1910s - Quotes from Ottó Herman (1835-1914) about the Kuvasz

 These comments are quotes from Ottó Herman, the famous Hungarian ethnographer.

Did you know...

....that hundreds of years ago our Kuvaszes had the same lively temperament and especially the same deviousness? The famous Hungarian ethnographer, Ottó Herman (1835-1914) has collected these sayings among shepherds:

1. "Which Kuvasz swim the Danube once, certainly will swim it again..."
2. "He thinks up something like the Kuvasz inside ring-fence... (he solves a problem in a tight squeeze)."
3. "Kuvasz is laying on hay, can't eat it, but growls against the bullock..."
