Tips on Grooming Your Kuvasz

    Moderate Maintenance: The Kuvasz has a beautiful white double coat that sheds dirt but also sheds hair. Brush him weekly with a pin brush to remove dead hair and keep the skin and coat healthy. Trim the fur between his toes to keep his feet in good condition. His coat repels water and sheds dirt easily with brushing, so a bath is rarely necessary.

    Why Brush or Groom Your Kuvasz Dog?

    Brushing and combing your dog's hair coat is an important part of everyday pet care. Brushing assists to keep your Kuvasz dog's coat in good condition by taking out loose hair and preventing hair mats/knots.

    Brushing also serves to help to distribute healthy natural skin oils over the hair shaft, ensuring a shiny coat and helping dust to slide off the hair. This can also help to lessen the need to bath and therefore lessen the regularity of bathing.

    Brushing and grooming of your Kuvasz dog are activities that help to reinforce the positive connection bond between your dog and you. Brushing should be a pleasant and comfortable experience for your pet and you.

    How Often to Groom Your Kuvasz

    How frequent to brush and groom your dog will rely on each personal dog. Dogs tend to contrast in their need for brushing because of their coat type and length and also depending on their latest activities.

    Dogs with short coats commonly require less brushing and grooming compared to dogs with medium to long haired coats as these longer coats can get tangles, mats and debris trapped in them more easily.

    Some very short-haired dogs may not need traditional 'brushing' and for these dogs, owners may instead like to try a soft grooming glove to gently remove loose hair, occasionally.

    Dogs should be brushed 'as needed'. Owners should keep an eye on the condition of their dog's coat, trying to find any tangles/mats or dullness which indicates they might need a brush. Grooming can take anything from a couple of minutes to a number of hours a week depending on your type of dog.

Kuvasz Information

The kuvasz is a large dog, slightly longer than tall, and medium-boned. It is not bulky, but instead light-footed, with a free, easy gait. The breed's combination of power and agility stems from its versatile roots as a guardian, hunter and herder. Its double coat is medium-coarse, ranging from wavy to straight.

Despite its sweet looks, the kuvasz is a tough protector, fearlessly defending its family or home. It is gentle with and protective of children in its own family, but it may misinterpret a child's rough-and-tumble games with other children as attacks on its child. It is reserved with strangers and may be aggressive toward strange dogs; however, it tends to be very gentle with other pets and livestock. It is devoted and loyal but not very demonstrative. Some can be domineering.
