The Mudi is a herding dog breed of Hungarian origin recognized by the FCI since 1963. It is a very dynamic dog intended for work on sheep or cattle herds. It excels in all sports disciplines: agility, rhythmic obedience, racing, tracking... It needs to be given time to let it work. Like all shepherd dogs, it thrives by working and pleasing its master. It is capable of adapting to apartment life if you can give it your time and the daily activity it needs.

In a house, it will not tolerate having only the garden to burn off energy if its master does not give it activity.
