Mudi health issues and how to prevent them

Big Dog | December 2nd, 2011

Originated from Hungary, the Mudi is a rare breed of herding dogs excellent in rodent extermination and guarding flock. They are known to be generally healthy and is very active with a life expectancy of about 13-14 years. There are very few health issues that plague Mudis and no known hereditary diseases are documented so far but that is not an excuse not to keep them in top shape. Here are two common health issues that your Mudi may face and ways to prevent them:

Mudi

Joint Dysplasia

Cause: There are some cases that Mudi’s encounter bone structure problems, joint dysplasia or dislocation in particular. This condition is common in large breeds especially those which has bulky upper body. Their large size causes additional stress to the joints that predisposes these to be deformed.

Effects: Further progression of dysplasia would be noticeable through the change in the dog’s movement and posture such as limping and favoring the unaffected side while sitting.

Prevention: Prevention is centered on the management of the Mudi’s weight as obesity adds to the pre-existing size of the dog. This can be done by making sure NOT to feed the dog a diet high in carbohydrates or proteins but rather a diet that is rich in calcium. Daily exercise such as brisk walks would help in using up excess energy and burn calories.

Skin Allergies

Cause: Poor grooming is the main cause of this health issue as well as tick and/or flea infestation. Existing skin irritation may also be aggravated by the Mudi’s constant scratching of the affected area.

Effects: The skin would be noticeably reddish with small bumps and the dog will exhibit signs of regular scratching.

Prevention: Mudis are easy to groom because their coats are coarse, water-proof, and does not matt. They do not shed as much as other breeds so occasional combing and brushing would be beneficial.

Research on this condition suggests that giving food rich in calcium and phosphate decreases the chance of it occurring. Regular consultation with your veterinarian would help in early detection and proper cancer treatment.

Playful Mudis

Big Dog | March 11th, 2011

As you can see in this video Mudis like to exercise and play a lot. They are very lively, energetic and alert dogs. Therefore the best living environment for them is a farm or the suburbs. This breed is very courageous, reliable and makes a very good watchdog. These dogs are brave and strong enough to take down a wild-boar.

Is a Mudi a good choice for me?

Big Dog | October 30th, 2010

If you would like to have a dog that is reliable, brave and devoted to a member of the family, then the Mudi is the best one for you. These dogs are intelligent, alert and are usually reserved, suspicious with strangers. They are willing to defend their family in case of any danger. If the dog has been raised together with children, they can usually get on well with them. Otherwise the best is to leave them alone only with older, considerate children. The same applies to other dogs and pets in the house.

The coat of this breed is smooth, short and straight that requires minimal, weekly grooming. They are light shedders. The Mudi is a relatively healthy breed, they are only prone to hip dysplasia in some cases.

Training of the Mudi is easy as this breed is very intelligent and obedient. They like to have a consistent and fair trainer and are eager to learn new things and tricks. These dogs excel in agility and rescue.

All in all, this breed is the best for families with children who would like to have a clever, dynamic and attentive furry companion by their side. For this dog the best living environment is the suburbs with a large area for daily exercises and play.

I hope this short introduction of the Mudi will help you decide whether this breed is the best one for you and your family.

“Catch me if you can”

Would a Mudi be OK for agility?

Big Dog | July 22nd, 2010
Mudi dogs are one of the most beautiful Hungarian herding breed.  If we want to get to know them a bit more, we have to accept that this unique breed has nothing to do with dogs in general. A Mudi opens a new world, shows us new dimensions… The Mudi has been working with people for centuries, it is ready to obey commands anytime. It was even said for a while, that a Mudi can read one’s mind. Its amazing intelligence makes it able to do any kind of exercise. It’s the same with agility. This sport is based on the cooperation of people and dogs and a Mudi knows what it takes to be a good colleague. They can do great at agility competitions, if trained properly.
