This photo is from Zoltán Pető's (rest in peace) Fehér-Morcos Kuvasz Kennel in Hungary. This pup, "White - Morcos Scserkész, is set off to his new home with his new family."
The puppy and the boy are about the same size!
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.”
From: Dr. Buzády Tibor. 2002. Dogs of Hungary. Translated by Bernard Adams. Budapest, Hungary: Nóra Kiadó. P. 100.
