The Kuvasz coat and almond eyes

A Kuvasz és Mi Alapítvány in Hungary shares this photo of his Kuv, showcasing the Kuvasz's distinctive wavy coat and almond-shaped eyes.

About the eyes, the book Hungarian Dog Breeds writes, "The slanting eyes are special, quite unlike those found in any related kind."

About the coat, the authors write,“The hair is wavy and thick, a real characteristic of the breed....The coat of the Kuvasz is very attractive.” 

The book is Hungarian Dog Breeds, by Pál Sárkány and Imre Ócsag, 2nd ed., published in Budapest in 1986.
