bathing the Hugarian Puli is easy but drying it takes some time. Without a dryer, it will take two days for the coat to dry. The eyes and ears should be cleaned and the nails trimmed.
    Other Info: The Hungarian Puli has a life expectancy of 12 years or more. There no major health problems known within this breed, but it is still prone to hip dysplasia and eye and ear infections. The Hungarian Puli can adapt to any environment. It can live in the city, country, farm, etc. It is okay with any climate.

    WHY NOT IN WHITE????

    The Neapolitan Mastiff

    [​IMG]

    The Neapolitan Mastiff is one of the ancient and rare breeds of dogs. He is believed to be descended from the giant war dogs of Egypt, Persia, Mesopotamia, and Asia. The Neo's ancestors fought with the Romans in battle, and protected and defended them on the homefront.
    The breed survived mainly around Naples, Italy and has been recognized as a breed in the modern world since 1949.

    [​IMG]


    Originally bred as a guardian and defender of owner and property, the Neapolitan Mastiff is a massive, strongly-built dog standing up to 31 inches at the shoulder. He may weigh as much as 150 lbs. The Neapolitan Mastiff's massive head, heavy jowls, and wrinkles are compelling enough to deter any intruders.

    His coat is smooth and short and requires minimal grooming. It ranges in colour from black to light gray and may have white patches on the chest or toes. The coat may also be tawny or mahogany coloured. The gray or blue as it is known is the most common colour and the most desirable. For Neos working a guard dogs, this colouring allows the animal to blend into the night.
    Although originally bred as a protection dog he has a steady temperament, and is loyal and docile rather than outwardly aggressive. However, he can be fierce when defending his home. This animal is a stay-at-home type, and is good with the family. He does require exercise to keep in shape.

    Chinese Chongqing Dog

    [​IMG]

    General Description
    Chinese Chonqing dogs are of medium size and stature, with a compact body and stout, well-muscled limbs. Their teeth meet in a scissors bite and should not be visible when the dog closes its mouth in a natural position. Their pointy ears are erect and triangular-shaped. The gender difference should be apparent between males and females of this breed. Females are generally more streamlined with an overall feminine appearance. Similarly, male Chinese Chonqing dogs are more burly and well-defined. The coat of this breed is very thin and sparse, and it is a rich mahogany color.​

    [​IMG]


    Character
    The Chinese Chongqing dog is alert, intelligent, and perceptive. They are noble and dignified, and they are generally good with children. They have a propensity to be aloof with dogs they are not familiar with, but proper socialization from an early age can help alleviate this trait. They are powerful, muscular, and make excellent natural guard dogs. Because of their size and temperament, they aren’t suited for police work or other jobs that involve biting, etc. The Chinese Chongqing dog will alert his master(s) if there is a stranger or intruder in the house. They are very devoted to their families and will likely be a bit stand-offish with strangers in the initial stages. This breed possesses many strong, natural instincts, and they require a strong, dominant owner that doesn’t hit.
    Ideal Environment
    Although a small household or apartment isn’t ideal for the Chinese Chonqing dog, they can tolerate this environment if they are properly exercised. United States breeders generally won’t sell these dogs to people that live in an apartment. They require a half hour of vigorous exercise per day. They like to jog and go for long walks. Because of their natural hunting instincts, this breed shouldn’t be allowed to roam off of a leash. The Chinese Chonqing dog has a tendency to prefer a quiet household. They aren’t suited for cold climates. This breed loves playing in the grass.​

    African Azawakh


    [​IMG]
    The Azawakh is a sighthound dog breed from Africa. Bred by the Sahara and sub-Saharan Mali, Niger, and Burkina Faso, the breed is used there as a guard dog and to hunt gazelle and hare at speeds up to 40 miles per hour. Rangy, leggy, lean, and elegant, the Azawakh is extremely high-stationed, taller than it is long. Its bone structure shows clearly through the skin and musculature. Attentive, distant, reserved to hostile with strangers, the Azawakh is gentle and affectionate with those he accepts.


    The breed weighs from 33 to 55 pounds (15_25 kg); its height is 24 to 29 inches (60_74 cm). The coat is very short and almost absent on the belly. Colours permitted by the FCI breed standard are clear sand to dark fawn (with or without a dark mask), with white bib, tail tip, and stockings; many other colours occur in Africa. The Azawakh’s light, supple, elastic gait is a notable breed characteristic.

    PUPPPPPIESSS!!!

    [​IMG]

    Uncommon as yet in Europe and North America, they are nevertheless gaining a foothold. The breed is not yet registered by CKC or AKC (but is recorded in AKC’s Foundation Stock Service); it is registered with UKC, ARBA and others.

    It manages to balance a close bond with its owner with a strong, almost feline independence. They are attentive yet aloof. With those they accept, Azawakhs are gentle and affectionate. With strangers they are reserved and prefer not to be touched, but are not aggressive. Although raised to protect livestock, they do not have native aggression toward canine nor human unless they perceive them as a threat. They are also very lively and extremely intelligent.
