Claudia W. in Germany shares this photo of Peter's Kuvasz, Ovid the Snow Cannon, leaping through the air in Austria.
This photo showcases the pigment of the Kuvasz skin:
“The colour of the skin under the hair is also slate grey, best seen on the belly, where the hair is less thick than on the rest of the body.”
“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.”
