Keijo

Ellen of Barátságos Bolyhos Kuvasz Kennel in Belgium shares this photo of her young Keijo.

“The well-proportioned clean head and the almond shaped eyes indicate intelligence and loyalty.”

About the family of Livestock Guardian Dogs...

“To this day flocks are guarded in the hills of Asia, Europe and Africa* by powerful, robust dogs that are neither clumsy nor pacific. Despite the distances that separate them these breeds have much in common, and the Kuvasz is a member of this extended sheepdog family.” 

Dr. Buzády Tibor. 2002. Dogs of Hungary. Translated by Bernard Adams. Budapest, Hungary: Nóra Kiadó.  P. 100.

*(and now also in North America, South America and Australia)
