Although there are many dogs with peculiar physical characteristics, in PeritoAnimal we will make a compilation of dog breeds considered the rarest in the world. Read on and see the characteristics of these wonderful dog breeds.
Chinese Crested Dog
The Chinese Crested Dog is, without a doubt, at first sight one of the rarest dogs in existence. Although animals with fur can be born in the same litter, the truth is that the most striking are those that are born practically without fur.
By some people it is considered the rarest dog in the world, what do you think of this placement?
Bedlington Terrier
The coat of dogs of the Bedlington Terrier breed makes them look like sheep, they are very thin and generally tall. This is a hybrid dog breed, the result of a cross between the Whippet and Poodle breeds. They are incredibly beautiful and there is no denying it.
Puli
Pulis, also known as Pulik or Hungarian Puli, are very eccentric dogs, which attract attention at first sight. It is a rare dog of Hungarian origin with a differentiated coat, long and very similar to the dreadlocks. In addition, they are very intelligent and obedient dogs, easily learning commands, standing out as sheepdogs and police dogs.
There are also other rare dog breeds that are physically very similar to the Puli, such as the Shepherd-Bergamasco and the Komondor.
Pachon Navarro
Pachon Navarro is a dog of Turkish origin that is characterized by having a split muzzle, a result of genetic mutations that happened over the years due to crossbreeding of related dogs. Nowadays this division is more evident in some specimens than others, becoming a rare dog.
Chow Chow Panda
Treated by the names of Chow Panda, Pandogs, panda dog, etc. It is a specimen of the adored ChowChow breed but painted in black and white to look like panda bears. This fashion became very popular in China, generating great controversy around the world, as it painted the fur of animals and this can generate stress and/or allergic reactions both on the skin, as on the fur, nose and eyes. It is worth remembering that PeritoAnimal is against any kind of attitude that harms the physical and psychological integrity of animals.
