How do Komondors achieve their mopish looks? Well they aren’t born that way. However, the coat will get this look naturally if the breeder “neglects” it. This is the secret of the unique coat of the Komondor.

Couple of key things we must remember not to do:

  • Do not brush, use comb.
  • Do not trim the coat.
  • Do not wash the coat too often.

Komondor’s coat naturally sticks together creating the look of a mop. Just like the Rasta hair.

Certainly, the coat should not be neglected. It has to be kept clean. None the less, the original Hungarian Komondor’s hair isn’t always clean as they are working flock dogs. The coat can get dark and have a grayish look.

Komondors are said to be an ancient breed from Hungary that were used to guard cattle from predators. By looking at them, they give a strong impression of courage and dignity. But the most distinctive feature of this dog is its coat. The hair is twisted to form tassels or cords and makes the dog look like a gigantic mop! With clubs such as the Komondor Club of America, prospective buyers can pay a visit to an owner of a Komondor and spend some time to inquire how life is with this dog as a companion.
