Hétdombi Kalandor Kuvasz Kennel


 Beatrix of Hétdombi Kalandor Kuvasz Kennel in Hungary shares this portrait of her Kuvasz.


This photo showcases the Kuvasz head shape.

“Although the whole dog is pleasing and well balanced, the most attractive part is the head. This is the Kuvasz’ most distinctive feature.

“In profile, the skull is only moderately arched–rather flat, continuing with a smooth line to a hardly perceptible stop and a long, straight nose.

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

From: Pál Sárkány and  Imre Ócsag, Hungarian Dog Breeds, Budapest, Hungary: Corvina Kiadó, 1977, 2nd ed. 1986, p. 101.
