The Kuvasz predeceasing breed is believed to date back to 200 B.C. as they are known to have been used by the Magyar tribe. The Magyar tribe conquered Hungary in 896 A.D. and with their conquering force came the Kuvasz-type dogs. The Kuvasz has traditionally been used as a livestock guardian and to also guard royal palaces. In 1978, a fossilized skeleton of a 9th Century Kuvasz-type dog was discover near Keszthely. The morphology of the fossilized dog's skeleton is almost identical to that of the modern Kuvasz, which makes the Kuvasz one of the oldest identifiable dog breeds as few breeds date back as far as the 9th Century! The Kuvasz breed became almost extinct during World War II. The Kuvasz breed was known to fiercely defend their families and were therefore often exterminated by the invading German and Soviet armies. After the war fewer than thirty Kuvasz remained in Hungary. Since the breed's near extermination, dedicated breeds have actively worked to revitalize the Kuvasz breed. Fortunately, the Kuvasz has seen an increase in popularity due to the successful work of the dedicated breeders! The Kuvasz is a large breed of dog that has an extremely dense white double coat that is known to be odorless. Despite the breed's coat being white, the Kuvasz's skin is actually of a blackish pigment and they have a large round black nose. The breed's coat and skin coloration are signifiers of the breed's history in livestock guarding, as they look very similar to sheep and could therefore camouflage themselves amongst them. The temperament of dogs is normally affected by the following factors: individual personality, heredity, training and socialization. It is therefore important to make sure that you meet the puppy's mother before purchasing a Kuvasz. It is also important to make sure to thoroughly socialize your Kuvasz with strangers, children and other animals during its puppyhood. Generally speaking, the Kuvasz is known to be an intelligent, loyal, patient and humorous breed.

While the Kuvasz is highly affectionate towards its family and people it known, the breed is very wary of strangers and unknown dogs. It is important to closely monitor your Kuvasz whenever it meets someone new or when it is off its leash.
