Some rare breeds are the:
Ah, our canine counterpart. Where would man be without the domestic dog? (Canis familiaris). I think we’d all be still scavenging off the land, with no form of government or civilization. But, that’s a list for another day!
By selective breeding practices and geographic isolation, hundreds of dog breeds have been created to do man’s bidding. Some breeds never came into vogue, others never had large population numbers, and more have had their livelihoods See More phased out, and are now considered rare.

This breed is a Turkish Pointer, and is readily identified by its “split-nose”. This may be the result of severe inbreeding, or because the local hunters prized the fabled hunting prowess of split-nosed dogs over pointers with normal appearing noses. Either way, they are virtually unknown outside of Turkey, although they are prized in their homeland for their hunting abilities.

This is a Hungarian Herding dog of superior herding quality! Their soft, curly coat

This is a Hungarian Herding dog of superior herding quality! Their soft, curly coat and smooth faces can identify these mid-sized little wonders. Fortunately for the Mudi, they have been gaining momentum and recognition in the dog world for their excellent herding abilities and they excel at canine agility. There is already a Mudi Club in Canada and the U.S. See More This breed is still very rare outside of its native Hungary.
