Latest Kuvasz Frequently Asked Questions:
we bought her to the vet and seems to be ok a day after. then a week later after being bought to her vet she suddenly feels weak and cant stand.she also cant feed on her own.im suspecting of somekind of a neuro problem...
Answer:I'd take her back to the vet.. Could be a weird form of hip dysplacia in puppies... My friend had a dog with hip dysplacia at only 8 or 9 months old... I'd take her to the vet, because more than likely it is something other than the normal.... Here's a list of what Kuvasz dogs are prone to: http://www.kuvasz.com/kuvasz/health.htm and Hip dysplasia - Hind end limping, back leg acts lame Gastric Torsion—Sometimes called Bloat. “Twisted stomach.” Osteochondritis dissecans—A common type of elbow dysplasia Hypothyroidism—An underactive thyroid gland produces too little thyroid hormone which reduces the dog's metabolism level von Willebrand"s Disease—A deficiency in clotting factor in the blood. Your dog may have: Panosteitis—So called "growing pains" in the legs of 6 to 12 month old puppies. The dogs experience an alternating lameness in the legs due to acute pain. Large dogs and especially German Shepherds are affected. The pain generally goes away as the dog matures. Or: Hypertrophic osteodystrophy—Orthopedic bone disease in large dogs, 2 to 6 months old. Very painful and possibly caused by poor nutrition. There will be pain and swelling in the affected legs. Look for lameness or a desire not to move at all, and loss of appetite plus a high fever may also occur continuing with the list of what they're prone to...: Deafness And much much more. I assume it is either: Hypertrophic osteodystrophy or Panosteitis I hope she is Okay, Kuvasz are SO pretty I wish you GOOD LUCK.

Like if you had an intruder trying to get in to your house or anything, would a Kuvasz do what a Husky does and just stand there or would it attack the intruder? Are their bites really that bad?
Answer:Originally used for guard and hunting.
are they kind of like golden retrievers? I heard they rarely attack anyone and they love everyone
Answer:They are one of the furthest things from a Golden Retriever. Kuvasz's are Livestock Guardian dogs. They are bred to protect a flock/herd. They are extremely difficult to own if you do not provide them with livestock for one thing. They are very likely to be dog aggressive. They will be protective of their "pack" and family and may be loving toward them, however they will be quite weary of strangers. They are not the type of dog that wants to please you (like a golden), they prefer to do things their own way. This makes them difficult to "obedience" train for inexperienced owners.
I'm thinking a kuvasz or an irish setter, maybe a dauchound or a cotten de tulear. But I don't know which of those dogs are capable of traveling, any opinions on the breed? I'm only thinking on taking a kuvasz, irish setter, dauchound, or a cotten de tulear, nothing else. okay?
Answer:a canary
