FAQs

Is the Pumi a good pet?

Yes, the Pumi is a loyal, energetic, and affectionate dog that makes a great pet for active families. Due to its herding background, it requires plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, consistent training, and early socialisation to manage its natural vocal and protective behaviours. Pumis are intelligent, playful, and get along well with children and other animals if raised with them.

What is the meaning of Pumi?

The Pumi is a Hungarian dog breed known for its lively, alert, and playful temperament. Sometimes called the Hungarian herding terrier, the breed's name identifies this quick-moving herding dog with distinctive tufted ears and a spirited personality. In Hungary, the Pumi is often nicknamed 'the clown' due to its playful nature.

What mix breed is a Pumi?

The Pumi originated in 18th century Hungary as a crossbreed of the Puli, an older Hungarian herding dog, with various Western European herding dogs and terriers. This deliberate crossbreeding produced the Pumi's intelligence, agility, alertness, and herding abilities. It is now recognised as a distinct breed separate from the Puli.

Are Pumi dogs rare?

Yes, Pumi dogs are relatively rare, especially outside Hungary and some European countries. Though they gained popularity in the United States in the 21st century and received AKC recognition in 2016, they remain uncommon and can be challenging to find, making reputable breeders the best source for acquiring a puppy.
