Polish Lowland Sheepdogs (PONs) make excellent pets, especially for active families that can meet their need for regular exercise and mental stimulation. They are intelligent, loyal, and affectionate, forming strong bonds with their family members. Early socialisation is essential as their herding instincts may cause nipping, but overall they are good with children and other pets when properly trained.
