🐾 Tail Talk Tuesday – Meet the Komondor! 🐾

The Komondor, often called the “mop dog,” is a rare and distinctive breed known for its long, corded coat that looks like dreadlocks. Originally bred in Hungary to guard livestock, these dogs are powerful, protective, and deeply loyal to their families.

📏 Size & Build:
Males: 100–130 lbs | Females: 80–110 lbs
Large, muscular, and imposing with a unique corded coat

🧠 Temperament:
✔️ Natural guardian — protective and watchful

🏃 Exercise Needs:
Moderate energy — daily walks and playtime keep them fit
They thrive with space to roam and tasks to do

Their corded coat requires special care — cords form naturally but must be separated and kept clean to avoid matting or odor

❄️ Fun Fact:
The Komondor’s corded coat isn’t just for looks — it helps protect them from harsh weather and even predator bites while guarding flocks!
