Komondor Dog

  Komondor dogs are a large, domesticated Hungarian breed of white, guardian dogs with a long, rope-like coat. These dogs are sometimes called mop dogs. The reason for this is obvious. These dogs used to be used for guarding livestock and other property.
  The Komondor is large and strong, ideal traits for a guardian dog, and its long, thick coat protects the dog from weather, vegetation and wild animals. The coat also looks enough like that of a sheep to blend into a flock and thus give it an advantage when protecting the flock from wolves and other predators.
  The Komondor is quite large, many are over 75 centimetres or 30 inches tall. The length of the Komondor coat is about 20-27 centimetres long and is the heaviest amount of fur of any canine in the world. The coat of the Komondor dog takes two or three days to dry if it's wet.
