The Pumi is a medium-sized herding dog from Hungary, recognized for its distinctive appearance and dynamic personality. With a curled tail and a coat featuring tight, curly hairs in various colors, they have a unique look. Pumis are energetic, intelligent, and playful dogs that are both affectionate family companions and diligent herders. They require early socialization and regular grooming to prevent matting of their coats. Known for their alert and lively nature, Pumis can become protective of their families but are generally reserved around strangers. They need plenty of mental and physical stimulation to prevent destructive behaviors such as barking and digging.
