The dog of the week is a Pumi! Pumi's are extremely family friendly dogs. However, they do not get along with strangers because they are protective. The Pumi is a unique looking dog with it's very odd shaped ears. On their back is a tail which looks more like a puff ball. The Pumi originated in the 18th century in Hungary after a Puli was mixed with some other type of herding dog. This crossing has resulted in the breed’s unique coat.While the Puli was created to help with herding duties, the Pumi works as a cattle driver. Although they have been around for several centuries, the breed only became recognized in the 1920’s and has maintained small numbers outside of Hungary.

How to say "I'm the boss" to your dog, put your knee's and elbow's on the ground, get into the position of a table. If your dog reacts in a mean mood, that mean's he/she thinks it is the boss of you. Start to be making a barking sound while in that position. NEVER lay on your back when your dog is there. That makes your dog think that it's the boss of you, that's why it steps on you, or goes by you.
