DISTINCTIVE
CHARACTERISTICS |
|
The bearlike aura
because of the relatively broad skull and the slightly shorter
snout. Remarkable eye colour, it is allowed to be lighter than
that of all other breeds. |
The size, the skull
shape, the low ear onset, the outline at the head and the
double dewclaws. |
Shape of the head is
slightly more stretched than that of other sheepdogs. The fur
has its typical crests. |
His arched ribs
distinguish him from all other white ones from Central Europe.
The head is heavier than that of the Kuvasz and has a
moderate stop in comparison with the Tatra dog. |
Fur is excusively
white. The arched skull and the clear stop is very typical.
Weight versus size gives him more charisma than a working dogs
for farmers. |
