Meeting Rare Breeds!

Leonbergers, Bedlingtons, Komodor, Maremma (similar to a Kuvasz)... I'm sure there are others that are not coming to mind...

The only rare breed I can say I met was a Mudi...they're a Hungarian herding dog from what I was told. A group is starting a club for Mudi's in Canada so they might become more popular, this was the first time I ever heard of or saw one. The club might be in effect as this was last year.

I think Leonbergers are becoming more and more common actually.

I think Polish Tatra's are pretty rare. Here is one I met at a spay and neuter clinic that was a puppy. I just thought he was a Great Pyrenees.

Rarest dog I've ever met was a Schipperke, named Skippy... He was a friend of mine's dog...very cute, very sweet.

Mudis are GORGEOUS. I have a friend who is dying to get her hands on one. She loves her herding dogs. Lol

There was a dog show here a little while ago. I don't think they'd be considered rare or anything, but breeds I don't see around where I live. For example, I got to pat a Bernese Mountain dog for the first time a few days ago. Lots of beautiful dogs at the show.

Its funny how breeds get dispersed throughout the country. I know there are places where you don't see many german shorthaired pointers and to me it just blows my mind because they are as common as labradors around here. I think two of the dogs I saw on Pitbulls and Parolees once were gsp crosses and not pitties.

We have three entlebuchers who shop at my store. So random.

I have been lucky to have met alot of rare breeds, they are all so unique.
