I was raised with 3 Kuvasz in Sweden, my mother was Hungarian and she wanted us to have Kuvasz. We lived in the country side and my memories with these faboulus dogs are just fantastic. O yes they protected us from whatever we where needed to be protected from:))) but in the same time they where the most loving dogs ever. My Father was the boss and they knew that, and the way they loved me and my sister and my mother was simply amazing❤

[@DogCastTvEng]

What an amazing story!

[@seventiesgirl6449]

One of the most underrated guard dog breeds with the RIGHT owner.

[@lisbertelsen2334]

I had a Kuvasz girl from when she was nearly 3 months old. She was my best dog and got to the age of almost 14 years. In these years I had very small children in daycare and also had a cat and later on another cat and she never chased them as I told her not to. But she was on guard of unknown men and strong on a lead. She really is a big and amazing dog. And if you are good to her (which should be obvious) you will get the most loyal dog ever.

[@user-cg1ni7ub9i]

Being 74 years old and having a dog is something I grew up with, my dad always got mixed breeds dogs and the first dog I had when I was 18 was a malamute and his name was NaNu which is polar bear in the native tongue. He was a great dog and I took him backpacking on a 17 month trip I went on. The next day was a cross between an Akita Kuvas cross and his name was Ninja. Following his death I got a Kuvas male and he lived a long time- during that time I was raising my family in a remote area and often spent nights away from the family- I would always leave him to guard the family which he always did. After he passed away I was looking for a new dog and on a poster in the Vets office I saw a dog they called the Old Man’s dog - a wire haired pointing Griffin. Not ever having seen or heard of them before , well I found a breeder and got myself on. I used to hunt chucker and shoot ducks and lo and behold he’s a great dog and still with me- he’s 14 years old and besides being a little deaf is still in good shape . His is Huckleberry and call him Huck .

[@ToBeOrNotToBe-456]

I had a really nice Hungarian typical Kuvasz, I don't recommend in any way having one of these in a city - only if you have a huge house and don't bother of them barking at any noise (which may also annoy all your neighbors)... Mine one was highly intelligent, intuitive and independent. The type of dog that knows how, when to react, without being overly aggressive. One occasion I had the other half of the gate open without noticing, after coming home from walking him, and he jump on a guy passing by the house, he didn't bite him, just stood with his pawn over the guy's shoulder and barked at his face, so as to tell hem to back off his territory - I couldn't apologize enough to him, and the dog didn't hurt him at all, only tried to assert that that was his territory. Probably if it was another breed, it could have attacked.. Luckily it was Kuvasz. Really smart, lightly boned, extremely agile and protective, and very fast for its size. If you live under cold weather in a farm, an isolated countryside house, or a castle is an amazing animal to interact with.. The dog really cared for anything happening around and would bark at any noise, even from a long distance. It seems his temperament is typical of a dog that needed to protect livestock in huge territories against beers and wolfs, and his white fur was developed to blend in with the sheep for some reason.

[@georgelagos4411]

I loved this thank you. I had my friend Lucy for about ten years It was the best 10 years of my life. I’m getting ready to enjoy life again.

[@oberhasligoatfarm3085]

I have one. She has saved my life so many times. She amazing chased down a grizzly last summer. I do have to put her away with company she will eat you.

[@MVsFavorites]

Or, in the case of my Kuvasz, she will try to kiss you to death!

[@cortex333]

they would die to protect you and your family, wont think twice at all.

[@blitzen6622]

Just a slight historical error, the reason the Kuvasz is so rare: between WWI, WWII, and the communist take over of Hungary (breeding dogs was a rich Captialist crime to them) they were almost made extinct. By the late 1940's, there were and estimated 35-40 dogs left.

[@DogCastTvEng]

Dear Michael, the producers of this film are Hungarians. Between the two world wars there were no communist regimes in this country, except 4 months in 1919. In connection with past ww2 era, you are true.

[@jimsabo1189]

Always my understanding the Germans killed them on site when they went looking for supplies in the countryside. The communist thing makes sense as well, but like the other person said, that would have been after world war 2

[@invisiblelathatatlan]

They are beautiful too.🥰

[@HusbandnWifeDuo]

In his Book of Animals, Al Jahiz, a 9th century African-Arabic scholar and polymath, writes about traveling to Turkey and then to Hungary, where he saw "a big white dog, which the people called Kuwatz".

[@DogCastTvEng]

Very interesting, did not know about it! Thanks for the info!

[@vondobrogi8196]

von Döbrögi I had two kuvas in Hungary. At that time, I knew that a kuvaz was worth half as much as a German shepherd. I always said that I have a dog DIESEL. I can't tell you more about the shedding of the hair, because they were in the garden and it wasn't that noticeable to me. I don't remember that about kuvas. If I combed it, it was rarely. A sheepdog needs to be a dog, otherwise how would it survive the cold under the open sky? In any case, there are far fewer problems with him than with a Pyrenean shepherd, or a Polish mountain shepherd, or the kuvac bred by the Slovaks, which have long hair and need to be combed constantly. In addition, both dog breeds are barely 200 years old. According to my knowledge, all three mentioned breeds were created from kuvaz, obviously for political reasons. On the other hand, kuvaz is a noble ancient species that has been cultivated for thousands of years.

The first dog I personally own when I was 19 years old was a Akita Kuvas cross and backpacked for 17 months with him . I have always had a dog and have made a poster with all the dogs I’ve owned

[@roberttormey4312]

I’ve had four of them and loved every one of them. Wonderful dogs, but they are very suspicious of new people and slow to accept new people.

[@digiing1992]

How about the likability of accepting other dogs around them? I saw in the video that other dog breeds played with them, without trouble, but generally to what extent does this tolerance stretch?

[@DogCastTvEng]

They are a dominant breed, but not primarily animal aggressive, as they were not bred for fighting. They can accept easily everybody who belongs to the family (flock) and sucpicious with everything who does not.

[@blitzen6622]

I have had multiple Kuvaszok. They are accepting of other dogs with certain conditions. The Kuvasz likes to do the sniffing 1st. It is a dominance thing. If it is a larger dog that the Kuvasz thinks is approaching in an aggressive manner, it can act protective of me (the owner). It will be more relaxed if I show the other dog is friendly. Treat this breed with love and it is better than the secret service that protects the President and nothing on earth will love you more than a Kuvasz can.

[@Kenji17171]

@@blitzen6622 would they be good with samoyeds?

[@strayhound3842]

They put every creature, human or animal into one of two categories; belong, or not belong. If you belong to the family they are willing to die protecting you, if you do not belong you get the f... off the property or you die!

[@rogerio067072]

I have one male. With smaller dogs he usually aproaches to know the dog and show dominance. If the other dog shows agressive behaviour, in a second aproach he will remember and will not tolerate... With big dogs, better not let them get closer. The important thing with a kuvazs is to pay attention to their inteligence. They are way too smart, more than most think, that why they are so independent and try to lead, so you need to lead from very early with them or you might have trouble when it gets bigger and you need to teach them what is acceptable and what is not...

[@petervorobieff6822]

The best breed.

[@ToBeOrNotToBe-456]

If you live in a farm probably.

[@tindepapp]

I have two girl kuvasz. And they are hardheaded but when they learn who is the boss then they love and protekt without any condition. I love them every day more and more. Oh they do not like to be angry and loud on them , you simply must outsmart them 😀. And they respect you more and more as you work and relax with them. Oh yes they slowly come to be a family member. And I am happy to be a family member tho them

[@kaylahbasoco]

I have 3 little kids and we are looking to move to a farm. I want to have people on our farm regularly. Will the kuvasz be okay with that, or do we need to look into other dogs?

[@tindepapp]

@@kaylahbasoco if you train it properly. But kuvasz is hard headed, strong willed. It is not impossible,

[@rogerio067072]

Exactly. Dont try to lead by violence. You might get hurt since they dont go back... You have to outsmart them. Learn the way they behave and learn the best way to win. If you have space to let them run, beautiful, but if you dont, get ready to go walking with them to empty their energy...

Kedves Mariann, egyrészt, nagyon köszönjük a felvetést a megfelelő fordítással és dubbing-al kapcsolatban. Másrészt elszomorít minket, hogy felvetések csak ilyen témák esetében vannak, a helyett, amik a kuvaszok munkaképességeire vonatkoznának, amire lenne kereslet a világ számos részén. Természetesen szívesen beszélgetünk a helyes kiejésről, miközben ez a fajta közelít a kihaláshoz, lassan, a ritka sivatagi macskafajták egyedszáma is meghalagja a kuvaszokét. Mi próbálunk tenni értük, esetleg Ön is? Ez, igencsak rájuk férne a "jó szándékú" nyelvészkedésen és jóembereskedésen felül... Ha igen, örömmel számolunk be arról, mik is ezek a tettek. Ha nem, a későbbi kommenteket szeretnénk megelőzni. Köszönjük!

Perhaps pronouncing the breed name properly would give the viewer a bit more confidence in this video’s content. Our Kuvaszok have been wonderful, faithful, loyal, loving dogs.

Hi, the creators of this video are Hungarians. Kuvaszok is the plural form of kuvasz. Hungarians very rarely say that.
